Cyprus Company Check (registration number) — KYB MCP

Cyprus Company Check (registration number)

Check any Cyprus legal entity by its registration number (DRCOR) in one call and get a clean English JSON answer with red flags, source attribution and a date on every field. Built for AI agents (MCP) and for KYB / AML onboarding, counterparty and supplier due diligence, vendor risk and compliance checks.

• One number → one answer from official open registers plus GLEIF Global LEI Index: Level 1 (LEI-CDF), Level 2 (RR-CDF), Reporting Exceptions and Official sanctions lists: US OFAC (SDN and Consolidated non-SDN), EU consolidated financial sanctions (FSF), UK Sanctions List (FCDO) — legal entities only.
• One schema for every country: the same fields and flags whether you check one Cyprus company or a thousand — your agent parses one format.
• Agent-ready: an MCP server (Streamable HTTP, /mcp) with check_company, check_companies and list_sources, a plain GET /check?country=&id= endpoint, and classic batch runs (list of numbers → dataset).
• Change history: registers publish only the current state; we keep our own snapshots, so every answer shows what was added or removed since history_since (e.g. a status change or a new sanctions listing).
• Pay per check (one charge per company answered; the price is on the Pricing tab), no subscription. Malformed numbers, sole traders and individuals are not charged. In Standby (MCP / HTTP) mode Apify also bills the small platform usage of the server run, as for every Standby Actor. Set a maximum cost per run in Apify to cap spending: when it is reached, the Actor returns an error instead of data.

What we check

Source	Licence	Publisher updates
Department of Registrar of Companies and Intellectual Property (Cyprus): register of companies, overseas companies, partnerships and business names — live and struck off (monthly snapshot) (CY)	CC BY 4.0. Dataset page: "License: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International	monthly
GLEIF Global LEI Index: Level 1 (LEI-CDF), Level 2 (RR-CDF), Reporting Exceptions	CC0 1.0	daily
Official sanctions lists: US OFAC (SDN and Consolidated non-SDN), EU consolidated financial sanctions (FSF), UK Sanctions List (FCDO) — legal entities only	Several, see Data licences	daily

Data refreshed at least weekly (from the latest published files: the Cyprus register is published monthly, so its data can be up to a month old); every field carries its source date (provenance), and every answer lists each source with the date it was loaded (sources[].loaded_at; list_sources is free).

flags — true is a red flag: not_found (the number is not in the register dump), not_active, insolvency, liquidation, sanctions (match by registration number or LEI), sanctions_name_match (same name, same country: verify manually). false means there is no record in the loaded snapshot — it is not a clean bill of health. null means unknown. Call list_sources (free) for load times.

Cyprus: The DRCOR open dataset covers all companies, overseas companies, partnerships and business names on the Cyprus register since 1923, live and struck off (monthly snapshot). SE register numbers are not included (SEs converted from a Cyprus plc appear under their HE number); business names are not legal entities and are not supported. A valid registration number without a record therefore returns not_found: null (unknown, not fictitious) and is not charged.

Identifiers

Country	Identifier	Format	Example
Cyprus (CY)	registration number (DRCOR)	prefix + up to 6 digits: HE (company), AE (overseas company), P / Σ (partnership), BN (old partnership); Greek or Latin letters, e.g. HE 123456 or ΗΕ123456	HE165

Spaces, dashes and a country prefix are accepted. Legal entities only: sole traders and other natural persons are not supported, not stored and not charged. No data about people (officers, owners, contacts) is ever returned; addresses are city level only.
