Vendor change process 

Every Recipient has the right to change the supplier. The supplier change does not cause any interruption in gas delivery, and the Recipient does not have to pay any fees to either the operator or vendor in order to carry out the process. The vendor change procedure is initiated by the Recipient by selecting a new vendor and concluding a comprehensive agreement for gas fuel deliveries with it.

We help our Clients with all formalities, and if you grant us with powers of attorney to conduct the vendor change process, we will be able to deal with all the formalities related to it for you. The whole process takes up to about 30 days.
