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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Eastern Europe Company Registry Scraper Pull official company-registry data from Poland (KRS), Czech Republic (ARES), and Slovakia (ORSR) in one unified output. Useful for EU sanctions screening, KYC, M&A research, and pan-European B2B enrichment. All three sources are open public registries — no captcha, no proxy, no auth. ### What You Get A single normalized record per company, regardless of source country: - `registry_id` — KRS number (PL), IČO (CZ), or IČO (SK) - `country` — `PL` / `CZ` / `SK` - `legal_name`, `legal_form`, `status`, `incorporation_date` - `nip_vat` — tax ID (NIP for PL, DIČ for CZ) - `regon_id` — REGON statistical number (PL) - `address`, `address_city`, `address_postal_code`, `address_country` - `industry_codes`, `industries` — NACE / PKD / OKEČ classifications - `capital`, `currency` — registered share capital - `board_members` — statutory body / management - `partners` — shareholders / partners (where published) - `last_update_date`, `source_url`, `scraped_at` ### How To Use **Pick which countries to query** in the `Countries` field, then provide country-specific input: #### Poland (KRS) The Polish public registry exposes a **lookup-by-KRS-number** API only — there is no public name-search endpoint. Provide a list of 10-digit KRS numbers in `pl_krs_numbers`. You can find KRS numbers at https://wyszukiwarka-krs.ms.gov.pl/. - `pl_krs_register` — `P` = entrepreneurs/companies (default), `S` = associations & foundations - `pl_krs_full_extract` — fetch the full historical extract instead of just the current state. Slower and much larger response per company. #### Czech Republic (ARES) ARES supports both **name search** and **direct IČO lookup**. Use either or both: - `cz_search_name` — partial name match (Czech diacritics supported) - `cz_ico_numbers` — list of 8-digit IČO numbers for direct lookup #### Slovakia (ORSR) Slovak ORSR supports **name search** only: - `sk_search_name` — partial name match (Slovak diacritics supported) #### Global - `maxItems` — caps total records across all countries ### What's Not Covered (Yet) This actor covers the three **open**, captcha-free, non-geofenced registries. Three other Eastern European countries from the original brief require dedicated actors with country-specific proxies and captcha solving: - **Romania (ONRC)** — geofenced + captcha on search portal - **Hungary (e-cégjegyzék)** — SPA with strict referrer enforcement - **Ukraine (USR)** — geofenced + Cyrillic encoding + heavy login wall Those are tracked as separate actors. Contact us if you need them prioritized. ### Pricing Pay-Per-Event: - $0.10 per actor start - $0.001 per company record A typical lookup of 50 companies costs about $0.15. ### Limitations - **Polish KRS personal data** is masked with asterisks (`J**** K*******`) by the Ministry of Justice for privacy reasons. The role and structure are preserved; only the personal name is redacted. - **No real-time monitoring** — each run is a snapshot at request time. Re-run the actor to pick up changes. - **Slovak ORSR detail pages** are served in `windows-1250` encoding (legacy ASP) — the actor decodes them transparently, but expect occasional special characters to differ from the canonical Latin-2 form. # Actor input Schema ## `sp_intended_usage` (type: `string`): Please describe how you plan to use the data extracted by this crawler. ## `sp_improvement_suggestions` (type: `string`): Provide any feedback or suggestions for improvements. ## `sp_contact` (type: `string`): Provide your email address so we can get in touch with you. ## `countries` (type: `array`): Which country registries to query. PL = Poland (KRS lookup-by-number), CZ = Czech Republic (ARES name search), SK = Slovakia (ORSR name search). ## `pl_krs_numbers` (type: `array`): List of 10-digit KRS numbers to enrich (e.g. '0000010681' for Orange Polska). Poland's public API supports lookup-by-number only — no name search. Get KRS numbers from https://wyszukiwarka-krs.ms.gov.pl/. ## `pl_krs_register` (type: `string`): Which KRS register to query: P = entrepreneurs (companies, default), S = associations & foundations. ## `pl_krs_full_extract` (type: `boolean`): If true, fetches the full historical extract (Pełny Odpis) instead of just the current state (Aktualny Odpis). Slower and ~10x larger response per company. ## `cz_search_name` (type: `string`): Company name (or part of it) to search in ARES. Supports Czech diacritics (e.g. 'Škoda', 'ČEZ'). Leave empty to skip CZ name search. ## `cz_ico_numbers` (type: `array`): List of 8-digit IČO numbers to enrich directly. Combined with cz_search_name (both run if both provided). ## `sk_search_name` (type: `string`): Company name (or part of it) to search in ORSR. Supports Slovak diacritics. Leave empty to skip SK search. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum total company records to return across all countries. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. None of the three registries require proxies. ## Actor input object example ```json { "sp_intended_usage": "Describe your intended use...", "sp_improvement_suggestions": "Share your suggestions here...", "sp_contact": "Share your email here...", "countries": [ "CZ" ], "pl_krs_numbers": [], "pl_krs_register": "P", "pl_krs_full_extract": false, "cz_search_name": "Škoda", "cz_ico_numbers": [], "sk_search_name": "", "maxItems": 15, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ```` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
