Taiwanese companies are registered under the Company Act with the Ministry of Economic Affairs or, for smaller companies, the city and county governments it delegates to. The Ministry publishes the register through its Commercial and Industrial Registration Public Information Search Service, which shows a company's capital, representative, directors and supervisors with their shareholdings, managers and change history.
Fill Easy returns the registration data and the filed registration documents by email to agent@fill-easy.com or through the REST API. Records are in Traditional Chinese. Every result records the source, the retrieval time and the request ID.
Registry
經濟部商工登記公示資料查詢服務
Administration of Commerce, Ministry of Economic Affairs (經濟部商業發展署), formerly the Department of Commerce until September 2023
The Administration of Commerce is the central competent authority for company registration. It registers companies with paid-in capital of NT$1 billion or more and delegates the rest to the six special municipalities and its central Taiwan office. All registrations are published in one national search service.
The free search accepts a company name, unified business number, factory registration number, address, representative or the name of a director, supervisor or manager. A company page is in three parts: basic data, directors and supervisors by title and name with the juristic person they represent and shares held, and managers with dates of appointment, with links to branches, factories and historical data.
The search shows registration status only. Whether a company is actually trading and tax-registered is a matter for the Ministry of Finance's business tax registration search.
Unified business number (統一編號)
8 digits, for example 22555003. The same number serves as the company's tax identification number and is used on uniform invoices.
| Document | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Company basic registration data (公司基本資料) | Unified business number, registration status, name, authorised and paid-in capital, representative, registered address, registration authority, date of approval of establishment and date of last change, and business scope codes. |
| Directors and supervisors data (董監事資料) | Each director and supervisor by title, name, the juristic person they represent where applicable, and shares held. |
| Managers data (經理人資料) | Registered managers with their dates of appointment. |
| Company registration form (公司登記表 or 公司變更登記表) | The latest registration or change registration form on the company's file. For a limited company (有限公司) it lists each member and their capital contribution; for a company limited by shares it lists directors, supervisors and share capital. |
| Articles of incorporation (公司章程) | The company's constitution as last filed: capital, shares, board composition, meetings and distribution of profits. |
| Historical data (歷史資料) | The record of past changes to name, capital, representative, directors and address. |
Search the Ministry of Economic Affairs' public information service by name or 8-digit unified business number. The result shows status, capital, representative and directors free of charge. Fill Easy returns the data as a dated record with the source noted.
An 8-digit number assigned at registration that identifies the company for registration, tax and invoicing. It is the number to use when ordering any Taiwan company document.
Partly. The public register shows directors and supervisors with their shares. For a limited company, the registration form lists all members and contributions. For a company limited by shares, shareholders other than directors and supervisors are not public.
Yes. The articles are a public item under Article 393 of the Company Act, so anyone may apply to the registration authority for a copy; the fee rules set NT$10 per copy, or NT$10 per item for online retrieval of the latest electronic file, which the Act allows with the company's consent. Fill Easy orders the copy and returns it.
No. The Ministry publishes registration data in Traditional Chinese. Translation is a separate step.
