What it costs

Companies	This actor	Most used France company actors on the Store
1,000	$1.00	$4.00 to $80.00
10,000	$10.00	$40 to $800
100,000	$100.00	$400 to $8,000

Plus $0.001 per run. A weekly pull of 500 companies costs about $0.50 per run, or roughly $2 a month.

Why people switch

• One flat price. Compute is included, so the bill follows the number of companies and nothing else.
• Official open register. Rows come from the French government's open company search (the SIRENE base with data from the RNE register), published under the Licence Ouverte. No key, no scraping of web pages.
• Search the way you work. Look up a name, a SIREN, a SIRET or an address, or skip the text and filter by postcode, department, activity code (NAF), legal form, employee bracket, company category, status and revenue.
• Fast. A 25 company search finished in about 3 seconds in our tests. A pull of 10,000 companies took about 18 minutes.

Quick start

1. Open the actor, type a company name, press Start.
2. Or paste this input:

{ "queries": ["Renault"], "companyStatus": "active", "maxResultsPerQuery": 25, "maxItems": 50 }

3. Download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read them through the API.

To build a lead list with no name at all, use filters only:

{ "departments": ["69"], "activityCodes": ["62.01Z"], "companyStatus": "active", "maxItems": 500 }

Use it from code

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/one_dollar_store~france-company-register-sirene/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"queries": ["552081317"], "maxItems": 10}'

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("one_dollar_store/france-company-register-sirene").call(
    run_input={"queries": ["Renault"], "companyStatus": "active", "maxResultsPerQuery": 25, "maxItems": 50}
)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["siren"], item["name"], item["city"], item.get("latestRevenue"))

Use it from an AI assistant

Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other assistants can call this actor through Apify's MCP server. Add it with this server address:

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=one_dollar_store/france-company-register-sirene

Then ask, for example: "List 100 active software companies (activity code 62.01Z) in department 75 with their revenue and size."

Switching from another SIRENE or Pappers actor

Most take a search term or a SIREN and a result limit. Here they are queries (a list, so one run covers many lookups) and maxItems. The core fields are siren, siret, name, status, legalFormCode, activityCode, address, directors and latestRevenue.

Input

Field	Type	Default	What it does
queries	list of text	none	One search per line: a company name, a 9 digit SIREN, a 14 digit SIRET or an address. Leave empty to use only the filters.
postalCodes	list	none	Keep companies with an establishment (head office or another site) in these postcodes.
departments	list	none	Same, by department code such as 75, 2A or 971.
activityCodes	list	none	Main activity (NAF or APE) codes such as 62.01Z.
legalFormCodes	list	none	INSEE legal category codes such as 5710 (SAS) or 5499 (SARL).
employeeBrackets	list	none	INSEE size codes, for example 11 for 10 to 19 employees. The input page lists them all.
companyStatus	text	any	active, ceased or any.
companySize	text	any	PME, ETI or GE, as classed by INSEE.
minRevenue, maxRevenue	number	none	Keep companies whose latest published revenue is in this range (EUR). Only companies that publish accounts can match.
includeDirectors	true or false	true	Adds the directors and officers listed in the register.
includeFinances	true or false	true	Adds revenue and net result by year.
includeEstablishments	true or false	false	Adds up to 10 sites that matched your search.
maxResultsPerQuery	number	100	The most companies per search line (up to 10,000).
maxItems	number	100	Total companies for the run. Minimum 10.

Give at least one search line or one filter. Example:

{
  "queries": ["boulangerie"],
  "postalCodes": ["75011", "75012"],
  "companyStatus": "active",
  "includeEstablishments": true,
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 200,
  "maxItems": 200
}

Limits

• 10,000 companies per search. The register's search stops at 400 pages of 25. To go past that, split a search with filters (one department or one activity code at a time).
• Not every company is there. The register leaves out companies that asked not to be listed publicly (non diffusible), firms refused registration at the RCS, and the full history of predecessor and successor sites.
• Revenue and net result exist only for companies that publish their accounts. Many small firms and sole traders have none, so finances is empty for them.
• Postcode and department filters match any site of a company. The row shows the head office. Switch on includeEstablishments to see the matching sites.
• Labels are partial. The legal form label is filled in for about twenty common codes, and activity codes come with their section name, not the full NAF title.
• Order is by relevance, not by company size. A search for a famous name lists every company with that name, small ones included.
• Pace. The source allows 7 requests a second. The actor stays near 4 or 5 and waits when it is told to slow down. Big pulls run at roughly 9 companies a second.
• People. Directors are listed as the register publishes them: name, role and birth month and year.

FAQ

What is the cheapest France company data actor on Apify? This actor costs $1 per 1,000 companies with platform usage included. The most used SIRENE and France company actors on the Store charged $4.00 to $80.00 per 1,000 when we checked on 9 October 2026.

How much does it cost to get 10,000 French companies? $10, plus $0.001 for each run.

Do I pay for compute or proxy on top? No. Platform usage is included in the $1 per 1,000 price. The actor needs no proxy.

Where does the data come from? From the French government's open company search API (recherche-entreprises.api.gouv.fr), which serves the SIRENE register and the national company register (RNE). It is open data under the Licence Ouverte. No login and no key are used.

Can I look up one company by SIREN or SIRET? Yes. Put the number in queries. A SIRET search also returns the company that owns the site.

How do I get every restaurant in one city? Leave queries empty, set activityCodes to 56.10A and 56.10B, set the city's postcodes, and raise maxItems.

Is it legal? The actor reads public data only, with no login. Company records are published as open data by the French state. How you use them is up to you: follow the Licence Ouverte, the GDPR for any personal data such as director names, and the law where you live.

Is this an official French government product? No. It is an independent tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by INSEE, the French government or the data.gouv.fr team.

Do I need an Apify account? Yes. Actors run from an Apify account, and a free account is enough to start: it includes $5 of platform usage every month. You can sign up here. This is a referral link and it costs you nothing.

Is there a limit on the free plan? Yes. A run started from a free plan account delivers the first 10 results, then ends with a message and a link to the plans. Any paid plan returns everything you ask for, up to your own limit. The price per result is the same on every plan.
