ISIN Registration
Obtain an International Securities Identification Number for securities to be issued or listed, with end-to-end depository coordination.
Overview
What this service covers
An ISIN is the unique identifier assigned to a security so it can be held and transferred in dematerialised form. Obtaining one requires coordination with a depository, a registrar and, depending on the instrument, the issuing entity's own corporate approvals and documentation.
Who needs it
- Entities issuing debt securities or notes
- Issuers preparing for a listing on an exchange
- Funds and structures creating dematerialised units
- Corporates carrying out corporate actions on existing securities
Why it matters
- Securities cannot be held or settled in demat form without an ISIN
- Depository and registrar requirements are documentation-heavy and sequence-sensitive
- Errors in board approvals or instrument details cause avoidable rejections and delays

FAQ
Common questions
Does every security need a separate ISIN?
Each distinct instrument with its own terms is generally identified separately. Your specialist confirms this for your structure.
Can Gateway coordinate with our existing registrar?
Yes. Gateway works with your appointed registrar and depository participants, or helps you appoint one.
What usually delays an ISIN application?
Incomplete corporate approvals, mismatched instrument details and pending KYC records are the most common causes.
