How to use location filters

The Location filter on DueDil will allow you to filter down your company search by Country, Registered Address and Trading Address.

Within the Address search, you can use a range of region types that are outlined below:

NUTS Codes:
NUTS codes in the UK are broken down into 3 levels (NUTS 1, NUTS 2 and NUTS 3). These are representative of subdivisions for statistical purposes.

• NUTS 1 - UK divided into 12 regions 
  To search by NUTS 1 on DueDil, you can use the regional names: Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, North East, North West, Yorkshire and The Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West.

• NUTS 2 - UK divided into 40 regions
  If you wish to search by NUTS 2 on DueDil you will need to use the name of the area the code describes rather than the code itself. For example, for UKC1 you would need to type in Tees Valley and Durham.

• NUTS 3 - UK divided into 174 regions 
  Similarly, if you wish to search by NUTS 3 on DueDil you will need to use the name of the area the code describes rather than the code itself. For example, for UKD11 you would need to type in West Cumbria.
