Netherlands Company Registry Scraper — KVK, Verified

You paste a Dutch company name or KVK number. You get the real registry record — legal name, status, legal form, and address — with a stable KVK number and the source behind every field.

Chosen deliberately, not by default

This niche's registry data never breaks to the next anti-bot change — it's public government data with an open API, not a scraped page. The market slot itself was chosen after measuring seven jurisdictions: the Netherlands had real demand (comparable to the UK's Companies House niche) with no single dominant competitor.

5 advantages

1. One bad name never kills your batch.
2. Never billed on a failed lookup.
3. Exact-match discipline. A name search only returns a company when the name matches exactly — never "the first result" on an ambiguous query.
4. Honest about scope. Officer records and filing history are not included — documented plainly rather than a promised field that's empty.
5. Hard cost cap you control. Set maxTotalChargeUsd.

Output

  "company_number": "27312152",

  "status": "ok"
}

Pricing

Pay per event, base FREE-tier price: $0.012 per company verified and delivered. Paid Store plans pay less on every event — the largest plans pay $0.00275; the Pricing tab on this Actor's Store page is always the authority. No event is ever charged on an item that returns an error — a batch of 200 with one bad input bills 199.

Use it from an AI agent (MCP and x402)

Connect Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client to Apify's MCP server at https://mcp.apify.com and add this Actor, om_kh/netherlands-company-registry-scraper, as a tool — the agent passes the same JSON as the run input and gets the dataset back.

AI agents that pay with x402 can run it too, without an Apify account: the Actor charges only per result delivered, so an agent pays exactly for what it gets.

Use it from code (API)

Every Apify Actor is an API. Start a run and read the results with one call.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("om_kh/netherlands-company-registry-scraper").call(run_input={"companyNames": ["ASML"], "includeOfficers": False, "includeFilings": False})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('om_kh/netherlands-company-registry-scraper').call({
    "companyNames": [
        "ASML"
    ],
    "includeOfficers": false,
    "includeFilings": false
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

One HTTP call (cURL) — runs the Actor and returns the dataset in the same response:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/om_kh~netherlands-company-registry-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"companyNames": ["ASML"], "includeOfficers": false, "includeFilings": false}'
