## Pricing

from $1.00 / 1,000 business listings

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

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`).

## Gouden Gids Scraper: Dutch Business Phones & Emails

[![20 Amsterdam plumbers, 13 emails, 52 seconds](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/cUXz95yxflDho41nn/records/goudengids-nl-business-email-scraper-hero.png)](https://console.apify.com/actors/khyq8l09jV6jcjxdZ/input)

From **The Mine Works**, makers of [Threads Scraper](https://apify.com/themineworks/threads-scraper) and [B2B Leads Finder](https://apify.com/themineworks/b2b-leads-finder), with over 140,000 runs across 170+ public actors.

Type a trade in Dutch and a place in the Netherlands, for example `loodgieter` in `Amsterdam`, and get one row per business that Gouden Gids (goudengids.nl) lists: name, phone in international format, address with postcode and province, coordinates, website, opening hours and the link to its Gouden Gids page. Turn on **Find emails** and the actor adds the email address the business published on Gouden Gids, or else one read from its own website. Open each business page and you also get the KvK number and Gouden Gids's trade categories.

### Why choose this actor?

- **Emails the businesses published themselves, charged only when delivered.** In our proof run (loodgieter in Amsterdam, 29 Sep 2026) **13 of 20 businesses came back with an email**, all from their own Gouden Gids page. The other 7 were delivered and charged as businesses only. On 1 Oct 2026, 11 of 20 hairdressers in Utrecht had one, 2 of them read from the business's website.
- **KvK numbers for matching against the Dutch company register.** The 8 digit Chamber of Commerce number came back for 12 of 20 businesses in both runs, at no extra charge.
- **Honest result lists.** Gouden Gids's own search page pads its last page with unrelated businesses from across the country, so the actor reads the site's category pages, which end cleanly. A place the site does not know returns nothing rather than the whole country, and the same business listed twice with a shared phone or website is delivered once. No account, cookies or API key.

[![Run it on Apify](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/cUXz95yxflDho41nn/records/button-run.png)](https://console.apify.com/actors/khyq8l09jV6jcjxdZ/input)

**Part of The Mine Works Leads and business directories family:** [B2B Leads Finder](https://apify.com/themineworks/b2b-leads-finder), [Skip Trace Lookup](https://apify.com/themineworks/skip-trace-lookup), [Google Maps Email Scraper](https://apify.com/themineworks/maps-leads), [JustDial Scraper](https://apify.com/themineworks/justdial-business), [2GIS Places Scraper](https://apify.com/themineworks/2gis-places-search), [IndiaMART Scraper](https://apify.com/themineworks/indiamart-suppliers).

### Try it in one minute

Paste this input into the JSON tab and press Start. It returns the first 10 plumbers Gouden Gids lists for Amsterdam, without emails, in a few seconds:

```json
{
  "queries": ["loodgieter"],
  "locations": ["Amsterdam"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 10
}
```

You can say what you want in two ways, and mix them in one run:

- **Queries and locations** (`queries`, `locations`): Dutch trade words as you would type them on the site, such as `loodgieter`, `kapper`, `tandarts`, `restaurant` or `advocaat familierecht`, and a town, a province (`Noord-Holland`) or a postcode (`1012AB`). Every query is searched in every location. Leave `locations` empty to search the whole country.
- **Search pages** (`startUrls`): a Gouden Gids results page copied from your browser, either a category page such as `https://www.goudengids.nl/nl/bedrijven/Amsterdam/loodgieter/` or a search page such as `https://www.goudengids.nl/nl/zoeken/loodgieter/Amsterdam/` (read through the category route, without the padding).

API and agent callers can also use other common field names: `query`, `keyword`, `keywords` or `searchTerms` for queries, `location`, `where` or `city` for locations, `urls` for search pages, and `maxResults` or `maxItems` for the limit.

Apify's free plan includes $5 of credit every month, which covers about 2,400 businesses at this actor's Free plan price with emails off ($0.002 a business plus $0.005 a run), or about 230 businesses with emails on at the rate of our proof run, about 150 of them with an email.

