How this service works
Return the current legal status of a UK company from the Companies House register — active, dissolved, liquidation, administration, receivership, voluntary-arrangement and others — with status detail, cessation date, a derived is_active (true for the live-on-the-register statuses active, open and registered) and a derived is_striking_off for an active company with a proposal to strike off. One call, one authoritative register answer. Use when: Is this UK company still active?
Output
Returns the company's current legal status string (e.g. active, dissolved, liquidation, administration, receivership, voluntary-arrangement), a status detail field, a cessation date (if applicable), a boolean is_active (true for active/open/registered statuses) and a boolean is_striking_off (true if active but with a strike-off proposal). All data is sourced authoritatively from the UK Companies House register.
Example use cases
Pre-contract supplier verification
“Before we sign this contract, can you verify that our UK supplier with company number SC123456 is still active and not in administration or being struck off?”
Investment due diligence check
“I'm considering investing in a UK firm with Companies House number NI000001 — can you pull their current legal status and flag if they're dissolved, in liquidation, or have a strike-off proposal?”
Automated KYB onboarding workflow
“As part of onboarding this new UK business client, look up company registration number 07641236 and confirm their current Companies House status — I need to know if they're genuinely active.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.eckari.com/v1/companies/uk/:company_number/status?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a single, authoritative answer about a UK company's legal status from the Companies House register with minimal latency and cost. It is purpose-built for agent workflows that need a yes/no liveness check or insolvency flag rather than the full company profile. Prefer it over web scraping or third-party aggregators when regulatory accuracy and freshness matter, and when you only need status (not full filings, accounts, or officer data).
Side effects
- Invalid company number format (non-alphanumeric, >8 chars, internal spaces) returns INVALID_INPUT before any charge
- Company number not found on register returns a not-found error
- Companies House upstream unavailability may cause timeout or 5xx response
- Whitespace-only company number rejected without payment
- Transient network errors may require retry
