Call for companies to submit voluntary sustainability reports

The Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport informs micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that they can submit their voluntary sustainability report to the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG), thereby contributing to the further development of voluntary sustainability reporting in the European Union.

Under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), SMEs are not required to provide sustainability reports; however, we encourage companies to prepare voluntary sustainability reports as they encounter sustainability reporting requirements indirectly through supply chains, partners, banks, and investors.

SMEs that have already prepared a voluntary sustainability report for the 2024 or 2025 financial years now have the opportunity to actively contribute to its development and wider adoption across the EU.

By sharing their voluntary sustainability report, SMEs will help identify emerging reporting practices, highlight best practices, and support other SMEs at the beginning of their sustainability journey. The collected insights will be included in the Voluntary sustainability reporting standard for small and medium-sized undertakings Ecosystem (VSME Ecosystem 2026), and key findings will be published in the autumn of 2026.

Kratki vprašalnik (v angleščini) v okviru katerega MSP-ji naložijo svoje prostovoljno poročilo o trajnostnosti je dostopen na spletni strani EFRAG.

Potential participating companies should carefully read the available documentation and preparation instructions provided in the questionnaire before submitting their voluntary sustainability report.

By submitting a report, companies agree that EFRAG may use the data exclusively for aggregated and anonymized analyses. Individual company data will not be publicly disclosed. In the event that EFRAG wishes to present a specific example of best practice, it will obtain the company’s explicit consent beforehand.
