# Puerto Rico

Company data from the Puerto Rico business register, through the Topograph API.

> **Beta**: this country is in early development. We are still expanding and refining its coverage. 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 Puerto Rico Department of State, Register of Corporations and Entities, FCA Financial Instruments Reference Data, ESMA Financial Instruments Reference Data and ISO Market Identifier Codes and returns the company profile and legal representatives of Puerto Rico companies through one API.

Puerto Rico entities are registered with the **Department of State** in its Register of Corporations and Entities. Search it by register number or by name, then request the company profile with the identifier search returns: it carries the register number **with its suffix** (`59124-111`), because one register number can belong to several unrelated entities. The company profile and the officers the register lists are read live, in prefill and verification alike.

## Coverage

## Sources

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

- **[Puerto Rico Department of State, Register of Corporations and Entities](https://rcp.estado.pr.gov/en/search)**: Official register of corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships, cooperatives and other entities formed in or authorized to do business in Puerto Rico, kept by the Department of State under the General Corporations Act. Each entity page gives the legal name, register number, class, for-profit or non-profit type, domestic or foreign jurisdiction, date of formation, status, the designated office address, the resident agent, the officers listed in the latest filings, and the stated purpose.
- **[FCA Financial Instruments Reference Data](https://www.fca.org.uk/markets/transaction-reporting/instrument-reference-data)**: Issuer-approved equity and fund-unit admission or trading reported to the FCA on active UK markets classified RMKT in the ISO MIC directory. Source-scoped evidence; formal listing and AML eligibility require separate assessment.
