France SIRENE Scraper
Scrape French company records from the official SIRENE register, by name, SIREN, postal code, department, or NAF code. Each row returns the company's identifiers, address, activity, and legal form. No API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your query is spelled correctly and that any filters, such as postal code or NAF code, are not too restrictive. Try removing filters one by one to see which one excludes all matches.
Why is my run slow?
Large result sets take time to collect. Reduce the maximum number of companies or narrow your filters to speed up the run.
Can I search by SIRET instead of SIREN?
The query field accepts SIREN numbers. If you need SIRET-level data, check whether the Actor supports it or use a dedicated SIRET scraper.
Why do some fields appear empty?
Not all companies have every field populated in the SIRENE register. Empty fields mean the data is not available for that record.
How do I export the results?
After the run finishes, go to the dataset tab in Apify and choose the export format: CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the SIRENE register? | SIRENE is the official French business register maintained by INSEE. It contains legal and administrative information on all companies and establishments registered in France. |
| Do I need an API key or token? | No. This Actor reads the public SIRENE data directly, so no authentication is required. |

| Is the data up to date? | The Actor reads the current public SIRENE data at the time of the run, so results reflect the latest available records. |
| Can I combine filters? | Yes. You can combine a name query with postal code, department, and NAF code to narrow results. |
| Does this include SIRET establishment data? | The Actor returns company-level records from SIRENE. For establishment-level SIRET data, check the input fields or consider a dedicated SIRET scraper. |