#### Copy to your AI assistant

```text
themineworks/goudengids-nl-business-email-scraper on Apify. Searches Gouden Gids (goudengids.nl), the Dutch yellow pages, by Dutch trade word and place and returns one row per business with name, phones, address, postcode, province, coordinates, website and opening hours, plus an optional email (usually published on Gouden Gids itself) and, with business pages or emails on, the KvK number and categories. Call ApifyClient("TOKEN").actor("themineworks/goudengids-nl-business-email-scraper").call(run_input={"queries": ["loodgieter"], "locations": ["Amsterdam"], "maxResultsPerSearch": 50, "includeEmails": true}), then client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items. Required: queries (Dutch trade words such as "loodgieter") unless startUrls is given. Optional: locations (town, province or postcode; empty = all of the Netherlands), startUrls (goudengids.nl search pages), maxResultsPerSearch (integer 1 to 1000, default 30), includeEmails (default false), includeDetails (default false), verifyEmailDomain (default true), allowUnblockerFallback (default true). Rows with _type "info" are run notes, never billed.

### Key features

- **Up to 1,000 businesses per search, up to 300 searches per run.** Gouden Gids shows 20 businesses a page and its category pages end exactly where the list ends: 361 plumbers for Amsterdam and 3,291 for the whole country on 1 Oct 2026. Each run takes up to 50 queries times 50 locations, capped at 300 searches.
- **26 fields per business**: listing id and Gouden Gids link, name, categories, every phone, the address split into street, postcode, town and province, coordinates, website, opening hours by day, description, the KvK number, the email and where it was found, and the search that found the row.
- **Emails from two places.** First the address the business published on its Gouden Gids page, then its own website: homepage, then the contact and legal pages it links to, then `/contact`, `/contacteer-ons`, `/over-ons`, `/colofon`, `/disclaimer` and `/privacy`, at most 5 pages and 20 seconds per site. Website addresses are kept only on the business's own domain or an ordinary provider such as gmail.com, ziggo.nl, kpnmail.nl or xs4all.nl. Every address, Gouden Gids's own included, goes through a mail server check: one directory address in the proof run failed it and was neither delivered nor charged. Up to 5 addresses per row, best first.
- **One row per business.** A business is delivered once per run even when two searches find it, and the same business under a second Gouden Gids id is dropped when the name matches and a phone or website is shared. Branches at two addresses stay two rows.
- **Typos and postcodes handled by the site.** `Amsterdm` and `1012AB` both returned the 361 Amsterdam plumbers in our test, and a place the site cannot find returns nothing with a note in the run summary.
- **Plain HTTP at 512 MB**, no browser. Every run writes a summary to the `OUTPUT` record in its key-value store: for each search the status (`ok`, `no_results` or `blocked`), the count Gouden Gids reports, pages read and refused, connection attempts, where the emails came from, and how many duplicates were dropped (`same_business_skipped`).

### How to use it

#### Basic: one trade in one town

```json
{
  "queries": ["tandarts"],
  "locations": ["Rotterdam"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 100
}
```

Gouden Gids reported 769 dentists for Rotterdam on 1 Oct 2026; 100 businesses take 5 pages. Results come nearest first, so a town search moves into the surrounding towns as it goes deeper (the last of the 361 Amsterdam plumbers are in Zaandam, Weesp and Edam). Filter on `city` if you need the town itself.

#### Several trades in several towns

Every query runs in every location, so this is six searches:

```json
{
  "queries": ["loodgieter", "elektricien", "dakdekker"],
  "locations": ["Utrecht", "Amersfoort"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 200
}
```

A business found by two of the searches is delivered once and charged once. Two searches run at a time.

#### A whole province, or the whole country

```json
{
  "queries": ["loodgieter"],
  "locations": ["Noord-Holland"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 1000
}
```

Gouden Gids reported 900 plumbers for Noord-Holland. Leave `locations` empty for the whole country (3,291). Do not type `Nederland`: the site reads it as a place name and returned 31 businesses from one small area in the north.

#### Cold email list with KvK numbers

```json
{
  "queries": ["kapper"],
  "locations": ["Utrecht"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 20,
  "includeEmails": true,
  "includeDetails": true
}
```

This is the input of our 1 Oct 2026 run: 20 businesses and 20 business pages in 30 seconds, 11 emails (9 from Gouden Gids, 2 from websites) and 12 KvK numbers. With `includeEmails` on, the actor opens the business page anyway for any business whose email is not yet known, because Gouden Gids keeps the email there, not on the results page.

#### Monthly refresh on a schedule

Save any of the inputs above as a task, then in Apify Console open Schedules, add a schedule (for example the first of every month) and pick the task. Each scheduled run is billed like a manual one, and the schedule itself is free. The actor has no "only new businesses" mode, so compare `listing_id` with your last export to find the newcomers.

#### Read a search you already set up on the site

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.goudengids.nl/nl/bedrijven/Amsterdam/loodgieter/" }
  ],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 60
}
```

Each pasted page is read from its first page on, with the same limits and charges as a typed search.

