Details
The Registrar General's Department has a free company search feature which allows users to look up company names and registry numbers: http://rgd.bahamas.gov.bs:8081/netdata/db2www.pgm/findcompany.ndm/searchcomps
It can also be browsed by entering a space as the search term, though with a limit of 100 search results displayed at a time.
There are no other details provided and it is unclear how often the database is updated.
Reviewer comments
I have deemed the dataset's existence as "unsure" as the information available doesn't satisfy the minimum criteria for a companies register.
