How does the Companies House integration work?

Our end-to-end onboarding solution, Verify, integrates with several industry-leading data sources, including Companies House.

Companies House is the central registrar for all incorporated companies in the UK, and maintains a public database of company information.

When your customer is a UK company, you can use their company number to pull in information about their business and identify directors and people with significant control (PSCs).

Information not found on Companies House (such as dates of birth, emails and personal addresses of directors and PSCs) will still need to be added as part of the onboarding process.

For a full list of data that our Companies House integration can populate, take a look at our Companies House API.
