# Alaska

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

> **Beta**: this country is in early development. Some datapoints or documents may be missing, the integration may be unstable, prices may change without notice, and it is not covered by SLAs.

## Overview

Topograph reads Alaska Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development, Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing and returns the company profile, legal representatives, other key persons and shareholders of Alaska companies through one API.

## 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 |
| --- | --- |
| Company profile | Yes |
| Legal representatives | Yes |
| Other key persons | Yes |
| Shareholders | Partly |

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

### Documents, as the register names them

- Alaska CBP Entity Detail (printed)
- Creation Filing

### Speed

A company profile typically comes back from the register in 1 s in prefill mode and 30 s in verification mode. These are typical observations, not a service-level commitment: set your timeouts well above them.

## Sources

The registers this country’s data comes from. Secondary sources only enrich or check what the registers return.

- **[Alaska Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development, Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing](https://www.commerce.alaska.gov/cbp/main/search/entities)**: Official Alaska business entity register maintained by the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing inside the Alaska Department of Commerce. Covers every entity formed or registered under Title 10 of the Alaska Statutes: business corporations (AS 10.06), nonprofit corporations (AS 10.20), professional corporations (AS 10.45), limited liability companies (AS 10.50), limited partnerships and limited liability partnerships, cooperative associations, and the assumed/fictitious 'business name' registrations filed under AS 10.35. Each entity is assigned an Alaska Entity Number: up to 8 digits for entities in the current numbering (e.g. 10310827), or digits followed by a `D`, `F`, `PD` or `PF` suffix for older entities (e.g. 1089D, formed 1937). The CBP public portal exposes the full entity profile for any registered entity (legal name and name variants, current status, AK formation date, duration / expiration, home state, next biennial-report due date, entity mailing and physical addresses), the registered agent with mailing and physical addresses, the officials roster with titles (Director, Officer, Member, Shareholder, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and others) and ownership percentage where reported, and the full filing history.