### Input parameters

| Parameter | Type | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| `queries` | array of strings | none (prefilled with `loodgieter`) | Dutch trade words to search, one per line. Up to 50. Needed unless you give `startUrls`. |
| `locations` | array of strings | empty (prefilled with `Amsterdam`) | Towns, provinces or postcodes, one per line. Every query is searched in every location. Empty searches the whole country. Up to 50. |
| `startUrls` | array | empty | Gouden Gids search result pages, read instead of or as well as the queries. |
| `maxResultsPerSearch` | integer | `30` | Most businesses per query and location, 1 to 1,000. The site shows 20 per page. |
| `includeEmails` | boolean | `false` | Add each business's email: the address on its Gouden Gids page first, then its website. Charged only for rows that come back with one. |
| `includeDetails` | boolean | `false` | Also open each business's own Gouden Gids page, for the KvK number, categories and full description. No extra charge, slower. With `includeEmails` on, the page is opened anyway for a business whose email is not yet known. |
| `verifyEmailDomain` | boolean | `true` | Keep an email only when its domain can receive mail. Applies to Gouden Gids's and website emails alike. |
| `allowUnblockerFallback` | boolean | `true` | When a search page is refused several times over the fast connection, retry it through Apify's unblocking proxy. Included in the price. Turn off to report such pages as refused instead. |

Give at least one query or one search page. A run with neither writes a note row and stops; the $0.005 start fee still applies.

### What data do you get?

One row per business. Fields with no value are left out of the row rather than sent as empty.

**The business**

- `listing_id` (Gouden Gids's id, such as `L120016790`), `listing_url`, `name`, `categories` (Gouden Gids's trades, such as `Loodgieters`, from the business page), `description` (cut short by the site on the results page), `opening_hours` (one entry per day and time range, such as `Mo 07:00-16:00`). Gouden Gids shows a rating only for businesses with reviews, and none of the businesses in our test searches had one, so expect none

**Contact**

- `phone` (the first number) and `phones` (all of them), in international format such as `+31 20 614 5590`; `website`, with `utm_`, `fbclid`, `gclid` and `mc_` tracking parameters removed

**Address and map**

- `address` (one line), `street`, `postal_code` (written the Dutch way, such as `1046 AR`), `city`, `region` (the province, such as `Noord-Holland`), `country` (always `NL`), `latitude`, `longitude`

**Company register** (from the business page, with `includeDetails` or `includeEmails` on)

- `kvk_number`, the 8 digit Chamber of Commerce number, when the business published it

**Email** (with `includeEmails` on)

- `email` (the best address), `emails` (up to 5, best first), `email_source` (`directory` or `website`) and `email_source_url` (the Gouden Gids page, or the website page it was read from)

**Search context**

- `source_site` (`goudengids.nl`), `search_query`, `search_location`, `scraped_at`

Fill rates in the proof run (20 businesses, emails on, so every business page was opened): email 13, KvK number 12, phone 16, website 7, opening hours 6, description 3; address, coordinates and categories 20 each.

#### Stable fields for automations

These fields were present in every one of 59 business rows across the proof run, our 1 Oct 2026 Utrecht run and the result cards saved for our tests (with and without business pages), and their names will not change:

| Field | What it holds |
|---|---|
| `listing_id` | Gouden Gids's id for the business, the same in every run |
| `listing_url` | Link to the business's page on goudengids.nl |
| `name` | Business name as listed |
| `address` | Street, postcode and town on one line |
| `street` | Street and number |
| `postal_code` | Dutch postcode, such as `1046 AR` |
| `city` | Town |
| `region` | Province |
| `country` | Always `NL` |
| `latitude` | Latitude in decimal degrees |
| `longitude` | Longitude in decimal degrees |
| `source_site` | Always `goudengids.nl` |
| `search_query` | The query or pasted search that found the row |
| `scraped_at` | When the row was read (ISO 8601) |

`search_location` is present whenever the search had a place. `categories` comes from the business page, so it is in every row only when business pages are opened; `phone` was missing on about one row in five.

