Sri Lanka’s business landscape is structured around three key types of entities: Sole Proprietorships, Partnerships, and Limited Liability Companies (LLCs). Each of these operates under distinct regulatory frameworks.
Sole Proprietorships and Partnerships fall under the jurisdiction of provincial business registrars, while Limited Liability Companies are governed by the Companies Act No. 07 of 2007 and regulated by the Registrar General of Companies. Among these, LLCs are the most prevalent, known for their separate legal entity status, which provides liability protection for their owners.
When engaging in complex business transactions, it’s crucial to “open the corporate veil” and gain insights into the key figures behind a company, such as its directors, shareholders, and any significant structural changes. Whether the company is newly established or has undergone transformations in its board or shareholding, these details can significantly impact the trustworthiness and outcome of a business transaction.
Our Comprehensive Company Search Report

At ASAC, we provide a professional Company Search service tailored to meet your specific needs. By accessing files from the Registrar General of Companies, we offer a detailed analysis and professional opinion based on the available data. Our report includes a timeline review of significant changes and an assessment of the company’s compliance with the Companies Act.

What Our Company Search Report Includes:
- Name of the company
- Date of incorporation
- Company registration number
- Current registered address
- Details of the directors
- Details of the shareholders
- Significant company changes
- Timeline review of corporate activities
This level of detail allows you to identify the directors and shareholders of a company, assess any substantial changes to its structure, and determine who the true owner of the company is.
However, please note that our report does not include financial details, as such information for private limited companies is not publicly accessible. We rely solely on data submitted by the company to the Registrar General of Companies.
