How do you search Liechtenstein's Commercial Register?

Use the official company index (opens in a new tab) of Liechtenstein's Commercial Register to search by company name or number. Its search also offers previous company names and deleted companies. The index says it provides a free partial extract for registered legal entities and offers a certified full extract for a fee. Match the registration number and legal form before relying on a name match.

Which record should you request?

Start with the free partial extract to identify the legal entity and frame the next question. Fill Easy's Liechtenstein document list identifies a Register Extract for available company particulars. The National Administration's access guidance (opens in a new tab) says commercial-register extracts can be ordered for a fee and are generally issued in certified form. Check the actual extract for its issue date, officers and the fields relevant to your decision; a catalogue field list is not a guarantee that every legal form has every field.

A practical search sequence

1. Search the exact registered name or number in the official index. If a counterparty uses an older name, include previous company names and compare the registration number across results.
2. Open the partial extract and verify the legal form and registered office against the contract or onboarding documents. Order a certified full extract if you need fuller evidence of the registered entity or representatives.
3. Save the register source, registration number, extract issue date and retrieval date. Ask for current supporting evidence if a later change is claimed.

For example, a Liechtenstein company may submit an agreement under its former name. Search that name with the previous-name option, match the number to the current result and obtain a full extract if the agreement signer's authority is the point you need to confirm. If the signer is not established by the extract, request a separate mandate.

Ownership and access limits

A commercial-register extract does not by itself trace every ultimate owner. Follow any corporate shareholder through its own records and check control outside direct shareholding. The National Administration also notes restricted access to some deposited foundation and trust material, so do not treat an absent public record as proof that a structure does not exist.

Fill Easy lists Liechtenstein extracts for manual retrieval. Send the legal name, registration number and the specific record question through CorpVerify or the email channel; confirm availability, price and turnaround with the order.
