# Colombian Company Lookup API (RUES / Confecámaras NIT)

**FactStamp** (`agents.factstamp.dev`) offers a deterministic Colombian company verification API and MCP tool backed directly by [RUES (Registro Único Empresarial y Social / Confecámaras)](https://www.rues.org.co/)—an uncontested register with zero competing listings in the Coinbase x402 Bazaar index. Every lookup returns a primary-register verdict (`verified`, `stale`, `contradicted`, or `unknown`), explicit `not_consulted` disclosure, and an offline-verifiable **Ed25519-signed receipt**. Access Colombia RUES via the **Colombia RUES Stripe Pack (A$129 AUD)** or pay-per-call x402 USDC on Base with no annual enterprise commitment.

## Verify a Colombian NIT or Company (WebMCP-Enabled)
