Browse Registration authorities

This reference data lists official registration authorities that manage national or regional business identifiers, such as company registration numbers, trade registry codes, or other legal entity identifiers. Each authority entry includes links to its managed identifier types, associated countries, regions, and jurisdictional coverage. The dataset enables consistent identification, mapping, and validation of registration sources across different systems and countries. It supports use cases such as entity resolution, data quality monitoring, and cross-referencing of business partner identifiers in compliance and master data management processes.
