Company Register 15% open

Puerto Rico


What data is expected?

List of registered (limited liability) companies. The submissions in this data category do not need to include detailed financial data such as balance sheet, etc. Open data from company registers may be used for many ends: e.g. enabling customers and businesses to see with whom they deal, or to see where a company has registered offices. This definition draws on the work of OpenCorporates.

  • Name of company
  • Company address
  • Unique identifier of the company
  • Register available for entire country

How open is the data?

A notification states that you can obtain bulk data by emailing support@estado.pr.gov..

Results include Registry number, Corporation Name, Class, Profit, Status, and once an entity's name is selected, Street and Mailing Address are also given.
