Singapore Company Check (Unique Entity Number)

Check any Singapore legal entity by its Unique Entity Number (UEN) 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 Singapore 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
Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA): Information on Corporate Entities (data.gov.sg) (SG)	Singapore Open Data Licence v1.0	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 Singapore 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.

Identifiers

Country	Identifier	Format	Example
Singapore (SG)	Unique Entity Number (UEN)	9 or 10 characters: 8 digits + letter, 9 digits + letter (companies), or T/S/R + 2 digits + 2 letters + 4 digits + letter	199201624D

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.
