Each status used in Israel, in English, with the standard status the Prometiam API returns and what it means for doing business with the company.
Every register words its company states differently. This guide lists the status values used in Israel, what each means in English, and the standard status the Prometiam API returns for it, so the same question (is this company still alive, in trouble or gone?) has the same answer across countries. The register’s own value stays available as local_status.
Coverage and limits for Israel: company records only (no officers, no registry-compliance signal, no activity code, no share capital, no VAT number, no insolvency notices); Israeli and registered foreign companies only (company numbers starting 51, 52 or 56), partnerships, cooperative societies, non-profit associations and sole traders are never served; liquidation, receivership, restructuring and insolvency proceedings show in the company status. Contains information from the Israeli Corporations Authority, Ministry of Justice, via data.gov.il (used under the data.gov.il terms of use). Adapted by Prometiam; not an official register extract.

active): The register shows no dissolution, insolvency or removal. That is the normal state, but not a guarantee of solvency or good standing: check filings and payment behaviour as your policy requires.active_strike_off_pending): The register has started to remove the company, usually for unfiled accounts or returns. It can still trade and can often avoid removal by putting its filings right. Treat it as a compliance warning and ask the company to explain before you extend credit or onboard it.in_restructuring): A court-supervised rescue is open while the company keeps trading. Existing creditors are usually bound or held back by the plan, so agree payment terms in advance and check which creditors the plan covers.in_receivership): A receiver controls specific assets, usually for a secured lender. The company may still trade, but the secured assets are not available to other creditors.insolvent): A formal insolvency proceeding is open. Do not extend new credit, find out who the appointed administrator or trustee is, and file any claim with them.in_liquidation): The company is being wound up and no longer trades normally. Stop new credit, file any claim, and ask who the liquidator is.in_compulsory_liquidation): The company is wound up by order of a court or the register for non-compliance, not because of insolvency. Treat it as winding up: no new business, and file claims with the liquidator.deregistered): Removed from the register: the legal person no longer exists (in the US: dissolved, revoked, withdrawn or no longer listed in that state). It cannot sign, be sued or be paid, so invoice a successor or the former owners and check whether it merged. Some registers can restore or reinstate an entity, so check before you treat it as final.merged): Merged into another company, which takes over its rights and obligations. Find the successor and deal with it.Israel’s status comes from the Corporations Authority’s status codes and sub-statuses: strike-off, rehabilitation, receivership, voluntary and court liquidation and open insolvency proceedings each have a state, and a company that leaves the file is returned as deregistered. There are no insolvency notices.

status is the same list in every country; local_status is the register’s own value. Use one or the other, not both. Outside Spain a status filter must be combined with a name or an identifier.
