KSC register: checking a missing entry notification

Published 2026-10-28

Polish Ministry guidance for public-utility entities. Review correspondence and distinguish the verification process from an entry application.

What the Ministry explains

The 27 October notice describes verification for public-utility entities that may qualify for ex officio entry but have received neither an entry notification nor a request for missing information. It primarily addresses relevant municipal companies. It does not mean every public company automatically falls within KSC.

This is procedural guidance, not a security incident or a new compliance confirmation. Legal grounds for entry and technical security requirements are separate questions.

Check correspondence before choosing the process

Check e-Doręczenia and paper correspondence. If a notification arrived, follow the request to supplement information. If none arrived and ex officio entry may apply, use the official Ministry notice linking to its verification form. That form is not an application for entry.

LS Core recommends assigning responsibility for correspondence and correctly identifying the legal entity. Retain dates, the basis for actions and acknowledgements. Do not supply information through a form found in an unverified email.

Clarify organisational ownership

LS Core recommends coordinating the matter between management, legal and IT owners. Establish who may represent the entity, where correspondence arrives and how it reaches the responsible person. No letter in one inbox is not a sufficient basis for deciding the organisation's status.

An online self-assessment does not replace the formal process. Resolve entry questions with the competent institution or legal adviser using current facts.

Separate technical preparation from classification

LS Core can help define an agreed technical review, identify gaps and plan remediation. Such a review is not a statutory KSC audit, legal status confirmation or compliance guarantee.

LS Core recommends identifying system owners, recording available configuration and maintenance evidence and prioritising changes. Preparing technical information helps coordination but does not replace resolution of formal questions.
