OpenRegistry integrates Iceland's company register for efficient KYB checks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

OpenRegistry has integrated Iceland's national company register, managed by Skatturinn (the Directorate of Internal Revenue), into its MCP platform. This integration allows for efficient querying of legal entities using their unique Icelandic identification number, the kennitala. The platform returns core identity and basic management details directly from Skatturinn, preserving the original Icelandic terminology for auditor preference. While the register provides incorporation status and officer roles, sensitive beneficial ownership information is not publicly available, aligning with European data access trends following a court ruling.
