Norway Company Data Scraper (Brønnøysund) 🇳🇴

Export clean, structured Norwegian company data — straight from the official Brønnøysund register. No API key required.

Every company in Norway is registered in Enhetsregisteret, run by the Brønnøysund Register Centre — one of the most open government data sources in the world. This Actor searches it by name, industry (NACE) code, legal form, municipality, employee count, VAT and bankruptcy status — or looks up companies by organisation number — and returns a clean record per company.

Official open government API. No key, no login, no scraping — just clean public register data.

Notes & limitations

• Uses the official Brønnøysund Enhetsregisteret open API — no key needed.
• Industry (NACE) filtering matches the company's main registered activity; some operating activity codes are held on sub-units and won't match a main-unit search.
• Each search can page through up to ~10,000 results (register limit); narrow with filters for larger populations.
• This is factual public register data.
