By completing the registration process organisations establish their eligibility to apply for funds. The three main categories of eligible applicant organisations are:
- Public Sector
- Voluntary or Charitable Organisations
- Joint Ventures (Public/Private Partnerships)
This process applies to organisations that are new to European Structural Funds and those that have received funding under previous Structural Funds Programmes.
Registration by an organisation will only be required once, regardless of the number of applications submitted. Once an organisation has successfully registered under the Lowlands and Uplands Scotland Programme they are automatically registered to apply under the Highlands and Islands Programme and vice versa.
As part of the Registration process particular documents must also be submitted with the form. These include:
- Memorandum and Articles of Association
- A list of Board Members
- A copy of the organisation's Business Plan, or equivalent
- Details of the organisational Management Structure
- A copy of the most recent annual accounts plus previous two years
However, not all organisations are required to provide legal and financial information.

Please note the following:
- Organisations should register only once on €UROSYS, for any round in the Lowlands and Uplands Programme or Highlands and Islands Programme.
- Organisations that have previously submitted a manual registration form to ESEP or HIPP under the First Round are still required to register onto the €UROSYS system. There is no requirement to resubmit any previously submitted registration documentation or a printed version of the €UROSYS generated Registration Form.
- Organisations that have not previously submitted any registration documents manually are required to submit a signed copy of the €UROSYS generated Registration Form and any requested documentation - these should be forwarded to the ESEP Glasgow office
- Applicants must have registered and been approved as an eligible organisation before a Stage 1 Application can be accessed, completed and submitted.
