Spain Registro Público Concursal Search (Insolvency)

Search Spain's official public insolvency register - the Registro Público Concursal (publicidadconcursal.es) - by debtor name or NIF and get clean, structured JSON: each matching party with its role in a concursal publication - debtor (deudor), disqualified (inhabilitado), or insolvency administrator (administrador concursal). No API key.

A concursal publication is a core negative signal in Spanish B2B: it means a company or person is (or was) in an insolvency proceeding. Screening a counterparty against the Registro Público Concursal is essential for credit risk, KYB / KYC, supplier and customer onboarding, and debtor monitoring.

Why this actor

The register's search is gated by a rotation CAPTCHA behind a Cloudflare-fronted portal, so there's no simple way to query it programmatically. This actor drives the official search, solves the challenge for you, and returns each matching party with its concursal role parsed out - so you can screen a name in one API call.

No key, no setup

The challenge-solving and browser run on our infrastructure and are included in the price. No API key, no CAPTCHA, no proxy to configure. Just send a name or NIF.

Pairs with our company & UBO actors (the source→screen flow)

This actor is the debtor / insolvency check half of a KYB workflow. Chain it with an identity / UBO source:

• Slovakia RPVS Beneficial Owners / Poland CRBR Beneficial Owners - source the owners and companies.
• This actor - screen those Spanish companies and people against the insolvency register.

The same pattern powers the suite: Poland KRZ, Germany Insolvency and Czech ISIR are the sibling debtor screens. Source the party, then check the party.

Quick Start

Look up a debtor by name:

{
  "name": "Abengoa"
}

Look up by identifier (NIF/CIF):

{
  "searchMode": "byNif",
  "nif": ["A91185595"]
}

Monitor a watchlist (each name is one search):

{
  "watchlist": ["Abengoa", "Codere", "Duro Felguera"]
}

Input

Field	Type	Description
searchMode	string	byName (default) or byNif.

watchlist	array	A list of names to check in one run. Overrides name.
nif	array	One or more identifiers (used in byNif mode).
identifierType	string	NIF / CIF / DNI / NIE.

Output

One dataset item per matching party:

{
  "name": "ABENGOA BIOENERGÍA NUEVAS TECNOLOGÍAS. S.A.",
  "documentId": "A91185595",
  "documentType": "company (NIF/CIF)",
  "isDebtor": true,
  "isDisqualified": false,
  "isInsolvencyAdministrator": false,
  "matchedQuery": "Abengoa",
  "jurisdiction": "ES",
  "source": "Registro Público Concursal (publicidadconcursal.es)",
  "sourceUrl": "https://www.publicidadconcursal.es/consulta-publicidad-concursal-new",
  "retrievedAt": "2026-07-02T00:00:00.000Z"
}

The three role flags come from the register's own columns: isDebtor (Deudor), isDisqualified (Inhabilitado), isInsolvencyAdministrator (Administrador concursal).

Common use cases

• Credit risk & onboarding - before extending terms, check whether a customer or supplier appears in the insolvency register as a debtor.
• KYB / KYC - screen a counterparty (or the owners/UBOs surfaced by our registry actors) against the Spanish concursal register.
• Debtor & portfolio monitoring - run a watchlist on a schedule for new insolvency appearances.
• Disqualification / administrator checks - see whether a person is disqualified or acting as an insolvency administrator.

Data source & compliance

• Source: the official Registro Público Concursal (publicidadconcursal.es), the Spanish public insolvency-publicity register. Every record is stamped with its source URL and retrieval timestamp.
• Public records. The register is public and open; this actor reads the public search and logs in to nothing.
• Query-driven - it looks up the names / identifiers you ask for, not a bulk copy of the register.
• Use the data lawfully (KYB, credit risk, due diligence, B2B) and gently.

Notes

• Each search solves one challenge; a watchlist of N names runs N searches.
• The register paginates results; the actor expands the table to export up to maxResults matches per query.
• The free Apify plan allows a small number of searches; upgrade to a paid plan for full, uncapped use.
