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

Topograph reads Minnesota Business & Lien System and returns the company profile, legal representatives and other key persons of Minnesota 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).

Datapoints

  • Company profileYes
  • Legal representativesYes
  • Other key personsYes

Documents

  • Register extractYes
  • Articles of associationNo
  • FinancialsNo
  • UBO extractNo
  • MBLS Business Record Details

A company profile typically comes back from the register in 3 s in prefill mode and 3 s in verification mode.

These are typical observations, not a service-level commitment: set your timeouts well above them.

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

  • Official Minnesota Secretary of State business entity register served through the Minnesota Business & Lien System (MBLS). The public portal supports business-name and file-number search and exposes legal name, file number, business type, filing status, filing date, renewal due date, registered office and principal executive office addresses, filing history, and filed registered agents / managers / officers when available. The Secretary of State also offers monthly zipped CSV bulk data by request through MBLS Portal Transaction History; delivery requires an account and, for commercial users, a license agreement and fee.

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

Request a company by its Minnesota File Number as the id, with countryCode set to US-MN. 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.
