Pages d'Or Belgium Scraper: Business Phones & Emails

From The Mine Works, makers of Threads Scraper and B2B Leads Finder, with over 140,000 runs across 170+ public actors. This actor ranks #1 for "pages d'or belgium" in Apify Store search.

Why choose this actor?

• An email on almost every Belgian business. Belgian firms publish their email on Pages d'Or far more often than firms do on the other national directories we scrape. In our proof run (électricien in Liège, 29 Sep 2026) 20 of 20 businesses came back with an email, 19 from the Pages d'Or listing and 1 from the business's own website. You pay for an email only when one is delivered, and a chain's shared inbox is charged once per run.
• VAT and enterprise numbers you can match on. With emails or business pages on, all 20 rows of the proof run carried the Belgian VAT number and the ten digit enterprise number (KBO in Dutch, BCE in French), plus phone, address, coordinates and categories. No Pages d'Or account, no cookies, no proxy to set up.
• Only the businesses the site lists for your town. Pages d'Or quietly pads the end of a town's list with businesses from elsewhere in Belgium, and turns a town it does not know into a nationwide search. The actor cuts both, so you are never billed for nationwide rows under a town's name. A business found by two searches, or on both the French and the Dutch site, is delivered and charged once.

Try it in one minute

Paste this input and press Start. It returns 10 electricians in and around Liège, without emails, in a few seconds:

{
  "queries": ["électricien"],
  "locations": ["Liège"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 10
}

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

• Queries and locations (queries, locations): trade words as you would type them on the site, such as plombier, dentiste or boulangerie, and towns, cities or provinces such as Bruxelles, Liège or Brabant Flamand. Every query is searched in every location. A postcode works together with its town (4000 Liège); a postcode on its own finds nothing on Pages d'Or. Leave locations empty to search the whole country.
• Search pages (startUrls): any search result page from www.pagesdor.be (/trouvez/... or /entreprises/...) or www.goudengids.be (/zoeken/... or /bedrijven/...), copied from the address bar.
• Site language (language): fr searches pagesdor.be, nl searches goudengids.be, both searches each query on both sites and removes the businesses found twice.

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, or about 150 businesses that each come back with an email.

Call ApifyClient("TOKEN").actor("themineworks/pagesdor-business-email-scraper").call(run_input={"queries": ["plombier"], "locations": ["Bruxelles"], "maxResultsPerSearch": 50, "includeEmails": true}), then client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items. Required: queries (trade words in the site's language) or startUrls (pagesdor.be or goudengids.be search pages). Optional: locations (towns, cities, provinces, or postcode plus town; empty = all of Belgium), language (fr, nl or both; default fr), maxResultsPerSearch (default 30, 1 to 1000), includeEmails (default false), includeDetails (default false), verifyEmailDomain (default true), allowUnblockerFallback (default true). Rows with _type "info" are notes, not businesses.

Key features

• 29 fields per business: name, categories, every phone in international format, street, postcode, town, coordinates, website, rating, review count, opening hours, description, VAT number, enterprise number, the email and where it was found, and the search that found the row.
• Both language sites in one actor. Pages d'Or (French) and Gouden Gids (Dutch) are one platform with two front ends. Pick fr, nl or both; with both, a business that appears on both sites is delivered once.
• Up to 50 queries times 50 locations per run, at most 300 searches, and up to 1,000 businesses per search. The site shows 20 per page, and the actor turns the pages for you.
• Emails from two places. First the address the business published on its Pages d'Or page, then its own website (homepage, then contact and legal pages, at most 5 pages and 20 seconds per site). Up to 5 addresses per row, best first, each checked for a working mail server.
• Clean lists. The padding the site adds after a town's real results is cut, an unknown town returns nothing instead of the whole country, and the same business under a second listing id (an advert and its normal card) is kept once.
• Plain HTTP at 512 MB, no browser. Every run writes a summary to the OUTPUT record: per search, the status, the number of results the site reports, pages read and refused, and where the emails came from.

How to use it

Basic: one trade in one town

{
  "queries": ["plombier"],
  "locations": ["Bruxelles"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 100
}

Pages d'Or reported 256 plumbers for this search on 1 Oct 2026. A town's search returns what the site lists for it, which includes nearby communes and some advertisers who serve the town from further away: the Liège proof run returned businesses in Herstal, Seraing and Stavelot.

