How do I search the business registry in Ukraine?
The Ukraine business registry is operated by EDR (Unified State Register). It covers ТОВ (Товариство з обмеженою відповідальністю). Search by business name to find the registered entity behind a trading name — free, no signup.
Step-by-step
- 1
Search the trading name you were given
Start with the name on the invoice, website or contract. It is often a trading name rather than the registered legal name.
- 2
Identify the legal entity behind it
EDR (Unified State Register) records the legal entity. Matching a trading name to its registered entity is the whole point of a registry search — the two are frequently different.
- 3
Check the entity type
Ukraine recognises ТОВ (Товариство з обмеженою відповідальністю). Entity type determines liability and who is legally responsible, so it matters before you contract.
- 4
Note what the registry does not cover
Sole traders and unregistered activity may not appear at all. An absent record is not automatically proof of fraud — it can simply mean the business is not required to register.
