Finland YTJ Company Scraper — Business ID & Registrations

Finland YTJ Company Scraper — Business ID & Registrations

Scrape any Finnish company from the official YTJ / PRH Business Information System by Business ID (Y-tunnus) — company name, Business ID, legal form, main line of business, home municipality (kotipaikka), registered languages, register status and the full Business ID history. Data comes from the Finnish Patent and Registration Office (PRH) and Tax Administration joint service (YTJ). Powered by the Neuralverge API. No API key, login or registration required, and you only pay for companies we actually find. Structured JSON — export to CSV, JSON or Excel.

Ideal for KYB / company verification, due diligence, KYC/AML, merchant and vendor onboarding, Finnish lead generation and feeding official registry data to AI agents.

✨ Why this Actor

• 💸 Pay only for the companies you get — unresolved Business IDs are skipped and never billed. Misses are free.
• 🔓 No API key, no registration — the Finnish YTJ register, structured for you.
• 🏛️ Official source, clean row — identity, line of business, register status and Business ID history, flattened into spreadsheet-ready columns and kept in full as structured JSON.
• ⚡ Real-time & AI-structured — fresh data each run and one predictable schema.

🔧 How it works

1. Provide a Finnish Business ID (Y-tunnus), e.g. 2387338-1 — or paste a full YTJ URL such as https://tietopalvelu.ytj.fi/yritys/2387338-1.
2. Run the Actor. Fetching and AI-structuring the profile happen on the Neuralverge backend.
3. Get one dataset row per company. Export to CSV, JSON or Excel, or pull it over the Apify API.

If the company can't be resolved, it's logged and skipped without charge.

Input

One company per run.

Field	Type	Notes
businessId	string	The Finnish Business ID (Y-tunnus), e.g. 2387338-1.
companyUrl	string	Optional. A full YTJ profile URL, used instead of the Business ID.
countryCode	string	Geo-routing code (advanced, default us).

{
  "businessId": "2387338-1"
}

What you'll receive

Each row includes, when available on the profile:

• Identity — company_name, business_id, company_form, main_line_of_business, registered_office, status, registration_date, languages
• Registers — registrations (register name, status, dates) with registrationsCount
• History — business_id_history (ID, change date, change type) with businessIdHistoryCount
• Meta — query, businessId, scrapedAt, the markdown summary under human, and the complete response under raw

For this source machine is null and the structured data arrives inside human as a JSON string wrapping { "markdown": ..., "extracted": {...} }. The Actor parses that, lifts the identity fields (company_name, business_id, company_form, main_line_of_business, registered_office, status, registration_date) to the top level, adds registrationsCount / businessIdHistoryCount, and keeps the full human and raw response.
