(1) As long as a fact required to be entered in the Commercial Register has not been entered and no notice has been given of it by publication, the person in respect of whose affairs it ought to have been entered cannot invoke it against a third party, unless the third party knew of such fact.
(2) If the fact has been entered and notice has been given of it by publication, then a third party must allow it to be asserted against them. This does not apply with regard to legal acts effected within fifteen days of the notice by publication, if the third party proves that they neither knew nor ought to have known of the fact.
(3) If a fact required to be entered that has been published has been registered incorrectly, then a third party may invoke the published fact against the person in respect of whose affairs the fact was entered, unless the third party knew of the inaccuracy.
(4) With regard to business transactions with a branch office that is registered in the Commercial Register and belongs to an enterprise that has its seat or main office abroad, the registration and notice by publication by the court of the branch office is determinative for the purpose of these provisions.
(5) Subsections (1) to (3) are not to be applied with regard to the information entered in the register page of a share capital company where such information relates to a branch office of the company located abroad.
