Commonly asked Colombia Legal Representative questions
How do I control my approval with Emergo as my Legal Representative?
When companies register through a local distributor, instead of an independent lawyer/legal representative, the distributor will often list themselves as an owner on the registration, along with the foreign manufacturer. In this case, this means that any future modifications, such as adding a new distributor, models, etc., would need to be approved by both the manufacturer and the distributor. As your Legal Representative, Emergo will register your devices in only your name, ensuring that no other companies are listed that would limit your control over your approval.
Can I transfer my registration to another local registration holder?
Registrations can be transferred in Colombia as long as the original owner(s) will agree. If the owner includes a distributor, they usually are not willing to give up control of an application, and often companies need to submit a new application. If you select Emergo as your legal representative, then you can move or change your registration as needed, since we will submit the applications with you as the owner and controller of the registrations.
