Dutch term or phrase: uitreksel uit de handelsvennootschappen
I know it's extract from the... but it seems a bit odd having the sentence 'extract from the trading companies'. Should it be trading companies register?

Explanation:
"uittreksel uit het handelsregister" or possibly "uit het register van handelsvennootschappen". I suggest you contact your client to make sure.

I've given the points to Jarry for confirming what I thought about there being something missing. On a point of interest - this client always uses extract for uitreksel, an extract being an 'afschrift van origineel' according to Van den End.
