Fylings
Search 1M+ African companies and their real owners
Fylings provides a comprehensive company information platform for Africa, offering deep insights into over one million companies. Key features include:
• Search companies across 18 official African registries
• Verify registration status, directors, and beneficial ownership
• Monitor companies for changes in real time
• Access source-stamped records and confidence signals
• Programmatic access via API for enhanced integration
This platform allows users to find any company by name, registration number, or NINEA across countries like Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania, and OHADA member states. Each record is directly sourced from official registries, providing provenance and a confidence signal, ensuring the data is reliable and up-to-date. Users can confirm if a company is active and legally registered, with transparent information on when the data was last checked.
Fylings is ideal for due diligence processes, business verification, and compliance requirements. Fintechs and banks can streamline Know Your Business (KYB) and onboarding by verifying companies, directors, and ownership before transactions. International investors and members of the diaspora can vet African companies remotely, while journalists and researchers can trace corporate structures and public records with confidence. The platform helps ensure users never miss critical changes like company dissolutions, director updates, or filing modifications.
Basic company searches are free, offering essential verification without requiring a signup. For more advanced needs, such as enhanced records, documents, monitoring services, and API access, paid options are available. This makes Fylings an indispensable resource for anyone needing definitive company-intelligence for business operations, investments, or research across the African continent.
