Free, open beneficial-ownership data exists in exactly 3 out of 30 EU/EEA countries.

UK Companies House, Latvia's UR and Estonia's e-Business Register hand over who actually owns a company — free, structured, machine-readable. Most of the EU closed that door in 2022.

The EU's own fix, BORIS, was supposed to be the answer. As of early 2026 it's technically connected only 17 of 30 countries — and even there, it's not an API. It's a manual, one-company-at-a-time search that hands you back a PDF. Only France and Spain grant standing access once legitimate interest is proven; everywhere else, including Germany, reviews every request one company at a time. Germany's own applicants have been waiting since March 2025.

We don't wait for that to get fixed. Germany is the clearest case: no free API for the Handelsregister or the Transparenzregister. So we connect a paid aggregator instead — about €0.25 per beneficial-ownership lookup — and the check stays complete. We're not locked into one vendor: wherever a client needs a specific closed jurisdiction covered, we can plug in a provider for it.

"It's not a sanctioned country" is not a compliance answer.

Same code — CN 8471500000, processing units — to two destinations.

→ Türkiye. Export is legal. But the item is on the EU/G7 Common High Priority Items list, it correlates to dual-use entries, and Türkiye is a documented re-export corridor. Result: review required — screen the end-user.

→ Russia. The sanctions layer fires too — the code is named in four annexes of Regulation 833/2014, including Annex XL, which is the high-priority-items list written into the sanctions regulation.

Same good, same platform. Neither answer is "clear."

"Review required" is not a block. It means: screen the consignee, confirm the end-use, keep the check on file. When the buyer is a distributor — that's where diversion risk is highest and least visible.

Question for you: if a shipment to Kazakhstan or the UAE clears customs clean, does your team run a second check on the goods themselves — or is a clean tariff lookup enough?

We sometimes joke about compliance — because sometimes the products write the jokes for us.
Today’s declarant’s nightmare begins with “just a toy”: a pink inflatable flamingo with a USB-C port.
Two questions later, it has an LED light, a speaker, Bluetooth and a missing chip datasheet.

Five minutes ago, it was a flamingo. Now it’s a classification case.
Welcome back to our compliance comedy series with Anna.
Before your next “just a toy” becomes a technical file, visit compliance-mcp.com and see how the platform works.

You screened the payment. Once, for one name.

An ISO 20022 payment message names up to six parties: the debtor's bank, its correspondent bank, the actual payer, one or more intermediary banks, the creditor's bank, and the creditor. Screening "the counterparty from the invoice" reaches maybe two of them.

The intermediary bank is the one that gets missed most. Nobody typed it into anything — it shows up on its own, as part of how the payment gets routed between banks. That's exactly where risk can ride through unnoticed while everyone's watching the beneficiary.

New issue of "You asked": who these six parties actually are, why the intermediary bank never makes it into an invoice, and why a message that doesn't match its own ISO 20022 schema is already worth a second look — regardless of who's named in it.

Every vendor in this space has a big number on their homepage. "500+ sources." "1,000+ data points." One of them is probably counting the same OFAC list six times under different product names.

Ours is 110+. It's not a bigger number because we made it up smaller — it's a live SQL count, and we could inflate it in about four minutes if we wanted to play that game.

Here's the part that's actually interesting: it's not one number, it's six-ish different jobs wearing one trench coat. Sanctions (44). Export control (31). PEP/EDD (12). Maritime risk (8). MDB debarment (5). Customs (2). Plus the legal reference stuff holding it all together.

Screen a company name and you never touch the maritime or customs sources. Classify a CN code and PEP never enters the chat. So next time someone quotes you a big scary source count, ask which category actually backed the answer you got — not the number on the slide.

If seriously — here's the original, with the real breakdown:

A registry shows you the company. It doesn't show you who owns it.

Finding the company isn't finding the owner.

In most of the EU, "the company registry" and "the beneficial-ownership registry" are two separate databases. Until November 2022, most member states let anyone look up beneficial owners online — then the EU's top court struck that down as a privacy violation, and country after country closed public access. Denmark shut theirs in September 2025. Slovakia, July 2025.

What's left free and open across the whole EU/EEA today: the UK, Latvia, Estonia. Everywhere else, it's a "legitimate interest" application or a paid aggregator — and the EU's own fix doesn't fully apply until 10 July 2027.

There's also a common misconception worth clearing up: BORIS, the EU's cross-border search tool, isn't an open database. It's a routing layer — it shows you exactly what each country's own closed register lets it show. Query a country that's been shut since 2022, and BORIS hands you the same locked door.
