When preparing the application form

The form asks for detailed information on areas such as the institution's information systems, business model, internal control and risk management structure. For this reason, completing the form requires technical, legal and finance teams to work together.

Missing or contradictory information prolongs the process. Before applying, the documents should be reviewed against a single checklist and version consistency should be ensured.

The current version of the form should be obtained from the competent institution's website, because forms may be renewed depending on regulatory changes.
