French Accountants Directory — phones from the Ordre (no email)

Export the official French expert-comptable register — firm names, addresses, phones, accountant names, SIREN/SIRET, and the named director (gérant / président). Ready for call lists, CRM, or market research.

Email is not in this dataset. The Ordre profile is a Contacter par mail button, not a public address. Need emails? Use French Lawyers or ORIAS instead.

Stop copying annuaire.experts-comptables.org by hand. This Actor reads the public Ordre directory over plain HTTP. Run by commune, nationwide, or from profile URLs. Download JSON, CSV, or Excel.

No login. No API key.

Optional SIREN/SIRET matching uses the public French business register (gouvMatchConfidence). Comply with Ordre terms, GDPR, and professional-directory rules.

Who is this for?

You are…	Typical goal	Suggested setup
B2B supplier / SaaS selling to accounting firms	Verified firm contacts by region	By city with target communes, or Full directory for France-wide coverage
Outbound / SDR team	Phone + address for cold calling or mail	By city for a département rollout; export CSV from Dataset
CRM / data ops	SIREN, SIRET, NAF for enrichment pipelines	Any mode + Match SIREN & SIRET turned ON
Market researcher / analyst	Count and map firms nationally	Full directory with Max firms = 0 (no row cap)
Ops team refreshing an old list	Latest phones and addresses	Your URLs — paste profile links from a previous export

What you get by default: firm name, full address, phone, GPS coordinates, canonical profile URL, and full names of experts-comptables listed on the profile — typically ~100% fill on core fields in our samples. Website and social links appear when the profile publishes them (~10–20% for website on mixed communes).

When to enable SIREN matching: leave Match SIREN, SIRET & directors on (default) so each row includes the named gérant / président — that is the inbox-ready person when the Ordre only publishes a switchboard phone. Turn it off only for the fastest directory-only export. In our tests, ~80% of independent cabinets match with high confidence; network brands may share a holding SIREN — use siret for the local branch.

Which mode to pick: use By city for your first run (fast, cheap, easy to validate). Switch to Full directory when you need a national file (~22k–31k unique firms, ~30–45 min without SIREN enrichment). Use Your URLs when you already have profile links.

Quick start

First run in the Apify Console (~2 minutes)

1. Open this Actor → Input tab.
2. Mode: leave By city (default — safe for Try for free).
3. City: pick Rodez or choose Paris, Lyon, etc. from the dropdown.
4. Other city (slug): leave blank unless your commune is not listed (e.g. annecy).
5. Match SIREN & SIRET: leave unchecked for a fast preview.
6. Max firms: 50 on Try — enough to validate the dataset.
7. Click Start (or Try for free).
8. Watch Progress: in the log and the short status line (e.g. Scanning France — 34% · 120 firms saved).
9. Output → Dataset — open the View dropdown: Outreach CRM for phone + firm names (cold outreach), CRM + SIREN when register matching is on, or Accounting firms for the full default table. Export JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Export all of France

1. Mode → Full directory — all of France.
2. Max firms → 0 (no row ceiling).
3. Optional: enable Match SIREN & SIRET if you need identifiers (adds ~0.3–0.5 s per firm).
4. Start — expect ~22k–31k rows and ~30–45 minutes (longer with SIREN matching). Rows appear while the run is still going.

Refresh firms you already know

1. Mode → Your URLs — refresh known firms.
2. Paste one official profile URL per line.
3. Start — skips commune discovery; fetches only the pages you listed.

Run via API

Ready-made examples (published tasks)

Four one-click presets for the Apify Examples tab. Publish each task in Console (Tasks → Publication) after a successful cloud run — until then, the links below return 404 (expected).

Example	Best for
Export French accounting firms nationwide for CRM	National CRM file — phones and accountant names
Find expert-comptables in Paris with phone numbers	Île-de-France call list — phones, no email
Match accounting firms to SIREN and SIRET in Lyon	CRM enrichment with register IDs
Refresh expert-comptable contacts from your URL list	Update an existing spreadsheet of profile URLs

Maintainer kit: published-tasks/publication-console.md (copy-paste SEO fields for Console).

What does it extract?

Category	Fields
Identity	Firm name (name), register ID (searchId)
People	Accountant full names (accountants array)
Location	Street address, postal code, city, latitude / longitude
Contact	Phone (from JSON-LD on profile pages)
Web & social	Website, LinkedIn, Facebook — when linked on the profile
Profile extras	Spoken languages, competences — when shown in HTML
Business register (optional)	siren, siret, gouvNomComplet, gouvAdresse, gouvCodeNaf, gouvMatchScore, gouvMatchConfidence, gouvAnnuaireUrl
Links	Canonical profile URL, discovery commune slug (citySlug)
Metadata	scrapedAt; scrapeError if a row failed partially

Output shape: one row per firm record in the Dataset. Deduplication uses searchId.

