Belgium BCE/KBO · Company Registry Enrich

Paste Belgian enterprise numbers (or a company name) and get CRM-ready company rows from the official public BCE/KBO register: directors, NACE, VAT, address, phone and website — with an optional crawl of the company site for public email, phone and socials.

No login. No API key. No account on the register.

Sister Actor to French Companies · Search & SIREN Enrich — same dual-mode workflow for Belgium.

Who is this for?

You are…	Typical goal	Suggested setup
B2B SDR / AE selling into Belgium	Named directors + phone/web before outreach	Enterprise numbers from CRM / VAT · website enrich OFF first
Compliance / KYB analyst	Official status, legal form, VAT flag	Enrich IDs · Compliance dataset view · enrich OFF
Lead-gen / data agency	Name → company list	Name search (optional Advanced postal narrow for common names)
RevOps / enrichment pipeline	Stable BCE/KBO + BE VAT columns	Bulk VAT list · maxResults = 0
Outbound needing inbox / socials	Fill gaps when CBE has no email	Same list · Enrich website contacts = Yes ($9.99 / 1k)

What you get by default (website enrich OFF): one row per unique enterprise — identity, status, legal form, registered address, phone/email/website when published in CBE, directors, primary NACE (VAT 2025), characteristics, KBO URL.

When to enable website enrichment: turn Yes only if the register lists a website and you need public email / phone / socials from that site (bounded crawl, up to 3 pages). Costs more per row — leave No for KYB / register-only exports.

How to use

1. Open the Actor in Apify Console.
2. Keep Mode = Enterprise numbers with sample 0202239951 (Proximus), or paste your list / switch to Name search.
3. Leave Enrich contacts from company website = No for a first run.
4. Click Start. Export JSON / CSV / Excel (views: Overview, Outreach / CRM, Compliance).

Max companies = 0 → no cap (Free plan still capped at 100 rows / run).

How much does it cost?

HTTP-only public register (default 512 MB). Enrichment runs with bounded concurrency (about 4 parallel lookups, polite pacing) so bulk lists finish faster without flooding the register. Optional website crawl adds a few GETs per company — no residential proxy required.

Pay-per-event (Store study 2026-08-17 vs BE comps: regdata Free $8 / 1k, neuralverge ~$5 / 1k, website-only qualifyops $4 / 1k, Maps place→enriched uplift +$3):

Is it legal to use the BCE/KBO public search?

This Actor reads the official public CBE search (kbopub.economie.fgov.be) — the same register businesses and citizens can open in a browser. No login, no private API key. Optional website enrichment only collects publicly linked emails, phones and social URLs from the company site. As with any personal / business data, ensure your use complies with GDPR and Belgian marketing rules (legitimate interest, B2B outreach, opt-out).
