What is an LEI (Legal Entity Identifier)?
An LEI is a 20-character alphanumeric code under the ISO 17442 standard that identifies a legal entity in financial transactions anywhere in the world. It is issued by an LEI issuer accredited by the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) and published in GLEIF’s public database, so banks and regulators can see exactly who is on each side of a transaction.
What an LEI record shows
- Legal name and registered address of your entity
- Registration authority and number (for example CIN or LLPIN)
- Direct and ultimate parent entity, where applicable
- Status and next renewal date of the LEI
Good to know
- An LEI is valid for 1 year; you can choose up to 5 years at once.
- The code stays the same for life, even if you renew or transfer it.
- It is not a replacement for PAN, CIN or GSTIN — it sits alongside them.
Who needs an LEI in India?
The Reserve Bank of India and SEBI require an LEI in the situations below. Your bank may also ask for one in other cases.
₹5 crore+ exposure
Non-individual borrowers with total fund and non-fund based exposure of ₹5 crore or more from banks and NBFCs.
₹50 crore+ RTGS / NEFT
Non-individual remitters and beneficiaries of single RTGS or NEFT transactions of ₹50 crore or more.

LEI renewal: keep your code active
An LEI that is not renewed shows as “lapsed” in the global database, and banks can refuse transactions that need a valid LEI.
How renewal works
- Renew before the next renewal date shown on your LEI record
- Confirm or update your entity and parent details
- Choose 1 to 5 more years of validity
- Your LEI number does not change
Common reasons an LEI gets delayed
- Entity name differs between PAN, certificate and application
- Old registered address still on one document
- Parent company details missing or unclear
- Authorisation signed by someone not on record

LEI registration – frequently asked questions
What is an LEI?
A Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a 20-character alphanumeric code under the ISO 17442 standard that uniquely identifies a legal entity taking part in financial transactions. LEIs are issued by LEI issuers (Local Operating Units) accredited by the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF), and every LEI is listed in GLEIF’s public global database.
Who needs an LEI in India?
Under RBI directions, non-individual borrowers with total bank or NBFC exposure of ₹5 crore or more, parties to RTGS or NEFT payments of ₹50 crore or more, entities making cross-border transactions of ₹50 crore or more, and non-individual participants in forex, derivatives, government securities and money markets need an LEI. SEBI also requires issuers of listed debt securities to have one. Banks may ask for it in other cases too.
What is your fee for LEI registration?
Our professional fee is ₹1,999 + GST, the same whether you choose 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 years of validity. The LEI issuer (government) fee is extra, charged at actuals, and increases with the number of years you choose. We confirm the exact total before you pay.
How long does it take to get an LEI?
Usually 2–3 working days after we receive complete and correct documents. The LEI is issued by the LEI issuer after it validates your entity’s details, so a mismatch in name, address or registration number can add time; we check these before filing.
How long is an LEI valid?
An LEI is valid for one year from the date of issue and must be renewed before it lapses. You can also choose a multi-year validity of up to 5 years, which saves you from annual renewals.
What happens if my LEI lapses?
There is no monetary penalty, but a lapsed LEI can stop your bank from processing large-value payments, credit facilities or market transactions that require a valid LEI. It is safest to renew before the expiry date.
What documents are required for LEI registration?
Usually the entity’s registration certificate (certificate of incorporation, partnership deed or trust deed), the entity’s PAN, an authorisation letter or board resolution for the signatory, address details, and information on the direct and ultimate parent company, if any. Some issuers also ask for the latest financial statements.
Can a partnership firm, trust or NGO get an LEI?
Yes. Companies, LLPs, partnership firms, trusts, societies and Section 8 companies can get an LEI. Individuals acting in a personal capacity are generally not covered; if you are unsure about your entity type, WhatsApp us and we will confirm.
Can I renew or transfer my existing LEI through you?
Yes, we help with LEI renewal and with transferring an existing LEI from another provider. Your LEI number stays the same after a transfer. Our professional fee for LEI renewal is ₹1,599 + GST, plus the LEI issuer (government) fee at actuals.
Is the LEI the same as CIN, PAN or GSTIN?
No. CIN, PAN and GSTIN are Indian identification numbers. The LEI is a global identifier used by banks and regulators worldwide to identify the parties to a financial transaction.
