## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Poland Company Registry Scraper (KRS)

Official Polish company data from the National Court Register: KRS number, NIP and REGON identifiers, legal form, **share capital**, PKD activities, registered address, board composition and the company's representation rule.

**Free · No API key · Official source · Same schema across every country in this series**

### What data do you get?

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `companyName` | Registered legal name |
| `registrationNumber` | KRS number — the register's own identifier |
| `taxNumber` | VAT / tax identifier where published |
| `status` | Normalized to `active` / `inactive` / `dissolved` / `unknown` |
| `statusRaw` | The register's own wording, untranslated |
| `legalForm` | Legal form as registered |
| `incorporatedOn` / `dissolvedOn` | ISO dates |
| `address`, `city`, `postalCode` | Registered address |
| `industry`, `industryCode` | Activity classification where published |
| `employees`, `capital` | Where the register publishes them |
| `officers[]` | Directors / partners where published |
| `sourceUrl` | Link to the company's page on the register |

Country-specific fields on top of the shared schema: `regon`, `shareCount`, `representationRule`, `registerSection`, `lastEntryDate`, `court`.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `queries` | array | — | KRS numbers only (10 digits, e.g. `0000006865`). |
| `maxResultsPerQuery` | integer | `5` | For name searches, how many matching companies to return. |
| `includeRaw` | boolean | `false` | Attach the register's untouched response under `raw`. |
| `requestDelayMs` | integer | `200` | Politeness delay against a public register. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | none | Optional — the KRS API is public. |

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "0000006865",
    "0000106678"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 5
}
```

### Example output

```json
{
  "country": "PL",
  "registry": "Krajowy Rejestr Sądowy (KRS)",
  "companyName": "CD PROJEKT RED SPÓŁKA AKCYJNA",
  "registrationNumber": "0000006865",
  "taxNumber": "7342867148",
  "regon": "49270733300000",
  "status": "active",
  "statusRaw": "Wpisany do KRS",
  "legalForm": "SPÓŁKA AKCYJNA",
  "incorporatedOn": "2001-04-06",
  "address": "JAGIELLOŃSKA 74, 03-301, WARSZAWA, POLSKA",
  "industry": "DZIAŁALNOŚĆ W ZAKRESIE PROGRAMOWANIA GIER KOMPUTEROWYCH",
  "industryCode": "62.10.A",
  "capital": "99910510,00 PLN",
  "sourceUrl": "https://wyszukiwarka-krs.ms.gov.pl/?krs=0000006865"
}
```

### What can you use it for?

- **Due diligence** — share capital, board composition and the representation rule tell you who can legally bind the company.
- **Tax validation** — get NIP and REGON identifiers alongside the KRS number in one record.
- **Ownership research** — the register's own extract is authoritative for legal form and capital.

### Frequently asked questions

#### Is this Polish company registry scraper free?

The data source is free and needs no API key — you pay only for the Apify compute the run uses.

#### Do I need an API key or an account with the registry?

No. The Ministry of Justice publishes full KRS company extracts as JSON with no key.

#### Can I search by company name, or only by KRS number?

KRS number only. The Ministry of Justice API publishes no name index — find the number at wyszukiwarka-krs.ms.gov.pl first. A name query fails with a clear message rather than returning nothing.

#### How current is the data?

Every run queries the source live, so results are as current as the register itself.

#### Can I export the results to CSV, Excel or JSON?

Yes. Apify datasets export to CSV, Excel, JSON, XML and HTML, and can be pulled through the API or pushed to your own storage.

#### Can I combine this with other countries in one dataset?

Yes — that is why it exists. Every actor in this series emits the same core schema, so results from different countries concatenate into one table with no remapping.

#### Is scraping this data legal?

This actor reads a public register that the Polish authorities publish deliberately for public inspection. Company records are public by design; where a record names a person (a director, owner or partner), that is personal data and your use of it falls under GDPR or the local equivalent — handle it accordingly.

#### Why are board members' surnames partly masked?

The register itself masks them (`N**********`) under Polish privacy rules. That redaction is in the source data — it is not applied by this actor.

### Notes and limits

- **Lookup is by KRS number only.** The Ministry of Justice API publishes no name index; find the number at wyszukiwarka-krs.ms.gov.pl. A name query fails with a clear message rather than silently returning nothing.
- Both sub-registers are tried automatically — entrepreneurs (`P`) first, then associations (`S`).
- **Board members' surnames are partially masked by the register itself** (`N**********`) under Polish privacy rules. That redaction is in the source, not added here.
- Queries that match nothing are still pushed as `{ query, error }`, so a partial run is never silent.

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

KRS numbers only (10 digits, e.g. `0000006865`). The Ministry of Justice API has no name index — find the number at wyszukiwarka-krs.ms.gov.pl.

## `maxResultsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

When a query is a name rather than an exact identifier, how many matching companies to return.

## `includeRaw` (type: `boolean`):

Attach the register's untouched response under `raw`. Useful when you need a field this actor does not map.

## `requestDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Politeness delay against a public register. Raise it for large runs.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional. The KRS API is public.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "0000006865",

  "maxResultsPerQuery": 5,
  "includeRaw": false,
  "requestDelayMs": 200,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
