# Singapore

Company data from the Singapore business register, through the Topograph API.

## Overview

Topograph reads ACRA (Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority) and ACRA Open Data (data.gov.sg) and returns the company profile, legal representatives, other key persons and shareholders of Singapore companies through one API.

Singapore company data is available through `POST /v2/company` with `countryCode: "SG"`. Coverage and live datapoints are evolving: see the [changelog](https://docs.topograph.co/changelog) for the latest updates.

## Coverage

What comes back for each datapoint and document, as on the coverage matrix.

Requests run in prefill mode (fast) or verification mode (the authoritative register answer).

| Datapoint | Returned | Note |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Company profile | Yes |  |
| Legal representatives | Yes | Comes back in Verify. |
| Other key persons | Yes | Comes back in Verify. |
| Shareholders | Yes | Comes back in Verify. |

| Document | Returned |
| --- | --- |
| Register extract | Yes |
| Articles of association | No |
| Financials | No |
| UBO extract | No |

### Documents, as the register names them

- Business Profile

### Speed

A company profile typically comes back from the register in 1 s in prefill mode. These are typical observations, not a service-level commitment: set your timeouts well above them.
