Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. Actors are written with capital "A". ## 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. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Poland Parliamentary PEP Scraper - Sejm Members for KYC/AML Screening Build a clean, structured **PEP (Politically Exposed Persons)** dataset of members of the **Polish Sejm** (the lower house of Parliament) for KYC/AML and enhanced due-diligence screening. For each member you get a structured record: full name, **date of birth**, party/club, electoral district, profession, term of office, and a link to the official profile (where the public asset declaration is published). Sourced directly from the **official Sejm API** - no proxy, no API key, no anti-bot to fight. Covers the **current term and all historical terms since 1991**, so you can screen against former parliamentarians too (still PEP-relevant under most AML regimes). ### Why this matters Global PEP datasets (e.g. OpenSanctions) cover national legislators **unevenly** across jurisdictions. This actor gives you a **complete, authoritative, structured Polish parliamentary PEP list** with dates of birth - the key field for confident name matching in screening, and the one most generic lists are missing. ### Quick Start Current parliament: ```json { "term": "current" } ```` Screen a specific person across all terms (current + historical): ```json { "term": "all", "nameFilter": "Tusk" } ``` ### Sample Output ```json { "isPEP": true, "pepCategory": "National legislator (member of national parliament)", "country": "PL", "source": "Sejm Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej (Polish Parliament)", "role": "Poseł", "roleEn": "Member of the Sejm (Polish Parliament)", "term": 10, "termFrom": "2023-11-13", "termCurrent": true, "active": true, "fullName": "Andrzej Adamczyk", "firstName": "Andrzej", "lastName": "Adamczyk", "dateOfBirth": "1959-01-04", "birthPlace": "Krzeszowice", "party": "PiS", "district": "Kraków", "voivodeship": "małopolskie", "profession": "ekonomista", "email": "Andrzej.Adamczyk@sejm.pl", "profileUrl": "https://www.sejm.gov.pl/Sejm10.nsf/posel.xsp?id=001&type=A", "assetDeclarationNote": "Public asset declaration (oświadczenie majątkowe) is available on the linked profile page.", "scrapedAt": "2026-06-10T08:00:00.000Z" } ``` ### Pricing Pay-per-event - you pay only for results: | Event | Price | |-------|-------| | Actor start (per run) | $0.005 | | PEP record returned | $0.004 | A full current-term pull (≈460 members) costs about **$1.85**; screening one name across all terms costs a few cents. No proxy or API-key bill - the source is an open government API. No subscription, no minimum commitment. ### Features - **Authoritative source** - the official Sejm API (`api.sejm.gov.pl`), not a scraped third-party list - **Dates of birth included** - the decisive field for confident PEP name matching - **Full history since 1991** - screen against current and former legislators - **One-name screening** - `nameFilter` returns just the person(s) you are checking - **Screening-ready schema** - `isPEP`, `pepCategory`, `country`, `source`, `role`/`roleEn` on every record - **No proxy, no key, no anti-bot** - just run it ### Related Actors Combine PEP screening with the rest of the Polish KYC/AML stack: - [Poland CRBR Beneficial Owners Scraper](https://apify.com/regdata/crbr-beneficial-owners-scraper) - ultimate beneficial owners (UBO) by NIP/KRS for KYC/AML - [Poland KRS Board Members Scraper](https://apify.com/regdata/krs-fullnames-scraper) - non-anonymized company directors and shareholders - [Poland KRS Financial Statements Scraper](https://apify.com/regdata/poland-krs-financial-scraper) - balance sheets and P\&L by NIP/KRS - [Poland KRZ Debtor Registry Scraper](https://apify.com/regdata/krz-debtor-scraper) - bankruptcy, restructuring and enforcement - [Poland REGON Scraper](https://apify.com/regdata/polish-regon-scraper) - resolve any Polish company by name, NIP, KRS or REGON ### Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | |-----------|------|----------|-------------| | `term` | string | No | `"current"` (default), a specific term number (e.g. `"9"`), or `"all"` (every term since 1991) | | `nameFilter` | string | No | Case-insensitive substring match on the full name - use to screen one person | | `activeOnly` | boolean | No | Only currently-active members. Default `false` | | `maxResults` | integer | No | Optional cap on records returned | ### Output Fields | Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | `isPEP` | Always `true` - every record is a politically exposed person | | `pepCategory` | PEP category (national legislator) | | `country` | `PL` | | `source` | Authoritative source label | | `role` / `roleEn` | `Poseł` / Member of the Sejm | | `term` / `termFrom` / `termCurrent` | Parliamentary term, its start date, and whether it is the current term | | `active` | Whether the member is currently active in the term | | `fullName` / `firstName` / `lastName` | Name fields | | `dateOfBirth` / `birthPlace` | Date and place of birth | | `party` / `district` / `voivodeship` | Club/party, electoral district, voivodeship | | `profession` / `education` | Declared profession and education | | `email` | Official Sejm email where published | | `profileUrl` | Official profile page (links to the public asset declaration) | | `scrapedAt` | Provenance timestamp | ### Use Cases - **PEP screening** - check whether a counterparty/individual is (or was) a Polish national legislator - **KYC/AML & EDD** - enrich onboarding with authoritative PEP identity data including date of birth - **Building a PEP database** - maintain your own Polish-parliament PEP list rather than paying for a black-box feed - **Due diligence & research** - map parliamentary composition by term, party and district ### Data Source & Compliance - **Source**: official Sejm API - https://api.sejm.gov.pl - **Legal basis**: data on elected public officials is public information under Polish law (and the Polish public-information act) - Only publicly published fields are collected. Residential addresses and other restricted data are not part of the public API and are **not** collected. ### Scope & Notes - Covers **Sejm** members (lower house). Senate (Senat) and Polish MEPs are not included in this version. - **Asset declarations** (oświadczenia majątkowe - cash, real estate, company stakes) are published as per-member **scanned PDFs** on the Sejm Lotus-Notes site, behind an anti-bot layer. Structured extraction of those is **out of scope for this version**; each record links the member's profile where the declaration can be retrieved manually. ### Polish Business Data Suite This actor is part of a portfolio covering the full Polish company- and compliance-intelligence stack.