#### Output examples

Real rows, trimmed where marked. From the proof run on 29 Sep 2026 (`loodgieter` in `Amsterdam`, emails on), a business with its email, KvK number and opening hours on Gouden Gids (complete row):

From our 1 Oct 2026 run (`kapper` in `Utrecht`, emails and business pages on), an email read from the business's own website (trimmed):

```json
{
  "listing_id": "L1189606540010",

  "kvk_number": "30127912"
}
```

From the same run, a salon with a phone and KvK number but no website or email, charged as a business only (trimmed):

```json
{
  "listing_id": "L522768044",
  "name": "CHEWIE INC",
  "categories": ["Kappers"],
  "phone": "+31 30 633 0810",

  "latitude": 52.093563,
  "longitude": 5.1129518,
  "kvk_number": "64774643"
}
```

The note row at the end of the run (never charged; filter on `_type` to drop it), trimmed:

```json
{
  "_type": "info",
  "delivered": 20,
  "message": "20 businesses delivered. This row is informational: it is never billed.",
  "scraped_at": "2026-09-29T09:33:34.457Z"
}
```

### Pricing

You pay per business delivered to your dataset, plus a flat start fee per run. An email is a second, separate charge, made only for rows that come back with one. The fast connection and the unblocking proxy fallback are included.

| Event | Free plan | Starter (Bronze) | Scale (Silver) | Business (Gold) and above |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Business delivered (`listing-scraped`), per business | $0.002 | $0.0017 | $0.0014 | $0.001 |
| Business delivered, per 1,000 | $2.00 | $1.70 | $1.40 | $1.00 |
| Email found (`email-found`), per email | $0.03 | $0.025 | $0.02 | $0.015 |
| Email found, per 1,000 | $30 | $25 | $20 | $15 |
| Run start (`run-start`), once per run | $0.005 | $0.005 | $0.005 | $0.005 |

The start fee is our own `run-start` event: a flat $0.005 once per run, whatever memory you choose. It is not Apify's per GB start fee, and it is charged on every run, including a run that finds nothing. These prices took effect on 28 Sep 2026, and no change is scheduled as of 1 Oct 2026. The Pricing tab always shows the rate for your own plan; if this table and the Pricing tab ever disagree, the Pricing tab is right.

**What a real job costs.** 1,000 businesses with emails off cost $2.00 plus $0.005 on the Free plan, and $1.00 plus $0.005 on Business. With emails on, at the rate of our two runs (24 emails in 40 rows), 1,000 businesses bring about 600 emails: about $18 more on Free and $9 more on Business. Turn emails on only for the searches where you need them; business pages cost nothing extra.

Never charged:

- search pages the site refused, and the retries through the unblocking proxy;
- a business already delivered by another search in the same run, or the same business under a second Gouden Gids id;
- a search for a place Gouden Gids does not know (nothing is delivered);
- business pages and websites that were opened but gave no email (the row is charged as a business only);
- an email on a domain with no mail server, from Gouden Gids or a website (it is dropped);
- an email address already charged earlier in the same run, such as the shared inbox of a chain's branches (it is still delivered on every row);
- the note row and the `OUTPUT` run summary.

To cap what a run can cost, set a maximum total charge in the run options. The actor stops before a business the budget cannot pay for, and when the budget covers a business but not its email, the row is delivered without the email and the email is not charged.

### FAQ

#### What is Gouden Gids?

The Dutch yellow pages at goudengids.nl, run by FCR Media. It lists tradespeople, shops, restaurants, clinics, professionals and companies across the Netherlands, with phone, address and opening hours, and for many of them a website, an email and the KvK number.

#### How many businesses can I get?

Up to 1,000 per search and up to 300 searches per run. The count Gouden Gids reports is in the run summary (361 plumbers in Amsterdam, 900 in Noord-Holland, 3,291 nationwide on 1 Oct 2026). For a trade with more than 1,000 businesses, split the search by province or town. A run stops cleanly before its timeout (one hour by default) and keeps everything delivered so far, so raise the timeout in the run options for very large runs.

#### What do I type into Queries?

The Dutch trade as you would search on the site: `loodgieter`, `kapper`, `tandarts`, `restaurant`, `advocaat familierecht`. The site reads it as its own category, so singular and plural both work. English words find little: `plumber` found 20 businesses in Amsterdam against 361 for `loodgieter`.

#### What do I type into Locations?

A town (`Amsterdam`, `Den Haag`), a province (`Noord-Holland`) or a postcode (`1012AB`). The site corrects small typos (`Amsterdm`). Leave it empty for the whole country; do not type `Nederland`, which the site reads as a place name in the north. A place the site cannot find returns nothing, with a note in the run summary.

#### Why are some businesses outside the town I searched?

Gouden Gids lists businesses nearest first and keeps going into the surrounding towns, so the deeper you read, the farther you get. Each row has its real `city`, so filter on it if you need the town itself, or set `maxResultsPerSearch` to roughly the number in that town.

