## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## EU EMAS Registration Records — Eco-Management

**Keyless. Pay per record. Every EMAS-registered organisation and site in Europe, as one clean table.**

This actor turns the **European Commission EMAS** (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme) register into clean, per-registration records — the official list of organisations and sites certified under the EU's premium environmental-management scheme. Each run reads the Commission's keyless data-query API and delivers one row per registration: the registration number, the organisation, the country and locality, the number of employees and sites, the site name and location, the NACE activity code, and the registration expiry. Organisation / site certification grain, structured for engineering use, under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence, with a **hard person-gate: verifier names, contact emails, contact persons, street addresses, and narrative fields are structurally omitted at field selection and never emitted.**

### What this is, in one paragraph

EMAS is the EU's voluntary eco-management and audit scheme; organisations that meet its requirements are registered, and the Commission publishes the register. This actor reads that register and flattens each registration into a single analysis-ready record: the registration number, the organisation name, the registration country, city, postal code, and website, the registration expiry date, the number of employees and sites, and — per site — the site name, country, city, postal code, website, employee count, and NACE activity code. It is the certified-organisation layer of EU environmental management. Values are exactly as published. You are billed only for records actually delivered.

### Who buys this and for what job

- **ESG, sustainability, and procurement teams** identifying EMAS-certified organisations and sites for supplier screening and green-procurement shortlists.
- **Environmental-consulting and benchmarking products** mapping EMAS adoption by country, sector (NACE), and organisation size.
- **Researchers and policy analysts** studying the uptake and distribution of EMAS across the EU.
- **Data engineers** who want the EMAS register as clean rows — with the verifier and contact fields already stripped — without paging the API by hand.

### Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 — free commercial reuse

One licence rider travels on every record. European Commission EMAS data is available for reuse under the **Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)** licence per the Commission's legal notice — free to reuse, including commercially, with attribution to the European Commission. That attribution travels on every record. One honest caveat rides too: registration status and dates are as published, not a substitute for the live EMAS register.

### Hard person-gate — organisation/site certification attributes only

The source record carries fields that identify people: contact **emails** (`registration_email`, `site_email`) and the environmental **verifier** — often a named individual (e.g. an accreditation code followed by a person's name). This actor emits **none** of them. Those fields are not in the field-selection list at all — they are never read into the record — and a person-key guard runs on every record as a backstop. Street addresses and narrative fields are likewise omitted; only the organisation and site **certification attributes** (identity, locality, size, activity code, dates, website) are kept. The acceptance suite feeds a record whose email and verifier fields carry a real address and a real person's name and asserts that neither the key nor the value can ever appear in output.

  "disclaimer": "EMAS organisation/site certification records ... verifier names, contact emails ... omitted ...",
  "observed_at": "2026-08-22T00:00:00Z"
}
```

An unbilled `RUN_RECEIPT` records the robots check, the filters, rows seen and delivered, and whether charged equals delivered.

### Field reference

Each record is one registration. Identity: `record_id` / `registration_number` and `organisation_name`. Organisation location and size: `registration_country`, `registration_city`, `registration_postal_code`, `registration_website`, `number_of_employees`, and `number_of_sites`. Registration: `expiration_date`. Site: `site_name`, `site_country`, `site_city`, `site_postal_code`, `site_website`, `site_number_of_employees`, and `site_naces` (activity code). Provenance: `source`, `source_url`, `licence`, `attribution`, `disclaimer`, and `observed_at`. Not present by design: verifier names, contact emails, contact persons, street addresses, and narrative fields.

### How a run works

A run first re-reads the source host's robots posture from your runtime — the Commission's environmental data-query host — and stops at the door if a Disallow ever covers it. It then pages the EMAS registrations endpoint, applies your optional country and organisation filters, and flattens each registration to one record — reading **only** the organisation and site certification fields, never an email, verifier, or contact person — delivered **before** it is charged, so a blocked or empty run costs you nothing. The actor stops at your `maxRecords` ceiling and records `charge_equals_delivered` in the receipt.

### Coverage and scope

The register holds on the order of **20,000+ EMAS registrations** across the EU and EEA. Because each record carries the `registration_country` and `site_naces`, segmenting by country or sector is a single filter, and the size fields support cohorting by organisation scale. Pull one country to build a national EMAS map, or the whole register to seed a certified-organisation table.

### Cost guidance

One `registration_record` per delivered registration: cost = registrations delivered × your plan's per-record price. Scope with `countryContains` or `organisationContains` to keep runs bounded. The whole register is ~20,000 registrations; 1,000 registrations is **$50** (Free) / **$33.50** (Gold).

### Honest limitations

- **As published.** Registration attributes, dates, and status are exactly as the Commission publishes them; this actor reformats, it does not verify or certify.
- **Not the live register.** For a certification-status decision, consult the live EMAS register.
- **Certification attributes only.** Verifier names, contact emails, contact persons, street addresses, and narrative fields are excluded by design.
- **No person data** of any kind.

### Differentiation

It is distinct from the fleet's sanctions, company-status, and industrial-emissions cells: this is the **EMAS eco-management certification register** at organisation/site grain, with the verifier and contact fields provably stripped. It answers "which organisations and sites hold EMAS certification, where, and in what sector" — a green-credential signal, not a company register or an emissions record.
