Customer wants a signature or declaration with the answer

You sign yourself; we only fill in the answers

A signed statement is a document with a date, a name, and a signature from someone authorized to sign on behalf of the company — often a director or a proxy holder. This is different from answering a question in a questionnaire. Supplia fills in the factual answers from the chain file and you confirm them one by one, but a signature is a legal act that remains with the company itself. We do not sign it, and we do not draft text that serves as a statement — that would come too close to drafting a legal document that we cannot back up with a source.

What often helps: the request for a statement usually concerns data that is already in the file, but the client now wants it in a formal format. Think of a confirmation of the legal name of the company or of the registration number under which the enterprise is registered. You retrieve that data from the file and put it yourself on letterhead, with a signature. Supplia can provide the answer that should appear in the statement, not the statement itself.

Why identity data form the basis

The data that usually appear in such a statement — name, legal form, registration number, registered address — are the same data that are recorded for every company under the Trade Register Act 2007. That is why Supplia can provide this data as factual information: it is uniquely recorded and not dependent on interpretation. As soon as the client asks for an assessment, a commitment, or a signature that goes beyond adopting those facts, that falls outside what an answer system can fill in — it remains with the company and the person authorized to sign.

This answer applies to every type of questionnaire, not only to the cyber questions from your customer, answer it. The full explanation — with the sources, country-specific details and related topics — is on the hub.
