How do I get an official company extract in Latvia?
An official Latvia company extract is issued by Uzņēmumu reģistrs (UR) at https://www.ur.gov.lv. Free public search covers most verification needs; a paid certified company extract is normally only required for banking, tenders, court filings or notarised transactions.
