Ireland — CRO Lookup

Live, direct-to-government access to Companies Registration Office (CRO) — An Oifig Chláraithe Cuideachtaí.

Single-country variant of the cross-border Cross-Border UBO Chain Walker. Use this skill when the user is explicitly focused on Ireland.

What you get

• Unmodified responses. Field names, status codes, and (where available) raw filing bytes are returned exactly as the registry's own system emits them.
• Native ID format support. 6-digit CRO number (e.g. 462571 Apple Operations International Limited).
• Sample entity: Apple Operations International Limited.

Quirks specific to Ireland

• Ireland's RBO (Register of Beneficial Owners) is publicly accessible at https://rbo.gov.ie/ — get_persons_with_significant_control is on the roadmap.
• Irish entities are often holding vehicles in cross-border tax structures (Double Irish, Irish DAC, etc.) — note the company type in profile.
• Filings are returned as PDF documents; fetch_document is on the roadmap for IE.
• Designated Activity Company (DAC) and Public Limited Company (PLC) are the most common Irish corporate types.
