How to search
Use company search with jurisdictionCode: "ag". Pass a name as companyName or a registration number as companyNumber. companyNumber is read as registrationNumber.
Fields
An advancedQuery for Antigua and Barbuda accepts these fields:
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
name | Name fragment; at most 50 upstream matches. |
registrationNumber | Published IPCO number, e.g. C84/09. |
Examples
{ "jurisdictionCode": "ag", "advancedQuery": { "name": "Bank" }}Other accepted field combinations: registrationNumber.
Search notes
- Broad queries return at most 50 matches with no pagination or total count. Narrow the name or use the published registration number; an empty result is distinct from a source outage.
Company identifiers
A registration number sent as companyNumber uses this jurisdiction’s number search; you do not name the scheme. The identifiers below can appear in a company’s identifiers.
| Identifier | Type | Format |
|---|---|---|
| IPCO Entity ID Source record UUID allocated by Antigua and Barbuda IPCO, distinct from the published registration number. | ag_entity_id | ^[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}$ |
| IPCO Registration Number Published IPCO company (C), external company (EC), or business-name (B) number. Preserve internal spaces and slash/year suffix, e.g. C 215 or C84/09. | ag_registration_number | ^(?:EC|[BC]) *[0-9]+(?: *[A-Z]|/[0-9]+)?$ |
Identifier notes
- Search by the published IPCO registration number, preserving internal spaces and slash/year suffixes (C 215, C84/09). The source UUID identifies the returned record; searching the UUID itself returns no matches. Use the returned kausateId for reports and prefill.

Gotchas
| Topic | Details |
|---|---|
| Periodically updated basic records | IPCO describes this public database as periodically updated, without a published interval. A fresh API call does not certify the statutory record. The downloadable source PDF is a Kausate transcript of the public response. |
| Filed records require separate access | The free response contains no directors, shareholders, UBO or accounts. Paid statutory searches and filed copies are currently unavailable through Kausate. FSRC's international business company register is a separate source. |
| Sparse fields remain absent | Some records have no incorporation date or address. Principal-office addresses are returned as published text; structured components and an applicable international legal-form code may be absent. |
