How to find out who owns a company in Alaska
Alaska does something no other state does: it tells you what percentage of the company each person owns.
Short answer: Search the entity through the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing. Alaska requires officials to be listed with their percentage of ownership, so the public record tells you not just who is involved but how much of the company they hold.
Ownership percentages are the whole story here
Alaska records can disclose officials and ownership interests, including reportable interests of five percent or more. Other states also collect some ownership information, so this is not unique to Alaska. Read the entity type, role, percentage and filing date before inferring control.
If you work anywhere else in the country, it’s worth looking at an Alaska record once just to see what a complete registry entry actually looks like.
How to search
- Open the Division of Corporations entity search.
- Search by entity name or entity number.
- Open the record for registered agent, officials and their percentages.
- Check the biennial report for the current version.
Small volume, high quality
Alaska produces among the lowest formation volume in the country, so as a standalone territory it rarely justifies attention. What it does justify is qualification effort — the records are complete enough that you can decide who to approach before spending anything.
