Iceland business credit reports

Check an Icelandic business using its kennitala and registered name. Prepare a company credit report request with enough detail to distinguish the counterparty from similar names or English translations.

Information to prepare for your Iceland company check

  • Registered Icelandic name, including its legal form
  • Company kennitala, when supplied
  • Registered address and any English name used in correspondence

Include the identifiers you have. If the legal entity is uncertain, ask our team before ordering. Do not substitute your billing details for the subject company’s details.

Icelandic annual-account filing checks

Skatturinn’s annual-accounts register publishes a search for overdue annual filings by name or kennitala. The page specifies that its results concern the selected financial year. That year matters: a check for one period should not be read as a complete statement about every year of the company’s history.

Keep Icelandic letters in the company name

Send the spelling from the company’s documents, preserving characters such as þ, ð, and accented letters. Add its kennitala and address rather than relying on an English brand. If your paperwork includes a former name, label that separately and give the document date.

A filing issue needs its context

If an annual-account search raises a question, record the year and retrieval date and ask what information can be obtained for your report. A filing result does not itself explain a customer’s payment record. Compare the available company information with the particular order or relationship you are reviewing.

What can the report include?

Depending on the company and available sources, a report may cover registration, ownership, financial statements, payment information, public records, and a credit assessment. Information is not equally available in every market. Check the company identity, source dates, and qualifications in the delivered report.

Does Iceland’s overdue-filing search describe every accounting year?

The page says results apply to the selected year. Check the relevant period explicitly and retain that context when discussing missing documents or preparing a company report request.
