France New Companies – Fresh B2B Leads from BODACC

Get companies that were just registered in France – SAS, SARL, SA and more – from the official BODACC register of company announcements, published every day. Each company comes with its SIREN number, legal form in English, share capital, declared activity, head-office address and – when available – its official industry code (NAF) with the English NACE name and employee band.

No French language skills, no API key, no scraping.

What you get

• ~500 new French companies per day, newest first (legal entities only)
• Filters: département (e.g. 75 Paris, 69 Rhône, 13 Bouches-du-Rhône), region, activity keywords in English or French (common English words such as software, consulting, restaurant are expanded to their French equivalents), publication date
• Industry in English: NAF code mapped to the EU NACE Rev. 2 class name (e.g. 62.01Z → Computer programming activities)
• Legal form in English (SAS → simplified joint-stock company, SARL → limited liability company…)
• Share capital (EUR), registration date and activity start date
• Property-holding companies (SCI), about a third of all new registrations, are excluded by default
• Link to the official BODACC announcement on every row

Typical uses

• Sell to new French businesses: banking, accounting, insurance, payroll, web and marketing services, office equipment
• Local prospecting: new software companies in Paris this week, new restaurants in Lyon
• Market monitoring: new companies by industry and region
• AI agents: call it as a tool through the Apify MCP server ("new consulting firms in Île-de-France this month")

Pricing

$0.004 per company returned ($4 per 1,000). No start fee. You only pay for results you receive; set maxResults to cap your spend.

Data notes

• Legal entities only. Announcements for sole traders (individual persons) are skipped, and the names of directors or managers are never returned.
• Industry code timing: very new companies sometimes do not have their NAF code in the Sirene index yet (about a third on the day of publication). For those, nafCode/industry are empty but the declared activity (activityFr) is always present.
• Address: the registered head office as published in the announcement.
• Dates: publishedOn is the BODACC publication date; registeredOn is the trade-register date when stated.
• Typical run time: about 20–60 seconds for 100 companies (industry lookup included).

Data sources & license

• API Recherche d'entreprises (French government, api.gouv.fr) – NAF code and employee band from the INSEE Sirene register. Licence Ouverte 2.0.
• NACE Rev. 2 English class names: Eurostat classification (reuse with acknowledgement).

FAQ

Why are some industries empty? The company is so new that the national Sirene index has not assigned or published its NAF code yet. Run again a few days later or use activityFr.

Can I include property companies (SCI)? Yes – set excludeRealEstateCompanies to false.

How far back can I go? Up to 365 days of announcements.
