NZAUConnect – the easy way to search trans-Tasman company names
NZAUConnect is all about bringing Kiwi and Aussie businesses a little closer together. 
The New Zealand Companies Office has teamed up with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission to make it easy for consumers to search New Zealand companies, and Australian companies and business names registers.
The result is a handy app that lets you instantly search both registers at once, for free. 
Two countries, one search. Anywhere. Anytime. Easy.
Using NZAUConnect, you can search over 2.5 million New Zealand and Australian companies and 1.7 million organisations on the Australian Business Names Register.
So how does it work? It’s easy. All you need to do is enter a company name or number and the app will display separate results for Australian and New Zealand matches.
At a glance, you’ll be able to tell the registration status of a company or business name, and with one simple click, reveal more details about the entity you're interested in. 
It’s perfect for checking out businesses before you start trading with them.
But, that’s not all. There are also a couple of handy features that make searching even easier. 
You can add a company as a favourite for later, or copy the details to the clipboard or share through email or text message. 
If you get stuck there’s text on screen to help you out.
You can downaload the app from either the Apple App Store or Google Play. 
NZAUConnect – when it comes to searching Australian and New Zealand company registers, nothing could be simpler.
