Frequently Asked Questions

Which taxpayers does this cover?
It covers any taxpayer registered with Ecuador's SRI, including both companies (sociedades) and natural persons (personas naturales), active or inactive. You look them up by their 13-digit RUC number.

How many records can I get in one run?
You get one record per RUC you supply, and you can supply as many as you like. A single large company can also expand into hundreds of establishments, since some chains register hundreds of branches across the country.

What happens if a RUC does not exist?
The scraper returns a clear record with an error note saying the RUC was not found in the SRI registry, so a missing match is itself a usable signal rather than a silent gap.

Can I get a company's branches and addresses?
Yes. Turn on Include Establishments and each record gains an establishments array listing every matriz and sucursal with its commercial name, full address, status and head-office flag.

Do I need a proxy to run this?
No. The SRI public endpoints respond from standard datacenter connections, so runs work out of the box. An optional Ecuador residential proxy toggle is available only if you ever need it.
