Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with registrar’s standards procedure when they are required to register a trade union organisation into the Registry of Associations. There is an ongoing discussion on trade union’s legal status among scholars, practitioners and even judges. Some claim they are associations, but they are opposed by trade union’s establishment and few registrars. If this happens those trade unions are denied the entry to the register, what has been meanwhile overruled by upper courts, or they are required to change their name deleting the term “association” thereof.
