• the application is filed by a person without appropriate authorization, or
• the documents provided do not fulfill the requirements.

The documents shall be presented in original or in copies with presentation of the originals for checking. Also the documents can be offered for considering on an electronic device.
The license applicant will receive a written notice if the application for a license is rejected.
