Company Registry Report | Fill Easy Docs

Request

post

This endpoint may retrieve the company JSON and document via two methods:

Automated retrieval using Company ID for supported countries

If the country supplied in countryCode is in the AutomatedCountry Model, and the supplied companyId is valid, the system will automatically fetch the document.

In order to ensure a valid companyId, please validate using /cra/{countryCode}/search/companies.

In this case, /cra/poll will resolve in around 5 minutes.

The /cra/{countryCode}/search/companies endpoint will not return a companyId for certain countries (empty string). In that case please refer to the information in the section below.

Manual request for unsupported countries or missing Company ID

In case of unsupported countries or missing companyId, Fill Easy will manually process the request. Retrieving this information may take longer (up to several days).

In any case, the endpoint returns a JWT token that should be used with the /cra/poll endpoint to retrieve the document when ready.

Poll Report

post

Poll this endpoint to check the status of a company registry report request. Keep polling until you receive a successful response with the message "CRA ready" and a presigned URL to download the document.

If the report is not ready yet, you will receive a 202 status code with the message "Report is pending".

Once the report is ready, the endpoint will bill the service and return a presigned URL valid for 1 hour to download the PDF document.

Search Companies by Name

post

This endpoint performs a search for companies in the respective country's Companies Registry by company name. It supports both English and Chinese company names and returns a list of matching companies.

Certain countries are unable to return a companyId - in those cases the idType in the response will be "Unavailable" and companyId will be an empty string.

The search will automatically detect if the input is in Chinese characters and adjust the search parameters accordingly.

The type of search is dependent on the country: Substring search: KY Tokenized search (e.g. searching "PLE" will not result in "APPLE"): AU, SG Left partial search: HK,
