# Check Ecuadorian companies by RUC (with fraud flags)

**Use case:** 

A ready-to-run example: paste a list of Ecuadorian RUC numbers and get one row per company from the official SRI registry — legal name, status, economic activity, tax regime, legal representatives with their national ID, every registered branch with its address, and the SRI's own ghost-taxpayer (contribuyente fantasma) flags. Start it as it is to see two real companies, then use your own list.

## Input

```json
{
  "rucs": [
    "1790016919001",
    "0990004196001"
  ],
  "includeEstablishments": true,
  "includeTaxDebts": true,

  "maxConcurrency": 5,

## About this Actor

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/registralia/ecuador-sri-ruc-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