Typical fill rates

Benchmark on a Rodez sample (30 firms, June 2026):

Field	Fill rate
name, streetAddress, postalCode, city, profileUrl, phone, latitude, longitude	100%
accountants (at least one name on profile)	~95%
languages	100% (Rodez — varies by commune)
website	~20%
linkedinUrl	~7%
facebookUrl	~3%
email	Not available

With Match SIREN & SIRET enabled (sample of 120 cabinets without prior SIREN):

Metric	Rate
SIREN + SIRET found	~89%
gouvMatchConfidence: high	~80%
No reliable match	~11%

Filter CRM imports with gouvMatchConfidence === "high" for the safest automatic match rate.

Three modes (JSON reference)

By city

{
  "mode": "cities",
  "cityPreset": "paris",
  "citySlugs": ["lyon"],
  "maxProfiles": 0,
  "enrichSiren": false
}

Use cityPreset in the Console, customCitySlug for unlisted communes, or citySlugs array via API for multiple cities.

Full directory

{
  "mode": "fullDirectory",
  "maxProfiles": 0,
  "maxCities": 0,
  "enrichSiren": true
}

Use maxCities: 5 (API) to cap communes during testing.

Your URLs

{
  "mode": "bulkUrls",
  "profileUrls": [
    "https://annuaire.experts-comptables.org/expert-comptable/12346-douls-associes-rodez-12000"
  ],
  "enrichSiren": true
}

---

How it works

1. Commune list (full directory only) — loads a bundled index of ~4 679 communes instantly (no network crawl). Use API flag refreshCommuneIndex: true to rebuild from the official regional index.
2. Map scan — collects firm IDs (searchId) per commune.
3. Deduplication — merges IDs before export.
4. Profile export — fetches each profile page; parses JSON-LD, accountant names, and HTML panels.
5. Optional SIREN/SIRET — matches each firm to the official business register (name + address + accountants).
6. Dataset — pushes each row immediately so you see results during long runs.

HTTP-only — no browser.

---

Input (Console vs API)

Console field	Purpose
Mode	By city / Full directory / Your URLs
City	By city — dropdown (Paris, Lyon, Rodez, …)
Other city (slug)	By city — optional override, e.g. annecy
Profile URL(s)	Your URLs — one official link per line
Match SIREN & SIRET	Optional business-register matching
Max firms	Row cap; 0 = no cap

API-only options: resume, refreshCommuneIndex, citySlugs, indexConcurrency, verboseLogs, enrichSirenDelayMs, mapConcurrency, maxConcurrency, proxyConfiguration, maxCities, maxRequestRetries, checkpointEveryCommunes.

Use profileUrl or searchId as the stable key across runs.

How much does it cost to scrape experts-comptables.org?

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing on Apify — you pay per exported firm row, not for idle compute. HTTP-only runs keep platform compute low; residential proxy is not required for typical jobs.

Event	List price (FREE tier)
Run start (apify-actor-start)	$0 (always free)
Firm with phone (firm-contact-row)	$0.002 / row
Firm + SIREN/SIRET (firm-enriched-row)	$0.004 / row
Firm without phone / errors (firm-basic-row)	$0.001 / row

Per-row rates by Apify tier (contact row / enriched row):

Tier	Contact	Enriched
FREE	$0.002	$0.004
BRONZE	$0.0018	$0.0036
SILVER	$0.0016	$0.0032
GOLD	$0.0014	$0.0028
PLATINUM	$0.0012	$0.0024
DIAMOND	$0.001	$0.002

Scenario	Rows	FREE tier total (rows only)
Try for free (Rodez, 50 firms)	50	~$0.10
Paris (city export)	~800	~$1.60
Full France (no SIREN)	~25k	~$50
Full France + SIREN	~25k	~$100

Run start is not billed — you only pay per exported row. Configure events in Apify Console → Monetization → Pay per event (checklist: docs/PPE-CONSOLE.md).

Is it legal to scrape experts-comptables.org?

This Actor accesses public pages from the official Ordre register — the same information visible to any visitor. You remain responsible for:

• GDPR and French privacy law when storing professional contact data.
• Direct marketing rules (B2B outreach requires legitimate interest and opt-out respect).

FAQ

Is this affiliated with the Ordre des experts-comptables?
No. It automates access to public directory pages.

Why is email missing?
The official profile does not publish an email. Only a Contacter par mail form. This Actor does not guess or scrape mailboxes. Use phone (near-100% fill) for outreach.

How accurate is SIREN/SIRET matching?
Independent cabinets: ~80% high confidence in our samples. Network brands (TGS, Baker Tilly, etc.) may resolve to a holding SIREN — use siret and gouvAdresse to validate the local branch. Filter on gouvMatchConfidence: "high" for automatic CRM imports.

How do I find a commune slug?
Open …/recherche/ville/paris on the directory → slug is paris.

Can I enrich an existing CSV offline?
Yes — use scripts/enrich-experts-comptables-siren.mjs in the repo for batch CSV enrichment with the same matching logic.
