Search CAC's register
Businesses on CAC’s register that match a name or number, best match first: the registered name, the register (BN, RC, IT, LP or LLP), status and registration date. Free, in both modes; test keys search the real register too. At most 30 searches a minute with a live key, 10 with a test key.
