TL;DR. Montenegro’s business registry is the Centralni Registar Privrednih Subjekata (CRPS). https://portal.crps.me, https://crps.me and https://www.crps.me did not answer securely when last checked. Over plain HTTP, the crps.me domain served a domain-for-sale page in English, headed crps.me, carrying “This domain may be for sale!” and “Buy this domain. | More domains at Seo.Domains”, with no forms on it at all. No CRPS search page could be reached, so no euro fee is quoted here; confirm at source. https://www.cbcg.me, the Central Bank of Montenegro, is online. http://www.antikorupcija.me redirects to a secure address whose certificate chain is incomplete; the page behind it is titled Početna.
What is the official Montenegro business registry?
CRPS is Montenegro’s central registry of business entities. The named portal is https://portal.crps.me. It did not answer when last checked, and while the crps.me domain still resolves it serves a domain-for-sale page rather than a CRPS search form. No replacement search address is published.
https://www.cbcg.me is the Central Bank of Montenegro site, in Serbian with an English section at /en. It is not a CRPS search.
Montenegro uses the euro unilaterally and is an EU candidate.
What can you search?
No CRPS registry search page could be reached: the crps.me domain serves a sale page rather than name, PDV or founder fields. No public beneficial ownership access through CRPS could be confirmed; confirm at source.
How much does it cost?
| Item | Cost (EUR) | Cost (USD, approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| Online company search | Unknown | Unknown |
| CRPS extract | Unknown | Unknown |
| Certified CRPS extract | Unknown | Unknown |
No CRPS tariff is published on any page that could be reached, so the table above reads unknown rather than free; confirm at source.
Do you need a local account or ID?
The crps.me sale page carries no CRPS login, user ID, password or account form at all, and the CBCG home page carries no CRPS account or local-ID fields. Neither is therefore shown as required, but that reflects the pages that could be reached rather than a working CRPS application; confirm at source.
Is the website in English?
Partial. The crps.me sale page is in English, and the CBCG home page is Serbian with an English link. No CRPS registry search page could be reached to confirm its language; confirm at source.
What’s the turnaround time?
Unknown. No CRPS page that could be reached publishes a turnaround; confirm at source.
Is there an API?
No public API is documented, and no CRPS portal page could be reached.
What you legally cannot do
No CRPS terms page could be reached. Do not assume bulk scraping is allowed.
Practical tips for foreign compliance buyers
- The sale page is not a CRPS search. crps.me shows a Seo.Domains sale banner and no forms.
- CBCG is not CRPS. cbcg.me is online and lists licensed financial institutions.
- The Anti-Corruption Agency site has a certificate problem. antikorupcija.me does not load securely; the page behind it is titled Početna, and its PEP declarations could not be read; confirm at source.
- FATF. Check the current FATF lists at fatf-gafi.org.
Alternatives if you cannot access the registry directly
- Central Bank of Montenegro (cbcg.me): licensed financial institutions, not company search.
- Anti-Corruption Agency (ASK) (antikorupcija.me): reachable, but its certificate chain is incomplete.
- Local attorneys in Podgorica: the practical route while no CRPS search page can be reached.
