Good to know
- Enter a person's name as LastName FirstName for the best match; shareholder entities can also be searched.
- The active-only filter can still return other non-active roles for a person with at least one active role.
- The result includes the company number or NZBN; use nz_company_get for full company details.
- A role or shareholding entry does not prove beneficial or sole ownership. A no-match result is not clearance.
