France Company Scraper (SIRENE): SIREN, SIRET & NAF Leads

France Company Scraper (SIRENE): French companies by NAF code, department, size and revenue

Export French company lists from the official SIRENE register (INSEE + RNE open data, via the government's Annuaire des Entreprises / API Recherche d'entreprises). Filter by NAF/APE activity code, department, postal code, region, employee band, legal form (SAS, SARL...), revenue and labels (RGE, Qualiopi, bio, ESS). Every row has SIREN, head-office SIRET, intra-EU VAT number (computed from the SIREN), head-office address and employee band, plus GPS coordinates (99% of rows) and latest turnover and net income where the company has filed public accounts (about 70% of rows). No API key, no login (in our test runs: 25 rows in about 4 s, 500 rows in about a minute). $2 per 1,000 companies.

A low-cost alternative to Pappers, Societe.com or manual INSEE exports for B2B prospecting, market sizing and CRM enrichment in France.

What this SIRENE scraper does (and doesn't)

Price	$2 per 1,000 companies, pay per result, no subscription
Filters	NAF/APE code or section, department, postal code, region, PME/ETI/GE category, employee band, legal form, revenue range, RGE / Qualiopi / bio / ESS labels, free text
VAT number	Computed for every company from its SIREN (FR key + SIREN). It is not checked against VIES, so a company that never registered for VAT still gets the computed number
Personal data	None: no directors, sole traders excluded
API key	Not needed
Not included	Directors (dirigeants), emails, phone numbers, BODACC announcements

FAQ

Where does the data come from? The official SIRENE (INSEE) and RNE (INPI) open data, published by the French administration. The Actor reads them through the government's open API Recherche d'entreprises, the same API behind the Annuaire des Entreprises website.

Is the VAT number verified? No. It is computed from the SIREN with the standard French formula. Check VIES if you need proof the company is VAT-registered.

Can I search by SIREN or company name? Yes: put a name, SIREN or activity words in query.

Do I get directors (dirigeants) or emails? No. Company-level data only, on purpose.

How many results per search? Up to 10,000 per run; split bigger searches by department or size band.

Privacy, data source and limits

• Company-level data only. No directors, no person names, no personal contact data. Sole traders (entrepreneurs individuels, whose company name is a person's name) are excluded.
• Data: SIRENE (INSEE) and RNE (INPI) as published by the French administration through the open API Recherche d'entreprises (recherche-entreprises.api.gouv.fr), reusable under the Licence Ouverte / Etalab 2.0. Companies that opted out of public release (non-diffusibles) are not in the source.
• The API returns at most 10,000 matches per search. Split very large searches by department or size band.
• Not affiliated with INSEE, INPI or the French government. Check the official record before relying on a result.
