The Council of the European Union issued a corrigendum on 24 June 2026 correcting an obvious error in the Czech language version of Directive (EU) 2022/2464 on corporate sustainability reporting (CSRD), which was published in the Official Journal on 16 December 2022. The correction adjusts the list of sustainability reporting information required from subsidiaries of third-country parent companies under Article 1, point 14 (new Article 40a(1), first subparagraph) in the Czech version only. The original text referenced information defined in Article 29a(2)(a), points (iii) to (vi), (b) to (e) and, where applicable, (g). The corrected text now references points (iii) to (v), (b) to (f) and, where applicable, (h). The corrigendum follows the procedure for obvious errors in one language version (procedure 2(b)). Member States have three days to submit observations to the Council's Directorate Quality of Legislation. The corrigendum has also been transmitted to the European Parliament. This technical correction does not alter the substance of the CSRD, which requires large companies and listed companies to disclose environmental, social, and governance (ESG) information. The error affected only the Czech version, and the correction ensures alignment with other language versions.
The impact is limited to Czech-language users of the directive, with no material effect on businesses or regulators. The Council's Legal Service handled the correction, and no further institutional follow-up is expected.
