What is an Anguilla Certificate of Good Standing?
Learn what the Anguilla Certificate of Good Standing confirms, how the CRES registry system operates, and what makes this jurisdiction's approach distinctive.
Registrar Certification of Active Company Status
An Anguilla Certificate of Good Standing is issued by the Registrar of Companies through the CRES (Commercial Registration Electronic System) and certifies that your company is actively registered under the Business Companies Act 2022, has paid all annual fees, and faces no pending dissolution or strike-off action. While the formal certificate is obtained through the registered agent, Anguilla's CRES public search uniquely allows anyone to verify a company's good standing status online at no cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers about obtaining a Certificate of Good Standing for your Anguilla company
The formal certificate is obtained through the company's licensed registered agent, who has direct access to the CRES registry system. Third parties cannot independently order a certificate, but they can verify a company's standing for free through the public CRES search portal.
CRES (Commercial Registration Electronic System) is Anguilla's electronic registry. Its public search portal allows anyone to look up a company and see its current status — Active and in Good Standing, Not in Good Standing, Dissolved, or Pending Strike Off. While this provides immediate confirmation, it is not a substitute for the formal certificate when an officially signed document is required.
The company must be current on all annual fees, have filed its last annual return or fee payment, and must not be in the process of being struck off. If the company migrated from the former IBC Act, it must have completed its transition to the Business Companies Act 2022 framework.
No. Anguilla does not require companies to file director or shareholder information with the registry. These records are held privately by the registered agent. The certificate confirms only the company's registration status and compliance standing.
Typical use cases include satisfying bank due diligence during account reviews, providing evidence of legal standing for cross-border transactions, supporting applications for foreign licences or permits, and demonstrating compliance to commercial counterparties during contract negotiations.
The Registrar typically processes requests within one to three working days. Including our preparation, submission, and delivery, the total turnaround is generally three to five business days.
Most institutions accept certificates dated within the previous six months. Some banks may require a more recent version, so it is worth checking the specific requirement before ordering.
If there are outstanding fees or compliance issues, the Registrar will not issue the certificate until they are resolved. We can identify the outstanding items, manage fee payments, and file any overdue returns to restore your company's eligibility.
Yes. There is no need to visit Anguilla. We manage the entire process remotely — from compliance verification through CRES submission to final delivery of the certified document.
Our pricing includes government fees, compliance review, registry processing, and secure digital delivery. Check the pricing section on this page for the current rate. International courier is available as an optional add-on.
