    How do I find the right registered entity in Latvia?

    A registry entity search in Latvia identifies which specific legal entity you are dealing with when a name is shared across several. Uzņēmumu reģistrs (UR) distinguishes them by registration number, entity type (SIA (Sabiedrība ar ierobežotu atbildību), AS (Akciju sabiedrība), IK (Individuālais komersants)) and registered address.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Search the name and expect several hits

      Groups commonly register holding, trading and dormant entities under near-identical names. The first result is not necessarily the one you are dealing with.

    2. 2

      Disambiguate by registration number

      The registration number is unique. If a counterparty cannot give you theirs, that is itself informative.

    3. 3

      Compare entity type and address

      Where the number is unavailable, entity type (SIA (Sabiedrība ar ierobežotu atbildību), AS (Akciju sabiedrība), IK (Individuālais komersants)) and registered address usually separate the candidates.

    4. 4

      Record which entity you chose

      Contracts are with an entity, not a brand. Note the registration number you verified so later checks look at the same record.

    Frequently asked questions

    Why do several Latvia entities share the same name?

    Groups register separate legal entities — holding, operating, dormant — under closely related names. Uzņēmumu reģistrs (UR) treats each as a distinct entity with its own registration number.

    How do I tell which entity I am contracting with?

    By registration number. Ask the counterparty for it, then confirm that exact number on Uzņēmumu reģistrs (UR). Name alone is not sufficient.

    Is entity search on Uzņēmumu reģistrs (UR) free?

    Yes — search and the public entity record are free and need no account.

    Does the biggest entity in the results matter most?

    No. What matters is the entity named on your contract or invoice. A dormant shell and a trading company in the same group look similar in a name search and carry very different risk.

    What is a SIA?

    SIA (Sabiedrība ar ierobežotu atbildību) is Latvia's limited liability company. Minimum share capital is €2,800. SIA is the most popular business form in Latvia for both domestic and foreign entrepreneurs.
