Look up a Japanese company/organization by its 13-digit NTA corporate number.
Tool description as the model sees it
Look up one Japanese corporation/organization by its 13-digit 法人番号 (corporate number) in Japan’s National Tax Agency register: legal name, katakana reading and English name when NTA holds one, address, corporate-kind (stock company, LLC, government body, etc.) and status (active, or closed/merged with the date and successor number). Validates the check digit before looking up. Use for “what company is corporate number 1234567890123”, verifying a Japanese business is real, or resolving a 法人番号 found elsewhere.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
number | string | yes | The 13-digit 法人番号 (corporate number), digits only, e.g. “1000012160153”. |
