Article 10 Particulars to be stated in the documents

The law applicable, in the Member State where the SCE has its registered office, to public limited-liability companies regulating the content of the letters and documents sent to third parties shall apply by analogy to that SCE. The name of the SCE shall be preceded or followed by the abbreviation ‘SCE’ and, where appropriate, by the word ‘limited’.

Only SCEs may include the acronym ‘SCE’ before or after their name in order to determine their legal form.

Nevertheless, companies, firms and other legal entities registered in a Member State before the date of entry into force of this Regulation in the names of which the acronym ‘SCE’ appears shall not be required to alter their names.
