APPLICATION for the issuance of a certificate of attestation regarding obligations to the Environmental Fund and Declaration on own responsibility*
The certificate of attestation regarding the obligations to the Environmental Fund is issued according to the procedure for issuing the certificate of attestation approved by Order no. 594 of June 9, 2006 for the approval of the Certificate of attestation regarding the obligations to the Environmental Fund, upon request, by the Environmental Fund Administration, within a maximum of 10 working days from the date of registration of the release request, if the monthly declarative situation for the last 5 fiscal years is complete and correctly prepared.
In case the declarative situation for the last 5 fiscal years is incomplete/incorrect or if the company does not submit all the documents necessary for the issuance of the certificate of attestation, according to the above-mentioned notes, the EFA will not be able to issue the certificate of attestation and will send a notification in this sense, to the company's headquarters.
