- Enigma’s product covers corporate registration from 52 of the 52 states and jurisdictions (including Washington DC and Puerto Rico).
- However, it only has limited coverage of the following states because the Secretary of States provide only limited information. As of 10/2023, these states are MS, AL, CA, ME, OH, MO, NV, SC, DE, NJ, OK, WI.
- For coverage of these states for KYB purposes, please use the Registrations attribute on the KYB endpoint.
Methodology:
- Enigma shows all
corporate_registrations
associated with the business, beginning with any active registration filed in the state where that business is located, followed by any inactive registrations in that state ordered by recency (i.e. newest first). Registrations in other states are also ordered by active status, then by recency. - Each Secretary of State office provides a status for the registration filing. Enigma maps each of these statuses to “active”, “inactive” or null.
- This status field refers to whether the filing is considered active or inactive in the state in which it was filed, but does not take into account the “standing” of a filing.
- For example, each of “Good Standing”, “Active”, “In Existence”, “In Existence but not in good standing”, and “Active/Owes Current Year Ar” are mapped to Enigma’s “active” category.
- Examples of fields mapped to Enigma’s “inactive” category are “Forfeited”, “Dissolved”, “Terminated”, “Inactive”, “Suspended” and “Expired”
- Any registration filing without a status description is mapped to null
