Registration to a local Data Protection Authority

"Where Article 3(2) applies, the controller or the processor shall designate in writing a representative in the Union". I would like to know if it is necessary to have a document in place between the Extra European Company and the European one and also if this has to be communicated to someone, or register it somewhere.

The second question is how to register as a data controller.

Answers:

1. This is subject to local data protection laws. The EU GDPR only requests for the appointing of a representative but does not describe how this would work from an administrative perspective. For sure you would need to have a written document in place to prove that you have appointed a representative in the EU.

2. Registration to a local Data Protection Authority is also subject to local law, just to give you an example the ICO requires controllers to register (https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/data-protection-fee/) while other authori ties such as the one in Poland don`t.
