The Register of Charities for Northern Ireland is kept by the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland and records charities registered under Northern Ireland charity law. It is the separate Northern Ireland counterpart to the England and Wales and Scottish charity registers.
Domain Rating is a dated Ahrefs snapshot of domain authority. PetroHrys Score is an independent editorial assessment of the directory’s practical business value. They are separate measurements and are never combined. Domain Rating values are dated historical Ahrefs snapshots. Domain Rating is a dated historical measurement of the shared domain, not an assessment of this individual registry page. New measurements are not collected because the Research Center does not depend on mandatory authenticated APIs. Where several registries are published on one measured domain they repeat that domain’s single dated snapshot rather than each carrying a figure of its own. Domain Rating is a third-party metric produced by their respective providers, not by PetroHrys.com. Each recorded value carries its provider and the date it was measured, and describes the domain that was measured rather than one page on it. No source has been consulted for authority score, estimated traffic and referring domains, so they are not published for any record.
Not established The overall access position has not been established from an official source. It is recorded as unknown rather than assumed to be open.
Assessment
Strengths
It is the dedicated statutory register for Northern Ireland, kept by the independent regulator of charities there.
It resolves a Northern Ireland charity to a registered number and a named regulator, which neither the England and Wales nor the Scottish register can do.
The search page is reachable publicly with no sign-in wall.
Limitations
The search results are produced by a client-side application, so the search behaviour and returned fields could not be established from the served page.
It covers Northern Ireland only, and a charity operating across the United Kingdom may need to appear on more than one register.
Registration establishes charitable status under Northern Ireland charity law, not good governance, solvency or current activity.
Submission guidance
Records are created through incorporation, registration, filing, or statutory processes.

Establishing required submission assets requires submitting a listing and observing the result. That has not been done for any directory in this dataset, so it is not published rather than estimated.

The PetroHrys Score is a first-party editorial assessment, not a third-party
authority metric. It is the weighted sum of the ten factors above, divided by ten, so the number
on this page is reproducible from the values shown. Each factor is scored from 0 to 10 by a human reviewer and weighted as shown. The definitions describe what was weighed, not a rubric: no threshold or formula maps a directory onto a value, and two reviewers could reach different numbers. The score is reproducible from the factors shown on every record, but it is an editorial judgement, not a measurement.
