EU Inc and the 28th Regime: A major step for European company registration — and a reality check across the border

Congratulations to EU Inc, the 28th Regime, and the European Union.
This is a meaningful step toward a truly functional single market for founders—where Company registration becomes faster, simpler, and consistent across borders. Europe has long been held back by fragmentation: different legal setups, different administrative requirements, and different timelines depending on where you incorporate.
The promise of the 28th Regime is straightforward: reduce complexity, improve predictability, and make it easier to build and scale companies in Europe without being forced into country-by-country workarounds.
Meanwhile in Norway…
Cross-border registration from the EU into Norway is still dominated by manual processes:
- blue-ink signatures
- physical submissions by mail
- replies delivered by mail
- high government fees when establishing
- heavy bureaucracy and long case processing times
Norway has strong digital ambitions in public services. But in this specific niche, there remains a significant gap between stated goals and operational reality.
Intermediary AS is working on implementing its technology in Norway.
