Delaware Business Licence Search by Business Name: Licence Number, Category, Validity Dates (State of Delaware)

delawareopendata/business-name-search

Searches the State of Delaware Division of Revenue's business licence register by business name: every licence whose business name contains the text you give (case-insensitive), up to 25 rows ordered by business name, each with business name, trade name, licence category (for example wholesaler, manufacturer, non-resident contractor), the start and end dates of the current licence, the address and the licence number. Only the business name is searched, not the trade name or address. An unmatched name returns an empty list. Many licensed businesses are located outside Delaware. Dates carry no time zone.
