What’s included in an international credit report?
Drawing on data collected from over 9,000 global sources, including official company registries, government gazettes, courts, trade payment contributors, and trusted local partners, our international credit reports provide comprehensive business insight worldwide. While data availability varies by country due to local filing requirements and regulations, reports typically include:
-
Verified company name, address, and contact details
Access confirmed business identity information sourced from official registries and reliable local providers. This helps ensure you are reviewing and onboarding the correct legal entity before extending credit or entering into a contract.
-
Credit scores and recommended credit limits
Review a standardized international credit score designed to help you assess risk consistently across borders. The recommended credit limit supports confident decision-making when setting payment terms or approving trade credit.
-
Officer and corporate linkage information
Access details on current and, where available, previous directors, along with associated company connections. Corporate linkage data helps uncover group structures, related entities, and cross-border affiliations that may impact your overall risk assessment.
-
Payment trends and DBT
In many countries, reports include supplier contributed payment behavior data. This insight shows how a company pays its invoices in practice and helps you evaluate real world payment performance beyond filed financials.
-
Court judgments and negative data
Identify legal filings, court judgments, insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and other adverse information where available. Early visibility of negative events enables you to take proactive steps to mitigate risk.
I have used Creditsafe for a couple of years now... It is the "go to" report for our underwriting needs. I love the International reports! The customer service is exceptional, the reports are full of current data and the prices are unparalleled to the other reports. I highly recommend Creditsafe!

Frequently asked questions
What’s included in an international business credit report?
Our international business credit reports include most of the information you would expect to find in a local report. We sometimes need to gather information from other local sources so the information may vary country by country.
Where do you get your data?
Our data is collected from over 200 sources; where possible we will collect information from official registries. Our network of 16 offices and trusted local partners allow us to collect information locally; ensuring we always deliver quality, fresh information.
How does a fresh investigation work?
When a company report is not available to view online you have the opportunity to freshly investigate a business. Once this request is received we will attempt to contact the company directly using our network of local partners and official registries to provide a detailed international business credit report within as little as 2–10 working days.
Why is the credit scoring banded A to E, rather than 1 – 100?
Because not all countries use a 1-100 score; using an A-E score makes it easier for you to compare the credit risk of companies from across different countries. A is the lowest risk, D the highest risk and E is unrated.
How long will it take to receive my report?
99.9% of all reports requested by our customers are typically delivered instantly online. When a company report is not available a fresh investigation will take between 2-10 working days depending on the country.
How often are the reports updated?
Creditsafe international database reports are updated in real-time, over 1 million times a day.
