Is this firm authorised in the EU, for what, since when, or on a regulator warning list? Checks banks, payment and e-money firms, investment firms, MiCA crypto providers and warning lists by name, LEI, registration number or domain. ALLOW / REVIEW / BLOCK verdict for KYB and AI payment agents.
Legal or trading name, e.g. 'Mollie B.V.'. Legal forms (B.V., GmbH, Ltd...) and accents are normalised.
20-character Legal Entity Identifier. Strongest match key; the legal name is also looked up at GLEIF (CC0) unless resolve_lei is off.
The regulator's or business register's number as published in the register (e.g. DNB 'F0038', ECB RIAD code, SIREN for AMF PSAN).
ISO 3166 alpha-2 (NL, DE, FR...). Lowers name-match confidence for firms from other countries (passported firms excepted).
The domain you are dealing with (https://example.com, example.com or someone@example.com). Matched against warning lists and register websites; look-alike domains are flagged.
What the firm says it is, e.g. 'payment institution NL', 'e-money', 'bank', 'MiCA CASP', 'investment firm DE'. Types we do not cover (insurance, consumer credit...) return not_covered.
YYYY-MM-DD. Status on that date, from the registers' own authorisation/withdrawal dates and our recorded history. Default: today.
A list of {name, lei, reg_number, country, domain, claimed_licence, as_of}. Max 500. Top-level as_of applies to all items that do not set one.
The bundled data is rebuilt every day at about 11:15 Amsterdam time from our daily copies of each register. 'auto' (default) also fetches any source older than max_age_hours live from the official file at run start (adds 5-60 s when needed); 'never' uses the bundled data only; 'always' fetches every source live.
With refresh 'auto': sources whose data_as_of is older than this many hours are fetched live (default 48).
