FAQs

How do I know what information is available at different registries?

When integrating with Kyckr, a matrix is provided detailing which fields in the Lite and Enhanced profiles are populated for each jurisdiction. High-level information can also be found using the Coverage Portal.

I know the company exists but I cant find it when using Search?

If the company exists at the registry but does not appear in search, altering search terms may help. Simplify by removing suffixes (such as LTD, GmbH, Corp, etc) and double check the correct jurisdiction is being searched.

Does Kyckr format any data in responses?

Kyckr has been working on normalising key fields in our responses, to create a standard lexicon for certain important pieces of data. This will always be provided alongside the original data from source. So far we have rolled out a Normalised Legal Status, there are three statuses for Normalised Legal Status.

· ACTIVE
· INACTIVE
· DISTRESSED

Kyckr will be introducing some additional fields to provide normalised data for key fields in the future.

I don't know the country I need to search in, is there a global search?

Yes, Kyckr has an endpoint that searches across a cached dataset of companies. Whilst this dataset is not updated in real-time, this type of search can help to find the jurisdiction for an entity.

A real-time search on the specific jurisdiction can then be performed using Kyckr's search API.

A registry that I need isn't available in Test, what can I do?

With some registries, it is not possible for us to offer a Test service that matches the production capability of that registry.
