FAQ

Is the data official?

Yes. It comes straight from the UK Companies House public register at api.company-information.service.gov.uk - the canonical UK corporate filing source.

Can I search by a person instead of a company?

Yes. You can query by officer surname, by company name, or by company number.

Why is the date of birth partial?

Companies House has suppressed the day component on the public register since 2018; you get month and year, with residential addresses permanently withheld.
