Both co-legislators are working toward the European Council's end-2026 political agreement target.
The next critical milestone is the June 26 presentation of Parliament's draft report, followed by the July 17 amendment deadline – these will define Parliament's negotiating position heading into the second half of 2026.

The Council Working Party on Company Law meets on June 11, 2026 to continue discussion on the formation of an EU Inc company and the associated processes and digital systems, and to discuss internal organisation and governance of the EU Inc company, according to the Council's meeting notice (CM 3040/26).
Council of the European Union→[June 2, 2026]
The Council Working Party on Company Law met to continue technical examination of the EU Inc proposal. This session follows the May 28 ministerial debate and continues work under the Cyprus Presidency before Ireland assumes the rotating presidency in July. The next session is scheduled for June 17.
Council of the European Union→[May 30, 2026]
The European Parliament's Legal Affairs Committee (JURI) appointed René Repasi (S&D, Germany) as rapporteur for the EU Inc proposal on April 23, 2026. The committee referral was formally announced in plenary on May 18, 2026. Rapporteur Repasi will lead Parliament's examination of the proposal and draft the committee's report.
European Parliament→EU Inc (also called the 28th regime or S.EU) is a new pan-European company form proposed by the European Commission on March 18, 2026. It creates a single legal framework that lets entrepreneurs register one company and operate across all 27 EU member states – without needing separate entities in each country.
Today, a startup expanding from Sweden to Germany needs a new legal entity, a local notary, and months of paperwork. EU Inc is supposed to cut that down to one optional EU framework, one ruleset, and a much simpler cross-border setup. It is the EU's clearest answer yet to the Delaware pull on European founders.
