Frequently asked questions

What is an SOS Business Search API?

Arrow

An SOS Business Search is an automated tool that connects the user to the Secretary of State (SOS) filings. For example, with iDenfy’s SOS API, you can look up public business records held by each state’s Secretary of State. You can search by business name, ID number, etc., and the software returns info like entity status, formation date, and address, among other details, depending on your chosen workflow. Ultimately, each U.S. state has its own SOS search portal.
