The issue

A polished website or business card does not prove authority to bind a company. A group brand may differ from the actual contracting entity.

Official and primary sources

General information, not advice on an individual case. Sources consulted on 22 October 2026: check updates before acting. The overall portal review is ongoing. This note does not certify a complete check of every page.
