The EUID is specified in chapter 9 of the Annex contained in the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1042 which describes rules for the application of Directive (EU) 2017/1132 “relating to certain aspects of company law (codification)”. The ballot also includes several editorial corrections, (e.g., reordering of References and regrouping of information from Appendix A to Section 7.1.4.2.2 (d)).
