The type of the business.
At the time of publication, there is no agreed set of company types that crosses borders. The term "SA" is used in Poland and France for example although they mean slightly different things. The UK's LLP and Greece's EPE provide further example of close, but not exact, matches. That said, each jurisdiction will have a limited set of recognised company types and these should be used in a consistent manner.
