Look up or search the global LEI (Legal Entity Identifier)...

Look up or search the global LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) registry — the authoritative ISO 17442 directory of ~2.6M legal entities worldwide. Pass lei for an exact 20-character LEI, or query to search by legal/other name (ranked best-match first; the query needs at least one word of 2+ letters/digits, and the last word is prefix-matched when 3+ characters). Results page up to the first 1,000 matches (offset + limit <= 1000) — narrow with country/status rather than paging deeper. Filter name search by country (ISO 2-letter, HQ country) and status (active = currently active entities only; all = default). Each result returns the LEI, legal name, an alternate/other name, legal jurisdiction, entity category (GENERAL/FUND/BRANCH/…), ISO 20275 legal-form code, entity status (ACTIVE/INACTIVE), LEI registration status (ISSUED/LAPSED/RETIRED/…), headquarters city/region/country/postal code, the initial registration + last update + next renewal dates, and the managing LOU. Use this to canonicalize a company name to its LEI, resolve a counterparty, or enrich a vendor master. Data: GLEIF Golden Copy (CC0, public domain).
