The law states that a special limited partnership (SLP - or société en commandite spéciale - SCSp) must keep a register. What shall this register contain? The register of an SLP shall include the following items:

1. A complete and true copy of an up-to-date version (“copie intégrale et conforme”) of the partnership agreement;

2. A list of all partners, including:

   1. for natural persons:

      1. their surname; 

      2. their first name; 

      3. their profession; and 

      4. their private or professional address; 

   2. for partners who are legal entities:

      1. their company name;

      2. their legal form;

      3. their precise address;

      4. their registration number in the trade and companies register (if the legislation to which the company is subject provides for such a number);

   3. the partnership interest held by each partner;

3. A record of all transfers of issued partnership interests as well as: 

   1. the date of notification; or 

   2. acceptance of such transfers.
