Select a market and add a legal name or registration number.

Official Search Route

Use the official portal, then compare the record with the documents supplied by the company.

Your registry, prepared search term, coverage, and access guidance will appear here.

How to Check a Company Record

1. Use the legal identity

Copy the legal name and registration number from an invoice, contract, certificate, tax document, or bank record.

2. Search the official register

Open the selected government or statutory registry and choose the matching legal entity rather than a similar trading name.

3. Compare critical details

Review status, number, address, jurisdiction, officers, and filing dates against the counterparty’s supplied documents.

What an Official Record Can and Cannot Confirm

It can establish a record trail

A matching official entry can provide a legal name, identifier, status, address, filing history, or officers depending on the jurisdiction.

It does not establish trade reliability

Registration does not prove creditworthiness, product quality, bank-account ownership, authority to sign, or willingness to perform a contract.

Coverage differs by market

Federal, state, provincial, securities, tax, and commercial registers cover different entity types. Use the access note before relying on a result.

The tool does not retrieve registry records. It prepares a search and opens an official external source only when you select the link.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a registry result prove that a company is safe to trade with?

No. A registry can help confirm that a legal entity or filing record exists and may show status, address, officers, or filings. It does not prove creditworthiness, product quality, authority to sign a deal, or future performance.

Why do some links open a portal instead of completed search results?

Many official registers do not support stable public search URLs. Some require a CAPTCHA, session, login, fee, local-language name, or registration number, so the tool prepares the search details and opens the correct official starting point.

Which company name should I search?

Use the full legal name shown on the company’s invoice, contract, registration certificate, tax document, or bank details. A brand or trading name may not match the registered entity name.

What should I compare after finding a record?

Compare the legal name, registration number, current status, registered address, jurisdiction, officers where available, and filing dates against the documents and payment details supplied by the counterparty.

Does TradeGoAI receive my company search details?

No. The company name, registration number, prepared search record, copied text, and downloaded file are handled locally in your browser. The official registry receives the search only after you choose to open its website.
