Statuses and legal forms

Every result carries the register's own status in registration_info.status and an AiPrise status in registration_info.normalised_status. The normalised status is one of Active, Suspended, Dormant, Dissolved / Struck Off, In Liquidation / Insolvency or Unknown.

Register status	Normalised status
No status in the register data	Unknown

Quirks and gotchas

Country-specific behaviour to know before you integrate.

Quirk	Details
No company status	The register data has no company status, so `normalised_status` is `Unknown`. Confirm the status from a recent register certificate if you need it.
No officers or owners from the register	The register data has no directors, shareholders or UBOs. Collect them in your onboarding flow and verify each person with KYC.
Slower than most countries	The register search takes about 25 seconds, and 9 in 10 finish within 54 seconds. Set timeouts accordingly, or use callbacks.

Limits

The company status, legal form and registration date are not returned.
Directors, shareholders and UBOs are not returned for this country.