Several trades in several towns

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

{
  "queries": ["plombier", "électricien", "chauffagiste"],
  "locations": ["Namur", "Charleroi"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 200
}

A business found by two of the searches is delivered once and charged once.

French and Dutch at once

The site reads search words in its own language: in a 28 Sep 2026 test, plombier in Bruxelles gave 256 results on pagesdor.be but 67 on goudengids.be, and loodgieter gave 39 and 255. To cover both communities, list the word in both languages and search both sites:

{
  "queries": ["plombier", "loodgieter"],
  "locations": ["Bruxelles"],
  "language": "both",
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 300
}

The businesses the four searches share are delivered once.

Cold email list for a province

Agencies and suppliers selling to Belgian trades build a list per province with the email turned on:

{
  "queries": ["électricien"],
  "locations": ["Brabant Flamand", "Liège", "Namur"],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 500,
  "includeEmails": true
}

Rows with an email carry email_source (directory or website) and email_source_url. To refresh the list every month, save the input as a task and add it to a schedule in Apify Console (Schedules, Add schedule). The actor has no "only new" mode, so compare listing_id with last month's export to find the newcomers.

VAT numbers for CRM matching, without paying for emails

Opening each business page costs nothing extra and adds the VAT number, the enterprise number, categories, opening hours and the full description:

{
  "queries": ["boulangerie"],
  "locations": ["Liège"],
  "includeDetails": true,
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 100
}

Match company_number against the crossroads bank (KBO or BCE) or your CRM. The run is slower than a plain search, because it reads one more page per business.

Read a search you already set up on the site

Paste the result page from your browser, from either site:

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.goudengids.be/zoeken/loodgieter/Antwerpen/" },
    { "url": "https://www.pagesdor.be/trouvez/plombier/Bruxelles/" }
  ],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 50
}

Each pasted page is read from its first page on, on its own site, whatever language says.

Input parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	What it does
queries	array of strings	none (prefilled with plombier)	Trade words to search, one per line, in the site's language. Up to 50. Needed unless you give startUrls.
locations	array of strings	empty	Towns, cities or provinces, typed as on the site, for example Bruxelles. A postcode needs its town (4000 Liège). Every query is searched in every location. Empty searches all of Belgium. Up to 50.
startUrls	array	empty	Search result pages from www.pagesdor.be or www.goudengids.be, 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	Look for each business's email: the address on its Pages d'Or page first, then its website. Charged only for rows where one is found.
includeDetails	boolean	false	Open each business's own page for categories, opening hours, VAT and enterprise numbers and the full description. No extra charge, slower. With includeEmails on, the page is opened anyway.
language	string	fr	fr (pagesdor.be), nl (goudengids.be) or both (each search on both sites, duplicates removed).
verifyEmailDomain	boolean	true	Keep an email only when its domain has a mail server. Applies to directory 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.

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 (the site's id, such as L13773640, the same on both language sites), listing_url, name, categories (the site's own trade headings, from the business page), description, rating, review_count, opening_hours

Contact

• phone (the first number) and phones (all of them), in international format such as +32 4 277 19 71; website, with tracking parameters removed

Address and map

• address (one line), street, postal_code, city (as the site writes it, for example Ougrée (Seraing)), region (only when the site gives one), country (BE), latitude, longitude

Belgian registration

• vat_id (for example BE0797007923) and company_number (the ten digit KBO or BCE enterprise number), read from the business page, so present when includeEmails or includeDetails is on and the business published them

Email (with includeEmails on)

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

Search context

• source_site (pagesdor.be or goudengids.be), search_query, search_location, scraped_at

Fill rates in the proof run (20 businesses, emails on): phone 19, website 12, rating 8, opening hours 11, coordinates, categories, VAT and enterprise number 20 each. Categories, opening hours and the registration numbers come from the business page, so a run with emails and business pages both off returns the search card fields only.

Stable fields for automations

These fields were present in every one of the 20 business rows of the proof run, are filled from every search card, and their names will not change:

Field	What it holds
listing_id	The site's id for the business, the same in every run and on both language sites
listing_url	Link to the business page on pagesdor.be or goudengids.be
name	Business name as listed
address	Street, postcode and town on one line
street	Street and number
postal_code	Four digit Belgian postcode
city	Town, with the municipality in brackets when the site gives it
country	Always BE
source_site	pagesdor.be or goudengids.be
search_query	The query or pasted search that found the row
scraped_at	When the row was read (ISO 8601)

phone, latitude and longitude were in nearly every row (19, 20 and 20 of 20), but the site lists some businesses without a phone and a few advertisers without coordinates, so test for them before you rely on them.

