Search the UK Companies House register by company name or keyword and return matching companies with company number, status, type, incorporation date and address snippet. Use this first when you only have a name, then call the per-company capabilities with the returned company_number. Results keep the register's own ordering, echoed as match_rank — it is a position, not a relevance score. Covers England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland; paged. Use when: Look up a UK company by name.

More from Eckari & similar services
Eckari · UK Directors
api-staging.eckari.com
Return the officers registered against a UK company on the Companies House register — directors, secretaries, LLP members and corporate officers — with role, appointment and resignation dates, nationality, country of residence, occupation, month/year of birth and public correspondence address. Active officers by default; include_resigned adds history. Paging is explicit: has_more and next_offset say whether more matching officers remain. Use when: Who are the directors of this UK company?
Eckari · FX Reference Rate
api-staging.eckari.com
European Central Bank euro foreign exchange reference rate for a pair - the latest published fix or any date in the last 90 days. The ECB publishes EUR/XXX only, so inverse and cross rates are computed by Eckari from the same fix and named in rate_derivation. Reference rates, one per TARGET working day around 16:00 CET, not tradable market rates. Source and reuse conditions travel in meta.attribution. Use when: What is the ECB reference rate for EUR to USD?
Eckari · UK Status
api-staging.eckari.com
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?
