Frequently Asked Questions

What Companies House data is available through the API?

We provide access to company profiles, director and officer information, persons with significant control (PSCs), filing history, accounts, confirmation statements, charges, mortgages, and company status data. All sourced directly from the UK Companies House.

How current is the data?

Our data is refreshed daily from Companies House. The freshness depends on when Companies House themselves process filings, typically within 1-3 business days of submission.

Can I search by company name or only by company number?

You can search using either the UK company registration number (8-digit) or the company name. We also support partial name matching to help you find companies when exact names are uncertain.

What response time can I expect?

Most requests return in under 500ms. Response times vary depending on the complexity of the company record (e.g., number of officers, historical filings). Our infrastructure is designed for high-volume, low-latency requests.

Is this suitable for regulatory compliance checks?

Yes. Company Information is designed for KYB (Know Your Business), regulatory compliance, fraud prevention, and due diligence. Data comes directly from official Companies House records and is suitable for high-risk lending and compliance workflows.
