Israel company number check
Check that a Israel company number is well formed and its check digit is right, before you pay or onboard a supplier. Format only
Example: 520013954 (Teva Pharmaceutical Industries). No account needed: 10 lookups a day per network, shared with the keyless API.
What this check tells you
Format only
We check the structure and the check digit published by the issuing authority, offline. That catches typos and made-up numbers. It does not show that the business exists, is registered or is active, so a well-formed number gets review, never pass.
Israel ID formats we check
| ID type | Level | Check digit | API endpoint | Official lookup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| COMPANY Company number (ח.פ.), also the VAT file number of companies | Format only | Luhn-type (same as the Israeli ID number) | GET /v1/il/company/{id} | None |
From code
Same key and quota as every other country. A well-formed request costs one lookup; a source that does not answer returns HTTP 503 and is not counted.

Questions
Does a valid company number mean the company exists?
No. This is a format check: it confirms the structure and check digit, not that the business exists or is active. Ask the supplier for its registration certificate.
Where does the data come from?
No registry is queried. The rules come from the issuing authority's published format and check-digit algorithm (Luhn-type (same as the Israeli ID number)).
Can I check company numbers from code or in bulk?
Yes. The same check is available over the REST API (GET /v1/il/company/{id}) and the MCP server, with the same key as every other country. See the API docs.
