    2. 2

      Check basic-search access

      Determine whether the required entity search is public, requires an account or carries a search fee. Do not confuse a free search-results list with a full company extract.

    3. 3

      Check the fields you need

      Find out whether officers, addresses and historical filings are included in the public result or require a separate document.

    4. 4

      Check document and API charges

      Review the official terms for extracts, certified copies, filings and data services. A free web lookup does not imply a free API or certification.
