The Point: Of approximately 29,500 companies subject to NIS2 requirements, only about 18,500 have completed the required registration by early July.
Just before the 31 July deadline for NIS2 implementation, only 18,500 of approximately 29,500 affected companies in Germany have registered. This represents a compliance rate of just under 63 percent.
Based on available data on NIS2 registration, over 11,000 companies remain unregistered by the deadline on 31 July 2024. Registration with the competent authority is a fundamental requirement of the NIS2 Directive for implementing minimum standards in information security.
For compliance officers, this rate presents a significant risk: companies that fail to register by the deadline are in violation of regulatory requirements. Potential consequences include fines, regulatory inspections, and reputational damage. Registration is not merely a formal obligation, but also the entry point for compliance with the substantive security requirements of the Directive.
For companies not yet registered, a very short deadline remains. Immediate contact with the competent authority responsible for the company’s location is recommended to clarify any pending processes and to prioritise any outstanding registrations.