Output examples

Real rows from the proof run on 29 Sep 2026 (électricien in Liège, emails on), trimmed: some fields (including categories) are left out and opening hours are cut to two days.

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.

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.

A worked example on the Starter plan: 1,000 businesses with emails off cost $1.70 plus $0.005. With emails on, Belgian rows often all carry an email, so plan for up to 1,000 emails at $0.025 on top ($25). Turn emails on only when you need them.

Never charged:

• search pages the site refused, and the retries through the unblocking proxy;
• a business already delivered by another search in the run, on either language site, or the same business under a second listing id;
• the padding the site adds after a town's real results, and nationwide results for a town the site does not know (they are not delivered at all);
• business pages and websites that were opened but gave no email (the row is charged as a business only);
• 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 are Pages d'Or and Gouden Gids?

Belgium's yellow pages: one business directory with a French front end (www.pagesdor.be) and a Dutch one (www.goudengids.be). It lists tradespeople, shops, restaurants, professionals and companies across Belgium, with phone, address, website and often an email.

How many businesses can I get?

Up to 1,000 per search and up to 300 searches per run (50 queries times 50 locations, capped at 300). The site reports how many results each search has, and the run summary repeats that number. For a big area, split it into towns or provinces, each its own location.

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 Pages d'Or 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 the site lets most requests through: in the proof run all 21 requests (1 search page and 20 business pages) passed on the first try. When the site refuses a search page several times, the actor retries it through Apify's unblocking proxy, which is slower and included in the price. Refused pages are listed in the run summary and never charged.

Will every business have an email?

No, but many will. In the proof run 20 of 20 électricien rows in Liège had one (19 from the directory, 1 from a website), and in a 28 Sep 2026 test 19 of 20 plombier rows in Bruxelles had one. A business that published no email on the directory and has no website, or only a social media page, gives none. The actor never guesses an address from a name, and you pay nothing extra for a row without an email.

What is the difference between the email from the directory and from the website?

A directory email is the one the business gave Pages d'Or. A website email is read from the business's own homepage, contact or legal page, and kept only when it is on the business's own domain or on an ordinary provider such as skynet.be, telenet.be or gmail.com; the address of the agency that built the site is dropped. Both go through the same mail server check when verifyEmailDomain is on.

Why do I get fewer businesses than the number the site shows?

For a large town the two numbers match. For a small town with fewer than 20 businesses in a trade, the site puts the whole country in its count (thousands of results) and fills the page with businesses from elsewhere. The actor delivers only the businesses the site lists for that town, and says so in the run summary when there are none. Search the larger town nearby to find more.

Why did a search return nothing?

Three usual reasons, each named in the run summary: the site does not know the place (it would have searched the whole country, so the actor stops instead), the place is a postcode without its town (1000 finds nothing, 4000 Liège works), or the trade word is in the other language (loodgieter on the French site gives far fewer results than plombier). A search with no results costs nothing beyond the run's start fee.

What is the enterprise number?

Every Belgian business is registered in the crossroads bank for enterprises with a ten digit number (KBO in Dutch, BCE in French). It is returned as company_number, next to the VAT number vat_id, when the business page publishes it. Turn on includeEmails or includeDetails to get them.

Can I get only the new businesses each month?

There is no "only new" mode in this actor. Schedule the same input (save it as a task, then Schedules, Add schedule in Apify Console) and compare listing_id with your last export. Each scheduled run is billed like a manual one; the schedule itself is free.

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?

• Connector URL: https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=themineworks/pagesdor-business-email-scraper.
• Claude: Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, paste the URL, sign in with Apify.
• ChatGPT: developer mode, add an MCP connector with the URL, sign in with Apify.
• Cursor or VS Code: add it as an HTTP MCP server with that URL.
• Claude Code: claude mcp add -t http pagesdor-business-email-scraper "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=themineworks/pagesdor-business-email-scraper".

Is it legal to scrape Pages d'Or and 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, and where you send marketing messages also the ePrivacy rules in your country (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 Pages d'Or, Gouden Gids or FCR Media.

Pages d'Or Belgium Scraper turns any Pages d'Or or Gouden Gids search into rows of Belgian businesses with phone, address, coordinates, VAT number and, when you want it, an email checked for a working mail server.
