About the register

Companies Registry

Isle of Man company records are held by the Companies Registry of the Isle of Man Government, based at the Registries Building in Douglas. Public company searches run through the Government's Online Services portal, where records are searched by company name or company number and filed documents are purchased. Manx companies are incorporated under two parallel regimes, the Companies Act 1931 and the Companies Act 2006, and the Registry keeps separate registries for each, alongside foreign companies, limited liability companies, limited partnerships and foundations.

The annual return is a snapshot of the company on the anniversary of its incorporation, due for filing within one month of its made-up date, and it is the one document every company must file each year whether trading or not. Separate forms apply: AR for a 1931 Act company, IMAR for a 2006 Act company and ARF for a foreign company. For share-issuing 1931 Act companies the return sets out the authorised and issued share capital, the names and addresses of shareholders with changes in the previous year, and the details of directors and secretary. Public companies deliver audited accounts annually; a private 1931 Act company generally does not.

Beneficial ownership sits outside the public file. Under the Beneficial Ownership Act 2017, each entity's nominated officer submits registrable beneficial ownership information electronically to the Isle of Man Database of Beneficial Ownership. Company Records resolves beneficial ownership by tracing registered shareholders up the ownership chain, entity by entity, from filings such as the annual return.

Good to know

Isle of Man company records — questions

Are these official records?
Yes. Every record is sourced from the official register, Online Services, at the moment you buy. It is registry data only — nothing aggregated, resold, or editorialised.
What exactly is a "Company Record"?
Two things in one purchase: the KYB report (company data, controlling parties, shareholders and beneficial owners) and the standard set of official registry documents needed for AML and KYB compliance.
Can I get additional filing documents?
Every record includes the standard document set for AML and KYB compliance. The official register holds further filings — listed above under "Available separately" — and if you need one beyond the standard set, contact us and we'll arrange it.
Can I get shareholders and beneficial owners?
Yes. This register publishes shareholder and beneficial-owner data, and the record includes it with the ownership chain resolved. The chain is our own work: registers file shareholdings, not the resolved ownership behind them.
How current is the information?
It is retrieved from the register at the time of purchase, so it reflects the register's current state — not a cached copy.
Do I need a subscription or a contract?
No. Buy a single record with a card. There is no subscription and no minimum.
What is an Isle of Man annual return?
It is a snapshot of the company on the anniversary of its incorporation, due for filing within one month of its made-up date, and every company must file one each year whether trading or not. Form AR is used for a 1931 Act company, IMAR for a 2006 Act company and ARF for a foreign company. The Company Records report for the Isle of Man includes the Annual Return, or the Memorandum of Association where no return has been filed yet.
Does the Isle of Man Companies Registry show shareholders?
For share-issuing companies under the Companies Act 1931, yes. The annual return includes the names and addresses of shareholders and changes in shareholdings over the previous year, together with the authorised and issued share capital and details of directors and secretary. These returns are filed with the Companies Registry and purchased through Online Services, and the Annual Return is included in the Company Records report.
What is the difference between a 1931 Act and a 2006 Act company?
The Isle of Man runs two parallel company regimes. Companies Act 1931 companies are designated public or private: a public company must deliver audited accounts to the Companies Registry annually, while a private company generally need not unless it is the subsidiary of a Manx public company. A 2006 Act company can only be incorporated through, and must retain, a registered agent licensed by the Isle of Man Financial Services Authority.
Is beneficial ownership public in the Isle of Man?
No. Registrable beneficial ownership information is submitted electronically by each entity's nominated officer to the Isle of Man Database of Beneficial Ownership under the Beneficial Ownership Act 2017, and it does not form part of the public company file. Since 31 December 2024 obliged entities have been able to request access to the Database, and a 2026 amendment set the registrable threshold at 25 per cent or more of ownership or control. Company Records resolves UBOs by following the registered shareholders up the ownership chain, entity by entity, from the public filings, so the closed Database does not prevent identification.
