# Check a Company's Status by State Registration Number

**Use case:** 

Enter a company's state registration number and get the official record back from the state's own registry: registered name, status (active, inactive, dissolved and so on), entity type, formation date and business address. Works for New York, Texas, Florida, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Connecticut and Oregon IDs. Pay per record found; a number that isn't found costs nothing.

## Input

```json
{
  "names": [
    "Tesla, Inc."
  ],
  "matchMode": "exact",
  "entityIds": [
    "TX:19121977292",

    "CT",
    "OR",
    "PA",
    "TX"
  ],
  "nyIncludeInactive": false,
  "maxMatchesPerName": 1,
  "maxRecords": 5
}
```

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/nexgensignal/us-business-entity-status-check.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
