Is this company on a Japan Financial Services Agency (金融庁) register of licensed or registered financial business operators? Reads the agency’s per-category registers (${CATEGORIES.length} company categories: financial instruments business operators (securities firms, investment advisers and managers), crypto-asset exchange service providers, electronic payment instrument providers, funds transfer providers, banks and bank holding companies, registered financial institutions, life and non-life insurers, insurance brokers, shinkin banks, credit cooperatives, money lenders registered with a Local Finance Bureau, electronic payment agents, trust companies, registered investment corporations, third-party prepaid issuers). Returns each matching entry as published: category, registration number, registration date, registering bureau, 13-digit corporate number, postal code, registered-office address, phone, and for securities firms the business types held. Names on the lists are Japanese, so search in Japanese (or in Latin script only where a firm registered itself that way); old-form kanji and 株式会社 forms are folded. data_as_of is the oldest list date among the categories read. No hit means no matching name on the categories listed in categories_checked, not that the firm is unlicensed: categories not read (individual intermediaries, agents, small registers) are listed in not_covered, and a category that could not be read is in categories_failed and prevents a no_hit. Example: name=“野村證券”.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | yes | Company name, normally in Japanese (e.g. 野村證券, ビットフライヤー). At least 2 characters after dropping corporate-form words. |
category | string | no | Optional: restrict to one category by id or Japanese name (${CATEGORIES.map((c) => c.id).join(’, ’)}). Default: all covered categories. |
limit | number | no | Maximum matches returned (1-50, default 10); total_matches always gives the full count. |
