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 UEN (Unique Entity Number), Company name, Legal form. 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.