#### How fresh is the data?

Every run reads the site live; nothing comes from a cache. `scraped_at` on each row says when it was read.

#### Do I need a Gouden Gids account, cookies or an API key?

No. The actor reads the public pages any visitor sees, without signing in. There is nothing of yours to connect.

#### Do I need to set up a proxy?

No. The actor uses a fast connection that looks like a normal Chrome browser, through Apify's datacenter proxies, and Gouden Gids answered every search and business page that way in our 1 Oct 2026 run. The site now and then refuses a single attempt (4 of 87 in our build tests); a retry on a fresh connection passes, and a page refused several times is retried through Apify's unblocking proxy, included in the price. Refused pages are listed in the run summary and never charged.

#### Will every business have an email?

No. Gouden Gids shows the email a business gave it on the business page, and in our runs 13 of 20 Amsterdam plumbers and 11 of 20 Utrecht hairdressers had one; for the others the actor tries the business's own website. A business with neither gives none. The actor never guesses an address from a name, and you pay nothing extra for a row without one.

#### What is the KvK number?

The 8 digit number of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (Kamer van Koophandel) register. It is returned as `kvk_number` when the business published it on its Gouden Gids page, which the actor opens with `includeDetails` or `includeEmails` on.

#### Which pages does it read?

Category pages (`/nl/bedrijven/<town>/<trade>/` and their numbered pages) and, when needed, business pages (`/nl/bedrijf/...`). Gouden Gids's robots.txt, read again on 1 Oct 2026, allows both for every crawler; it disallows only the site's API and its business account pages.

#### Does it cover Belgium?

No. goudengids.be is a separate site; use our [Pages d'Or Belgium Scraper](https://apify.com/themineworks/pagesdor-business-email-scraper), which covers it in French and Dutch.

#### Which formats can I export?

JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, HTML table and RSS from the dataset page in Apify Console, or through the Apify API.

#### Can I use it from Claude, ChatGPT or another AI agent?

- Claude Code: `claude mcp add -t http goudengids-nl-business-email-scraper "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=themineworks/goudengids-nl-business-email-scraper"`.

#### Is it legal to scrape Gouden Gids?

The actor collects only publicly visible business listings and never signs in. Business contact details are still personal data when they identify a person, for example a sole trader's name and mobile number, so how you store and use them is your responsibility: follow the site's terms and the GDPR (AVG), and where you send marketing messages also the Dutch Telecommunications Act rules on unsolicited email (and CAN-SPAM or the CCPA for contacts in the US). This is general information, not legal advice. The actor is an independent tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by Gouden Gids or FCR Media.

*Gouden Gids Scraper turns a Dutch trade word and a place into rows of businesses with phone, address, coordinates and opening hours and, when you want them, the email the business published and its KvK number.*

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

Business types or trades to search, one per line, for example loodgieter. Each query is searched in every location below. Needed unless you paste search pages into Start URLs. Up to 50 per run.

## `locations` (type: `array`):

Town, city, region or postcode, one per line, typed the way you would on www.goudengids.nl, for example Amsterdam. Leave empty to search the whole country. Up to 50 per run.

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Optional. Paste search result pages from www.goudengids.nl instead of, or as well as, Queries and Locations. Each page is read from its first page on.

## `maxResultsPerSearch` (type: `integer`):

Most businesses to return for each query and location, 1 to 1,000. The directory shows 20 per page, so 100 businesses take about 5 pages.

## `includeEmails` (type: `boolean`):

Off by default. Turn on to look for each business's email address: first the address the directory publishes, then the business's own website (homepage, then its contact and legal pages). You are charged the email price only for rows that come back with an email; a business where none is found costs nothing extra.

## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Also open each business's own page on the directory for the extra fields it holds, such as coordinates, opening hours, categories and registration numbers. Slower, and no extra charge. With Find emails on, the business page is opened anyway when the search result has no email.

## `verifyEmailDomain` (type: `boolean`):

Only keep an email when its domain can receive mail (it has a mail server). Removes addresses of dead or misspelled domains, so you are not charged for them. Only used when Find emails is on.

## `allowUnblockerFallback` (type: `boolean`):

Search pages are read over a fast connection first. If the site refuses a page several times, try it through Apify's unblocking proxy, which is slower. Included in the price. Turn off to report such pages as refused instead.

## Actor input object example

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,themineworks/goudengids-nl-business-email-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
