    How do I search the company register in Argentina?

    Start with ARCA / IGJ (https://www.arca.gob.ar/) for Argentina company records. Use the supported legal-name or identifier search and inspect available fields, such as CUIT (tax ID), Razón social, Legal form, Fiscal address. Official searches, documents and APIs have separate access rules; LemReveal's free lookup does not remove those conditions.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Know which register holds the record

      In Argentina, company records sit on ARCA / IGJ. Trade directories and aggregator sites are copies — the register is the source of truth.

      https://www.arca.gob.ar/
    2. 2

      Search by name or registration number

      Use the exact identifier with its issuing register or jurisdiction. Name searches can return several candidates; a number is not a guarantee that the source is available or covers the record.

    3. 3

      Read the register entry, not the marketing page

      The register entry shows CUIT (tax ID), Razón social, Legal form, Fiscal address. That is what a bank, auditor or counterparty will check.

    4. 4

      Keep a dated copy

      Register entries change. Save the record with the date you retrieved it, or set up monitoring so you are told when the entry changes.

    Argentina: choosing and checking the right record

    Choose the correct source
    Use ARCA, formerly AFIP, for the exact CUIT tax-registration check. For company registration, select IGJ for CABA or the relevant provincial register. A national tax result and a local commercial-register file answer different questions.
    Confirm the entity
    Keep the 11-digit CUIT together with the legal name and incorporation jurisdiction. Compare the entity on the contract rather than a trading label, and distinguish a fiscal address from a registered office where both are supplied.

    Check current access and document options on the official ARCA / IGJ site. For search limitations and missing-result guidance, see the Argentina registry guide.
