Search, advanced search and saved searches

Start with a name or number

Use public search to find a company by name or company number, or switch to officer search. Open the profile and check its number or appointments before saving it. Basic company and officer searches are available without signing in.

Narrow company results

Advanced search is available on paid plans. Filter by company name, status, type, industry, location and available incorporation or dissolution dates. Location describes the registered office, rather than everywhere a company trades. Narrow broad searches when the results reach the displayed limit.

Save a search

Run an advanced search and choose Save search. Give the filters a useful name, then reopen them from Saved searches. Rerunning starts on the first page with current available results. A saved search remembers your filters; it does not monitor companies or send alerts. Use a Discovery rule for future matching activity.

Export the current page

On a paid plan, choose Download spreadsheet (CSV) to export the current results page, up to 20 rows. It does not download every matching company. Move to another page for those results; each successful download uses the account’s shared monthly CSV allowance. If search is using CHouse.UK’s copy of the register, read the coverage message: some companies, including dissolved companies, may be missing.
