Jersey Company Data – Search and Lite Profile Updates

Overview

As part of Kyckr's migration from the EBR (European Business Registry Network) to a direct registry connection with the JFSC Companies Registry (ISO code JE), we've updated Search and Lite Profile responses for Jersey. The Automated Search and Lite Profile products will remain available and have been significantly improved with richer data and broader company type coverage.

The Enhanced Profile product will be temporarily discontinued while an alternative solution is built. Customers currently using the Enhanced Profile should use the Lite Profile in the interim. Alternatively, a PDF document "Company Profile" is available from the filing list and contains company information including representatives, capital, and shareholders.

There is no change to the Filing list.

Search results

Search responses for Jersey have been significantly improved with richer data and expanded company type coverage following the direct registry connection.

Company type coverage

Previously, search results were limited to the Companies entity type only. After migration, search results will include all company types registered at the Jersey Register.

Important: Company numbers are not unique across different entity types in the Jersey Register. The same company number may be used for both a business name and a company name. To ensure subsequent API calls return the correct data, the identifier field has been updated:

Field Change
codeField Now returns companynumber_companyname (e.g., "89736_520 HOTELS LIMITED") instead of the company number alone

Response structure changes

The search response structure has been updated with additional fields providing richer company data.

Key changes

The following fields are new or updated in search responses after migration:

Field Change
codeField Now encodes companynumber_companyname to handle non-unique company numbers across entity types
legalFormField Now populated with the company's legal form (e.g., "Registered Company Private")
legalStatusField Now populated with the company's current status (e.g., "Inactive (Dissolved)", "Active")
registrationDateField Now populated with the company's registration date (e.g., "15-03-2005")

The following fields have been removed from search responses:

  • aliasesField (previously returned with null values)
  • registrationAuthorityCodeField (previously "JEJFSC", now empty)
  • lineField array and typeField within addressesField have been removed

Enhanced profile

The Enhanced Profile product for Jersey will be temporarily discontinued following the EBR migration while an alternative solution is developed. Customers currently using the Enhanced Profile should use the Lite Profile in the interim.

A PDF document "Company Profile" is available from the filing list as an alternative and contains full company information including:

  • Company representatives and directors
  • Share capital information
  • Shareholder data
