Florida

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

Topograph reads Florida Division of Corporations, Bulk File and Florida Division of Corporations, Live Search and returns the company profile, legal representatives and other key persons of Florida companies through one API.

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).

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

  • Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations: bulk distribution of the Corporate Data File. Public dataset covering every active Florida corporation, LLC, limited partnership, non-profit corporation, and declaration of trust. Quarterly full snapshot and daily deltas, distributed as fixed-width ASCII files.

  • Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations: the public search.sunbiz.org register. Queried at request time to (a) search the register directly by name or document number, so entities registered too recently to appear in the Corporate Data File are still findable, (b) retrieve full officer and director rosters for entities whose bulk record exceeds the 6-officer cap, and (c) provide PDF filings (Articles, Annual Reports, amendments, Certificate of Status) that are not distributed in bulk.

  • Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation – Legal Entity Identifier reference data

Request a company by its Document Number as the id, with countryCode set to US-FL. Its format, validation rules and an example value are in the full reference.

The full reference covers how each datapoint is sourced and mapped, the vocabularies the API returns, the documents you can order and exact example responses. It is free with a Topograph account.
