The best business registration sites are single windows that provide one online application for all mandatory registrations, easy digital payment and certificates confirming successful registrations. At a minimum, users need informational websites that explain the mandatory steps to register their businesses, links to necessary downloadable forms, legal justifications for the required steps, and a contact point for questions and complaints.

The GER green dot rating system indicates which countries’ websites provide these basics, so entrepreneurs can process their applications online (single windows) or at least know what to do, why to do it, and how to do it (information portals).
