Company Registry Lookup, 7 Countries
Pricing
Pay per event
Look up a company in seven national business registers and get one row back in the same shape every time. Official government APIs, no personal data.
query
Optional
The query from your input that produced this row. Present on every row, so a run over many queries can be split back apart.
name
Optional
The company's current registered name, in the register's own spelling and alphabet.
previousNames
Optional
Former registered names, most recent first. Norway, Finland, Slovakia and Estonia publish name history. Czechia, France and Poland do not, so an empty list there means the register does not say, not that the name never changed.
country
Optional
ISO two letter code of the register this row came from, not necessarily where the company trades.
countryName
Optional
The country in English, so a buyer does not have to keep a code table.
registrationNumber
Optional
The register's own identifier. Format differs per country and is not comparable across them.
registry
Optional
Which register answered: ARES, Brreg, PRH, RNE, RPO, Ariregister or KRS/CEIDG.
registryUrl
Optional
Deep link to this company's page on the official register, for a human to verify the row.
status
Optional
Trading status collapsed to active, inactive or unknown, so one filter works across all seven countries. unknown means the register's own value was not recognised, never that the company is gone.
statusRaw
Optional
The register's own status word, kept so nothing is lost by the collapse into status.
legalForm
Optional
Legal form in words where the register publishes it. Absent on registers that publish only a code.
legalFormCode
Optional
The register's own legal form code. Country specific and not comparable across them.
incorporatedAt
Optional
Date of registration as the register reports it. Not the date the business began trading.
dissolvedAt
Optional
Only present on a dissolved company. A null is the normal case for a live company, not a missing value.
address
Optional
Full registered address as one string, joined without stray commas when parts are missing.
street
Optional
Street and number where the register separates them. Registers that publish only a single address line leave this null.
city
Optional
Town or city of the registered address.
postalCode
Optional
Postal code of the registered address, in the country's own format.
region
Optional
Region, province or county where the register publishes one.
addressCountry
Optional
Country of the registered address. Differs from country when a company is registered in one state and addressed in another.
activityCode
Optional
The register's industry classification code, usually NACE derived but not identical across countries.
activityLabel
Optional
The industry classification in words, in English where the register offers it and in the local language otherwise.
vatNumber
Optional
VAT identifier where the register publishes one. Absent does not mean the company has none. Most registers simply do not carry it.
vatRegistered
Optional
Whether the register says the company is VAT registered. Only Czechia, Norway and Poland publish this, so null elsewhere means not stated rather than not registered.
employeeCount
Optional
Headcount as the register reports it. Only Norway publishes it, so this is null on every other country.
website
Optional
Company website as the register holds it. Only Norway and Finland publish it, so this is null on every other country. Given as the register wrote it, which is often a bare host with no scheme.
registryUpdatedAt
Optional
When the register last changed this record, where it says. This is the register's freshness, not ours.
retrievedAt
Optional
When this run read the register. Always present, and the field to trust for how old the row is.
