A South African Pty Ltd carries a registration number that tells its own story — year, sequence and the /07 suffix marking a private company — and a status that shifts quickly when annual returns stop. Order the official record for any South African Pty Ltd: identity, status, directors and registered office, in minutes.

South Africa deregisters non-filing companies at scale, which makes the status field the most volatile — and most valuable — part of a Pty Ltd record. A company can slide from active trading to "deregistration process" within a filing cycle, and many owners only discover it when a bank or counterparty runs the check first.
Matching the exact registered name and number matters equally: trading names are unregulated, and B-BBEE certificates or letterheads often quote a brand rather than the legal entity.
The official record for the Pty Ltd: registered name, registration number, incorporation date, status, registered office and director details as published — structured data plus a branded PDF, emailed in minutes. From €4.99, one-time payment, no account.
Three parts: the year of registration, a six-digit sequence and a type suffix — /07 for private companies, /23 for close corporations, /08 for non-profit companies. A number whose year contradicts the company's claimed history is an instant flag.
"In business" is the healthy state; companies that skip annual returns move into deregistration process and can end fully deregistered, losing legal personality while their name keeps appearing on quotes and invoices.
Yes — the official company record includes director details, and they belong in any counterparty file alongside the registered office and status.
