1. Before you start

Use Screening Only to screen a company name without retrieving a registry record.

You need the company name, its jurisdiction and access to run screenings. A quick Company screening saves a screening record; it does not create a maintained Entity or set monitoring.

The Screening Only form is available for all jurisdictions. This name-only screening uses one screening credit.

The worked example shows the output captured for this guide. Results and source coverage can change.

Worked example

Azure Shipping Pte. Ltd. · Singapore (SG)

7. Common questions

If processing is waiting, keep the same saved record and check its retry information. Do not submit again just because the report is taking time.

If the screening fails or finishes with unavailable sources, read the error or limitations on the record. Contact support with the screening reference if needed. A report with missing checks requires review of those limitations.

8. Check completion

  • The company name and jurisdiction are correct.
  • You have checked the final status and source limitations.
  • You have read the report and assessed relevant candidates and sources.
  • You have saved the PDF if required and can reopen the record.
