I’ve used LEI.net for both LEI registration and LEI renewal for my firm. The website form is so simple that the whole process barely takes a few minutes. Every time, the service has been reliable and fast. Highly recommend LEI.net for all LEI code related needs in India.
As a first-time applicant for LEI registration in India, I thought it might be complicated. But on LEI.net, the process was just filling out one form online and the team took care of the rest. I got my LEI code quickly and hassle-free.
I recently did an LEI transfer from another provider to LEI.net. The online form was very easy to complete, and the support team guided me throughout the transfer. Everything was managed seamlessly, and now my LEI number is active under LEI.net.
My LEI renewal was due, and I used LEI.net for the first time. The renewal form on their website was quick to fill out, and the team kept me updated at every step. I got my LEI renewed without any stress. Easiest renewal experience I’ve had with this company.
I applied for my company’s LEI code through LEI.net and the process was extremely simple. All I had to do was fill out a short form on their website, and within no time my LEI number was issued. Very smooth experience for LEI registration in India!
