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 ## Nordic Company Registry Scraper (NO + FI + SE + DK) Scrapes official company registry data from four Nordic countries in one run. Norway via Brønnøysund (BRREG), Finland via PRH open data, Sweden via allabolag.se, and Denmark via proff.dk — all consolidated into a single structured dataset. No account needed. All four sources are public, and the actor hits them with a polite query rate that keeps it off any blocklist worth caring about. ### What You Get - **Legal name and org number** — the official registered name and primary identifier from each registry - **Status** — active, bankrupt, liquidating, or closed - **Legal form** — AS (Norway), Oy (Finland), AB (Sweden), ApS (Denmark), and their variants - **Industry code + description** — NACE codes for Norway, NAICS-aligned for Finland, proprietary classification for Sweden/Denmark - **Address** — business and postal addresses, city, and postal code - **Employees** — headcount where the registry discloses it - **Revenue and profit** — annual figures in local currency (Sweden and Denmark via allabolag/proff financials; Norway and Finland don't include financials in their open API) - **Contact info** — phone, email, and website where listed - **Parent org number** — Norwegian companies that are subsidiaries report their parent's org number ### How It Works 1. You select one or more countries and provide a search term (or leave blank for Norway/Finland to get recently registered companies) 2. For Norway: queries BRREG at `data.brreg.no` — the official open API, no rate limit, 1.16M+ entities 3. For Finland: queries PRH open data at `avoindata.prh.fi` — government open data, 677K+ companies 4. For Sweden: searches allabolag.se with your query — the same JSON API used by the website, accessed with a proper Chrome TLS fingerprint 5. For Denmark: searches proff.dk with your query — the same underlying Bisnode/D&B platform as allabolag.se, identical API structure 6. Results are normalized into a unified schema and returned as a single dataset ### Sample Output ```json { "org_number": "923609016", "country": "NO", "registry_name": "BRREG", "legal_name": "EQUINOR ASA", "trade_names": "", "status": "Active", "incorporation_date": "1972-09-18", "legal_form": "Allmennaksjeselskap", "industry_code": "06.100", "industry_description": "Utvinning av råolje", "employees": 21376, "revenue": null, "profit": null, "currency": "NOK", "financials_year": "", "vat_registered": "true", "address": "Forusbeen 50, 4035 STAVANGER, STAVANGER, NO", "postal_address": "Postboks 8500, 4035 STAVANGER, STAVANGER, NO", "address_city": "STAVANGER", "address_postal_code": "4035", "address_country": "Norway", "phone": "51 99 00 00", "email": "", "website": "www.equinor.com", "parent_org_number": "", "source_url": "https://www.brreg.no/lookup?q=923609016", "scraped_at": "2026-05-06T19:37:49.617Z" } ```` ### Output Fields | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `org_number` | string | Primary registry identifier | | `country` | string | ISO code: NO, FI, SE, or DK | | `registry_name` | string | Source: BRREG, PRH, allabolag.se, or proff.dk | | `legal_name` | string | Official registered name | | `trade_names` | string | Secondary or trade names (SE/DK only) | | `status` | string | Active / Bankrupt / In liquidation / Closed | | `incorporation_date` | string | YYYY-MM-DD registration date | | `legal_form` | string | Legal form code or name | | `industry_code` | string | Primary industry classification code | | `industry_description` | string | Industry description | | `employees` | number | Employee count (NO, SE, DK) | | `revenue` | number | Annual revenue in local currency (SE, DK) | | `profit` | number | Net profit/loss (SE, DK) | | `currency` | string | NOK, EUR, SEK, or DKK | | `financials_year` | string | Year the financials relate to | | `vat_registered` | string | VAT/MVA registration status (NO only) | | `address` | string | Business address, formatted | | `postal_address` | string | Postal address if different | | `address_city` | string | City | | `address_postal_code` | string | Postal code | | `address_country` | string | Country name | | `phone` | string | Primary phone | | `email` | string | Contact email | | `website` | string | Website URL | | `parent_org_number` | string | Parent entity org number (NO only) | | `source_url` | string | Link to source registry record | | `scraped_at` | string | ISO 8601 collection timestamp | ### Input Configuration | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `countries` | array | `["NO"]` | Countries to query: NO, FI, SE, DK | | `no_search_name` | string | `"Equinor"` | Norway name search (BRREG).

A run returning 100 Norwegian companies costs $0.20. Financial data for Swedish and Danish companies is included at no extra charge — it comes from the same API call. ### 🔍 FAQ **How do I scrape Nordic company data?** Nordic Company Registry Scraper queries four open government registries and returns results in a unified schema. Select the countries you want, enter a search term, set `maxItems`, and run. **Does the actor need proxies?** Nordic Company Registry Scraper doesn't require proxies. Norway (BRREG) and Finland (PRH) are plain open JSON APIs. Sweden and Denmark use Chrome TLS fingerprinting to pass the passive Cloudflare check on allabolag.se and proff.dk — this is handled internally, no proxy configuration needed. **Why is revenue null for Norwegian and Finnish companies?** Nordic Company Registry Scraper pulls from the official open APIs for Norway (BRREG) and Finland (PRH), which don't include financial statements. Revenue and profit are available for Swedish (allabolag.se) and Danish (proff.dk) companies because those sources aggregate financial data alongside the registry record. **Can I search by industry code?** Not directly — the actor takes a company name search. For Norway and Finland, leaving the search field blank returns recently registered companies in order. For volume collection across an industry, run with a broad term and filter by `industry_code` in your downstream pipeline. **How current is the data?** BRREG (Norway) updates daily. PRH (Finland) updates weekly. allabolag.se and proff.dk reflect their own update cycles, which are continuous for registry data and annual for financials. *** ### Need More Features? Need custom fields, multi-country filters, or a different Nordic source? [File an issue](https://console.apify.com/actors/issues) or get in touch. ### Why Use Nordic Company Registry Scraper? - **Four countries, one run** — replaces five separate scrapers (allabolag, proff.no, proff.dk, BRREG manual export, PRH download) with a single actor call - **Open APIs, no login** — BRREG and PRH are fully open government data. allabolag and proff need a Chrome fingerprint, not an account, which means no credential maintenance and no rate-limit negotiations - **Unified schema** — org number, legal name, status, and address come back in the same field names regardless of country, so your downstream pipeline doesn't need country-specific logic # 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 Nordic registries to query.
