How filing works in Montenegro

You work on the portal under your own login. In Montenegro, the client adds you as a named user on its account on CeJN: you prepare, upload and, on the client's written go-ahead, submit under your own login.

The client keeps its own login, the administrator role and every signature only it may give. You never use its credentials.
