Asia Book of Records

What Asia Book of Records does

Asia Book of Records is a private, India-headquartered organization that certifies and catalogs extraordinary achievements across Asia. Operating from Faridabad with regional offices in Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam) and Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and approximately 10 employees, the company functions as the regional tier of a global records franchise, linked to WorldKings and affiliated national organizations (India Book of Records, VietKings, Nepal, Bangladesh, USA, Russia, and Indonesia's MURI). Its offerings include a website-based verification platform, an online application portal ("Set A Record"), and an annual flipbook-format eBook compilation of certified records. The record taxonomy spans Culture & Creativity, Helping Hands, Human Story, Industry & Business, Mass Attempt, Media & Entertainment, Strange But True, Technology & Innovation, and Young Achievers.

The platform's core technology is a content-management system with category-organized browsing, a record-submission workflow, and digital publication tooling for the annual eBook. There are no disclosed proprietary algorithms, AI/ML pipelines, or API/SDK surfaces; the company explicitly reports it does not have a mobile app, SDK, or MCP. Distribution is digital-first and product-led: prospective record holders self-serve through the website, while organic social media on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram drives awareness and top-of-funnel demand. Enterprise and institutional applicants are supported via the three regional offices.

Revenue is generated through two streams: (i) one-time certification fees for processing submitted record applications, and (ii) annual eBook sales sold as a one-time/perpetual license through the website shop. Customer segmentation is hybrid and long-tailed, spanning individual record-breakers, enterprises (hospitals, schools, corporates — e.g., Ananta Institute of Medical Sciences, Tam Anh TP. Ho Chi Minh General Hospital, Cipla Respiratory, Graphic Era Institute), and event organizers/NGOs seeking third-party validation of mass-participation feats. The business is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, investors, or financial metrics.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• India Book of Records: National India-focused record verification and certification body; core strategic affiliate of Asia Book of Records and operates the same per-application certification and publication model at country level.
• VietKings: Vietnam's national record body and a strategic affiliate that performs the same certification and publication function as Asia Book of Records at country level within Vietnam.
• WorldKings: Global world-records network and co-publishing partner that publishes an overlapping annual eBook and connects regional record bodies — the closest global-network peer to Asia Book of Records.
• Nepal Book of Records: National Nepal record verification body operating the same per-application certification model as a strategic affiliate within the Asia Book of Records network.
• Limca Book of Records: India-focused record book historically associated with beverages; comparable records-publishing business serving the same Indian record-holder audience, though with declining activity in recent years.
• Bangladesh Book of Records: Bangladesh national record certification body and affiliate in the Asia Book of Records regional network, operating a similar certification + publication model.

Broad incumbents

• Guinness World Records: The global leader in record certification and the dominant authority Asia Book of Records competes against for institutional record-attempt sponsorships and consumer mindshare across Asia.

Regional players

• MURI (Museum Rekor Indonesia): Indonesian record-keeping organization that certifies records and runs a records museum; comparable business model but serves Indonesia specifically rather than the broader Asian market.

Emerging players

• Golden Book of Records: Smaller regional record-certification body operating a similar certification-and-publication model in select markets; represents the long tail of competing regional record organizations that fragment demand.
• Record Holders Republic (GWR-adjacent): Digital-first record-attempt platform that competes with established record bodies for user submissions and media coverage, illustrating the digital disruption risk to traditional book-of-records organizations.
