This provider offers thorough business verification services across Australian and New Zealand government registers, covering over 5.5 million entities. It's designed for compliance teams, legal professionals, and organizations conducting due diligence on business partners or clients.
Core Capabilities
Entity Verification: Validate businesses using official identifiers (ABN, ACN, NZBN) against authoritative government sources. Returns current registration status, compliance standing, and key business details.
Business Search: Find entities by name across Australian and New Zealand registers with fuzzy matching capabilities to handle variations in business names and trading styles.
Director & Shareholder Intelligence: Discover personal networks by tracking directorships and shareholdings for named individuals through the NZ Companies Office Entity Role register.
PPSR Network Analysis: Estimate Personal Property Securities Register footprint for New Zealand entities, revealing potential security interests and financial relationships.
Audit Trail Management: Retrieve historical verification records and maintain compliance documentation with immutable audit UIDs for regulatory reporting.
Domain Model
Entities are identified by jurisdiction-specific numbers: Australian Business Numbers (ABN, 11 digits), Australian Company Numbers (ACN, 9 digits), or New Zealand Business Numbers (NZBN, 13 digits). Each verification generates an audit record with permanent UID for compliance tracking.
Key Considerations
Results reflect real-time government register data but processing delays may occur during high-volume periods. PPSR analysis uses indexed network evidence, not live registry queries. Some historical records may have limited availability depending on government data retention policies.
