The Global Legal Entity Identifier System was created after the 2008 financial crisis to give regulators a uniform way to identify counterparties across borders and asset classes. Today an LEI is required to report derivative trades under MiFID II in Europe, Dodd-Frank in the US, EMIR Refit, and reporting frameworks across APAC including MAS in Singapore, OJK in Indonesia, BNM in Malaysia, and SBV in Vietnam.
LEIs are valid for one year and must be renewed annually so the entity data stays current. The renewal is administrative — the LEI code itself never changes. Most SEA-jurisdiction renewals through Emerhub clear in around 4 working hours after payment.
Frequently asked.
What is a Legal Entity Identifier?
A 20-character ISO 17442 code that identifies a legally distinct entity in financial transactions worldwide. Required by regulators for derivative reporting, securities, and cross-border KYC under MiFID II, EMIR, Dodd-Frank, and similar frameworks.
Who needs one?
Any company that trades derivatives, issues securities, or transacts cross-border in regulated capital markets. In Singapore (MAS), Indonesia (OJK), and Malaysia (BNM) an LEI is required to report reportable transactions.
Is the lookup free?
Yes. Searching any LEI in the global GLEIF register through this tool is free, with no signup required.
How long does registration take?
Most LEIs are issued within 4 working hours of payment clearing. Some markets (Cambodia, Vietnam) may take longer where additional validation is required.
How do renewals work?
LEIs are valid for one year. We email reminders at T-60, T-30, and T-7 days before expiry. Renew through Emerhub to keep your LEI on local-currency payment rails and skip international card fees.
What is GLEIF?
The Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation. It maintains the canonical register that Local Operating Units (LOUs) issue LEIs into. We synchronise with GLEIF daily so our data matches the live register.
