AFM deadlines and the filing cycle for the DORA Register of Information

The AFM sets the filing dates for the DORA Register of Information in news items and in its Q&A, not in one fixed table. This page lists the dates of the 2026 cycle, each with its AFM source. It says nothing about 2027, because the AFM has not announced a date. It covers the AFM only.

The 2026 cycle

Step	Date	Source
The AFM announces the request	4 November 2025	AFM news, 4 November 2025 (opens in a new tab)
First deadline, in that notice	22 March 2026	AFM news, 4 November 2025 (opens in a new tab)
The AFM publishes the one-week extension in a news item	12 March 2026	AFM news, 12 March 2026 (opens in a new tab)
First submission must be complete	31 March 2026	AFM news, 12 March 2026 (opens in a new tab); AFM Q&A (opens in a new tab)
Corrections of a submitted register welcome	until 30 April 2026	AFM news, 12 March 2026 (opens in a new tab); AFM Q&A (opens in a new tab)

The extension applied to the first version. The AFM wrote that a company that submits its first version before 31 March 2026 has until 30 April 2026 to submit an improved version (AFM news, 12 March 2026 (opens in a new tab)). The Q&A calls these later files corrections to improve data quality, also called resubmissions (AFM Q&A (opens in a new tab)).

2027: not announced

On 30 October 2026 we read the AFM's Register of Information page (opens in a new tab) (last modified 6 October 2026). It names no date for a 2027 request. We make no claim about a 2027 deadline, reference date or taxonomy version. Treat any 2027 date from another source as unconfirmed until the AFM publishes it.

The AFM announced the 2026 request on 4 November 2025 (AFM news, 4 November 2025 (opens in a new tab)). The 2027 timing may differ. Do not plan on this pattern.

How we recheck

• We read the AFM's Register of Information page and its news items every month, and again on 1 December 2026.
• We change a date on this page only when an AFM page states it, and we add the link and the check date in the same change.
• The reviewed date at the top of the page is the date of the last real check of these sources.

What you can do now

• Read filing with the AFM for the format, file name, upload and resubmission steps.
• Prepare your contract data now. For the 2026 cycle the AFM stated that the data point model had not changed from the year before (AFM Q&A (opens in a new tab)). We cannot say whether it changes for 2027.
• If your register is an Excel workbook, read From Excel to xBRL-CSV. The AFM accepts only xBRL-CSV.
• Questions about the request go to [email protected] (AFM Q&A (opens in a new tab)).
