## Checks before the first order

A new supplier is a new counterparty. Confirm the entity exists and is active, capture its identifiers for the vendor master, and re-check the panel on a schedule so a change in status reaches you before it reaches an invoice.

- Entity and status check
- Identifiers and legal form for the vendor master
- Batch re-checks for the whole panel

## One check for a global panel

A supplier panel spans many countries. Batch verify re-checks up to 100 suppliers in one call and returns per-item results, so you act on the records that changed and leave the rest alone.

- Batch up to 100 per call
- Per-item results and errors
- Same supplier billed at most once a day

## A supplier, vetted before the first order

Vet one supplier end to end. Ahlsell Sverige AB resolves from the name search to 5560129206, and the company call returns its Stockholm address, its Aktiebolag legal form and the registration date of 3 December 1915. The VAT number SE556012920601 validates in the same pass, so the vendor master is filled from one response.

- company se/5560129206: active, Aktiebolag, Stockholm
- EU-VAT SE556012920601 validated in the same call
- Batch re-checks up to 100 suppliers per call

## FAQ

### Does the vendor record come with a source?

Yes. Each response names the source register and the attribution, and the company record carries field-level provenance, so the vendor master stays auditable.

### Can I integrate this with my procurement or AP system?

There is a REST API, a hosted MCP server and an OpenAPI 3.1 spec, so the check can drop into a vendor-onboarding step or an agent workflow.

### Do you cover suppliers worldwide?

Yes. Coverage spans Europe, the Americas and Asia-Pacific, and the coverage page lists every register with the fields it returns.
