The Bottom Line: 18,414 of an estimated 30,000 affected companies have registered for NIS2, representing a compliance rate of approximately 61 percent.
Approximately 61 percent of covered companies have registered so far under the NIS2 Directive. With a registration rate of 18,414 notifications from an expected population of around 30,000 organizations, a heterogeneous picture of compliance implementation emerges.
According to the available data, a total of 18,414 companies have completed their NIS2 registration. The original expectation was around 30,000 organizations to be covered, bringing the current rate to approximately 61 percent.
For compliance officers, this means that a substantial portion of regulated companies has yet to complete the required registration or has not been fully reached. Registration is a fundamental prerequisite for compliance with the NIS2 Directive, as it forms the basis for all subsequent requirements—from risk assessments to incident management to the implementation of technical and organizational measures.
The existing gap of approximately 39 percent of unregistered organizations suggests either implementation delays, unclear boundaries in identifying covered companies, or possible compliance failures. This could result in regulatory consequences for these organizations if deadlines are not met or if the registration obligation has been overlooked.
