Cross-border checks

Groups don't stop at the border. Neither do we.

Company groups rarely stop at one border. Our reports, and your own assistant with EUCompanyCheck connected, follow a company's owners and the people who run it from one official register to the next.

Cross-border shareholdings

Trace who owns a company through its parent companies, whichever country each one is registered in: shareholders and controllers from 10 registers, with every owner looked up in its own country's register.

Director checks

See who runs every company in a group: directors, board members and other officers, with their roles and dates where the register gives them, from 13 registers.

Company checks

Confirm that each company in the chain exists and is active, with its registration number, legal form, status and registered address, live from 21 official registers.

For AI assistants

Check companies yourself, live in your AI assistant.

EUCompanyCheck is also an MCP server: connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or your editor once and ask about any company in 23 official European registers, in plain language.

The Free plan covers Companies House with 100 requests a month. No card needed.

Why EUCompanyCheck

A European specialist, in depth.

European specialists

EUCompanyCheck does one thing: Europe's official company registers. We know each one's identifiers, legal forms and language, and how its records fit together, so your assistant asks the right register the right way and understands what comes back.

In depth

We cover 23 European countries rather than every country in the world, and go as deep as each register goes: every field its public service publishes, and the latest filed accounts and shareholder lists where the register keeps them as documents. Nothing is cut down to a few headline fields.

Live, straight from the register

Every answer comes from the official register that holds the company, such as Companies House, the Handelsregister or the National Court Register, at the moment you ask, in its own words and language, with the source named. New directors, accounts and status changes show up as soon as the register publishes them.

5 tools

Everything a register publishes about a company.

5 tools take your assistant from a company name to its owners, directors and accounts. Registers publish different things, and the tools cover all of it; the coverage table shows exactly which tool works in which country.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

What is in a company report?

The UK company in full: its register details, directors and their other UK directorships, shareholders and people with significant control, the shareholding structure up to the ultimate owners where possible, subsidiaries and associated companies, accounts, charges and insolvency history. It also includes multiple layers of shareholders and directors found in 23 European countries. Compare the reports.

How quickly do I get a report?

Within 24 hours of payment, or 2 days for the global check, by email to the address you give at checkout. You get an order confirmation straight away.

What does the litigation check add?

A search for court cases, judgments, insolvency and winding-up proceedings involving the company, its major associated companies, and its directors and major shareholders, in the UK and all major EU countries.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI assistants use outside tools. Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and many other apps support it. You add EUCompanyCheck once, and your assistant can then call its tools whenever a question needs company information.

Why 23 countries and not a hundred?

Because we specialise in Europe, and depth is what makes an answer useful. For each of these 23 countries EUCompanyCheck returns everything the official register's public service publishes: the register entry, the people who run and own the company and its accounts, wherever the register makes them available. Every answer also carries the register's original record in its own language, so nothing is lost on the way to your assistant.

Which assistants work with EUCompanyCheck?

Any app that supports remote MCP servers with sign-in, including claude.ai, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and Windsurf. You add the EUCompanyCheck address once and sign in with your EUCompanyCheck email when the app asks. The docs have step-by-step guides.

How are requests counted?

Each tool call your assistant makes is one request. Connecting and listing the tools are free. Calls refused because of your plan or invalid input, and calls a register fails to answer, are not counted. A search that finds nothing still counts, because the register was asked. Allowances reset on the first day of each month (UTC).

What happens when I reach my monthly limit?

Your assistant receives a clear message that the allowance is used up and when it resets, and nothing is charged. You can upgrade at any time and the new allowance applies straight away.

How accurate is the information?

It is exactly what the official register publishes at the moment of the call: EUCompanyCheck does not edit or estimate it. Registers can contain errors or delays of their own, so for legal decisions check the register's own website, which every answer names.

Can I download documents such as annual accounts?

Yes. Where a register keeps the accounts or the shareholder list as a filed document, the answer includes a download link to the latest one. Links work for 7 days.

Why are some tools not available in some countries?

We provide different information in each country. The coverage table shows what we provide where.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. Paid plans are monthly. Cancel on your account page and you keep your plan until the end of the period you have paid for. You can also switch between Standard and Pro there; upgrades are charged pro rata.

What do you store about me?

Your email address, your plan and billing records, and a log of the tool calls you make (which tool, which country, when) so you can see your usage. We do not see or store the questions you ask your assistant. See the privacy policy or write to EUCompanyCheck support.
