TL;DR. https://www.kkf.sr redirects to http://www.surinamechamber.com/, the site of the Kamer van Koophandel en Fabrieken, which is in Dutch and also serves over HTTPS. Its FAQ answers Wat kost een uittreksel? with SRD 300,-. E-services at https://e-services.surinamechamber.com is KKF Online Services, a register and log-in hub for naamgoedkeuring, inschrijving, and digitaal uittreksel.

What is the official Suriname business registry?
The Kamer van Koophandel en Fabrieken Suriname (KKF) maintains the Handelsregister. The published host kkf.sr redirects to surinamechamber.com, and that landing page is the KKF site.
The site is Dutch. It describes KKF E-Services: handelsnaam approval, eenmanszaak inschrijving, digitale uittreksels, One Stop Window, and vergunningen, and asks visitors to register for e-services access.
Entity types named in older accounts (NV, CVA, eenmanszaak, VOF, CV, stichting, bijkantoor) follow Dutch civil law labels; confirm at source.
Suriname is an independent republic since 25 November 1975, not a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. CARICOM membership is context rather than a search path.
What can you search?
Not anonymously. The public landing page is descriptive, and the e-services hub says to fill in a dossier number or enterprise name for a digital uittreksel, after which KKF processes the request. The request form itself sits behind the log-in.
How much does it cost?
Published on the KKF FAQ:
| Item | Cost (SRD) |
|---|---|
| Uittreksel (Wat kost een uittreksel?) | SRD 300,- |
Ranges of SRD 0 to 50 for a basic inquiry and SRD 50 to 200 for a certified extract appear in older accounts and are not published now; confirm at source. No USD conversion is published.
The Centrale Bank van Suriname at https://www.cbvs.sr is online for FX context. It carries no KKF fee table.
Do you need a local account or ID?
Yes for e-services. The hub says: no account yet? Register online or log in. Already registered but cannot log in? Check email for the verification link. A Surinamese ID is not stated as required for account creation; confirm at source.
Is the website in English?
No. The site is in Dutch, and formal registry documents are in Dutch.
What’s the turnaround time?
Unknown. The e-services hub lists a five-step workflow (aanvraag, beoordelen, documenten, betalen, download) without publishing a turnaround.
Is there an API?
No public API is published.
What you legally cannot do
There is no public beneficial ownership register. Automated bulk scraping of the login hub is not permitted. AML/CFT supervision sits with MOT Suriname and CBVS in statute, which is separate from the KKF register.
FATF listing status is not covered here. Check fatf-gafi.org. Suriname is a CFATF member; confirm current monitoring at the time of use.
Practical tips for foreign compliance buyers
- Follow the
kkf.srredirect. The site is atsurinamechamber.com. - An uittreksel is SRD 300 on the FAQ.
- E-services needs an account; there is no confirmed no-account search.
- Dutch is the access language.
- Gold-sector counterparties still warrant enhanced due diligence, independently of the extract fee.
Alternatives if you cannot access the KKF directly
- Paramaribo attorneys for certified extracts if the e-services hub does not suit your workflow.
- CBVS at cbvs.sr for licensed financial institutions, not company extracts.
Local data suppliers
No independent commercial credit bureau is confirmed as a Suriname substitute.
