What our Antigua and Barbuda company report includes
Our Antigua and Barbuda reports draw on sources including IPCO, the Inland Revenue Department, the FSRC for regulated entities, and the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court; fees may apply for certain records. Coverage of any individual source depends on what the subject company has filed and what is publicly accessible at the time of the search.
The territory's companies registry is the Commerce section of the Antigua and Barbuda Intellectual Property and Commerce Office (ABIPCO, formerly IPCO), a department of the Ministry of Legal Affairs established under the Intellectual Property Office Act 2003.

The IBC regime has been reformed with substance requirements; Citizenship by Investment programme participants require additional PEP-style screening.
Why verify an Antiguan company?
Antigua and Barbuda's combination of tourism, reformed IBC framework and Citizenship by Investment programme shapes its verification profile. For overseas counterparties, the practical questions concentrate on the IPCO register confirmation, substance compliance for IBCs, and standard sanctions/PEP screening, with additional attention to any CBI-programme indicators for individual principals.
