## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## Brazil CNPJ Scraper — Company Data from Receita Federal

Look up any Brazilian company by **CNPJ** and get its full official record from Receita Federal's open registry: legal name, trade name, address, industry codes (CNAE), partners/shareholders (QSA), tax regime, share capital, and registration status. Clean structured output, fast, and priced fairly.

### Features

- 🏢 **Full company record** — legal name, trade name, HQ/branch, status & status date, opening date, company size
- 🗺️ **Complete address** — street, number, district, city (+ IBGE code), state, ZIP
- 🏭 **Industry (CNAE)** — primary and secondary activities with codes and descriptions
- 👥 **Partners & shareholders (QSA)** — names, roles, entry dates
- 💰 **Financials & tax** — share capital, Simples Nacional / MEI status, tax regime
- 📞 **Contact** — phone and email where available
- ⚡ **Batch & reliable** — look up thousands of CNPJs per run, with automatic retries and a backup data source
- 🧹 **Clean output** — normalized, English-labelled fields with ISO dates (optionally include the full raw record)

### Input

```json
{
  "cnpjs": ["00.000.000/0001-91", "33000167000101"],
  "includeRaw": false
}
````

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `cnpjs` | List of CNPJs — any format (with or without punctuation) |
| `includeRaw` | Also include the full raw Receita Federal record |

### Output

Each company is one dataset item:

```json
{
  "type": "company",
  "cnpj": "00000000000191",
  "cnpjFormatted": "00.000.000/0001-91",
  "companyName": "BANCO DO BRASIL SA",
  "tradeName": "DIRECAO GERAL",
  "status": "ATIVA",
  "openingDate": "1966-08-01",
  "companySize": "DEMAIS",
  "shareCapital": 120000000000,
  "mainActivity": { "code": "6422100", "description": "Bancos múltiplos, com carteira comercial" },
  "address": { "city": "BRASILIA", "state": "DF", "zip": "70073901" },
  "partners": [ { "name": "…", "role": "Diretor", "since": "…" } ],
  "partnerCount": 42
}
```

### Common use cases

- **KYC / KYB & compliance** — verify companies and their shareholders
- **Lead generation & enrichment** — enrich CRM records with official company data
- **Market & competitor research** — analyze companies by industry (CNAE), region, or size
- **Due diligence** — check registration status and ownership structure

### Notes

Data comes from Receita Federal's public open registry (via the free minhareceita.org mirror, refreshed monthly from the official bulk data). Only public data is returned. Invalid CNPJs are reported with `found: false`.

# Actor input Schema

## `cnpjs` (type: `array`):

List of CNPJs to look up. Any format works — with or without dots/slash/dash (e.g. "00.000.000/0001-91" or "00000000000191").

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

Also include the full raw Receita Federal record (all original Portuguese fields) alongside the clean structured output.

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

Optional. The data source is a public API that works without a proxy; enable a proxy only if you scrape very large volumes and hit rate limits.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "cnpjs": [
    "00000000000191"
  ],
  "includeRaw": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "cnpjs": [
        "00000000000191"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("hipersoft/brazil-cnpj-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
