# Get registration/tax identifier fields for a country

GET https://api.letsdeel.com/rest/legal-entities/country-fields/{country_code}

Retrieve which registration and tax identifier fields a country requires before you submit a legal entity to Deel, so you can collect the right values ahead of the entity-creation call. Each field returns its name, kind (`registration_id`/`tax_id`), an optional validation regex, and a requirement level (`mandatory`/`optional`/`bypass`).

 **Token scopes**: `legal-entity:read`
