    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 Kennitala, Company name, Legal form, 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.
