Know which register holds the record
In Denmark, company records sit on CVR. Trade directories and aggregator sites are copies — the register is the source of truth.

Search by name or registration number
A registration number returns exactly one entity. A name may return several, especially for groups using the same brand across entities.

Read the register entry, not the marketing page
The register entry shows CVR number (8-digit), P-number (production unit). That is what a bank, auditor or counterparty will check.

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.
