What it does

The actor looks up Icelandic companies on the official company registry (fyrirtækjaskrá) by name or kennitala, opens each company's detail page, and writes one normalized record per company to the run's dataset. Each record carries the company identity (kennitala, name, status, legal form), registered and postal address, municipality, ISAT activity codes, VAT (VSK) number and registration date, directors, disclosed beneficial owners (with birth year/month, residence, citizenship, ownership share and control type) and the complete annual-accounts filing history. It reads only publicly available registry data (no account or key required).

Optional add-ons find a public business contact email and name for each company, and use AI to produce a KYB summary and due-diligence risk flags.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It searches the registry for Icelandair and Marel and returns up to 2 full company records.

{
  "companyNames": ["Icelandair", "Marel"],
  "maxCompanies": 2
}

You can also fetch companies directly by kennitalaNumbers (10-digit ID). At least one of companyNames or kennitalaNumbers is required.

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~iceland-companies-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"companyNames":["Marel"],"maxCompanies":10}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~iceland-companies-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"kennitalaNumbers":["4612023490"]}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/iceland-companies-scraper \
  --input '{"companyNames":["Icelandair"],"withCompanySummary":true}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per company record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• Paid add-ons. Contact enrichment and the AI add-ons (ai_company_summary, ai_risk_flags) charge separate events only when they produce output, and are disabled or capped for free plans.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 25 company records per run, and contact enrichment is capped at 3 results. Upgrade for more.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned an error item asking for input. Why? You must provide at least one of companyNames or kennitalaNumbers. That error item is not charged.

What are beneficial owners here? The ultimate individuals who own or control the company (raunverulegir eigendur), as disclosed to the registry, with birth year/month, residence, citizenship, ownership share and control type. High-value KYB/AML data.

Why is ownershipPercent a dash? The registry publishes a control type without a numeric share for some owners; missing source values are returned as recorded, never invented.

Can I get financial figures? This actor returns the annual-accounts filing history (which years were filed and when), not the figures themselves. For structured financials use a dedicated financials scraper where available.

Is this an official government tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with Skatturinn or the Icelandic government. It reads only data that is publicly available on the registry. Use it in accordance with the source's terms.
