Nordic Company Registry Scraper (NO + FI + SE + DK)

Scrapes official company registry data from four Nordic countries in one run. Norway via Brønnøysund (BRREG), Finland via PRH open data, Sweden via allabolag.se, and Denmark via proff.dk — all consolidated into a single structured dataset.

No account needed. All four sources are public, and the actor hits them with a polite query rate that keeps it off any blocklist worth caring about.

What You Get

  • Legal name and org number — the official registered name and primary identifier from each registry
  • Status — active, bankrupt, liquidating, or closed
  • Legal form — AS (Norway), Oy (Finland), AB (Sweden), ApS (Denmark), and their variants
  • Industry code + description — NACE codes for Norway, NAICS-aligned for Finland, proprietary classification for Sweden/Denmark
  • Address — business and postal addresses, city, and postal code
  • Employees — headcount where the registry discloses it
  • Revenue and profit — annual figures in local currency (Sweden and Denmark via allabolag/proff financials; Norway and Finland don't include financials in their open API)
  • Contact info — phone, email, and website where listed
  • Parent org number — Norwegian companies that are subsidiaries report their parent's org number

How It Works

  1. You select one or more countries and provide a search term (or leave blank for Norway/Finland to get recently registered companies)
  2. For Norway: queries BRREG at data.brreg.no — the official open API, no rate limit, 1.16M+ entities
  3. For Finland: queries PRH open data at avoindata.prh.fi — government open data, 677K+ companies
  4. For Sweden: searches allabolag.se with your query — the same JSON API used by the website, accessed with a proper Chrome TLS fingerprint
  5. For Denmark: searches proff.dk with your query — the same underlying Bisnode/D&B platform as allabolag.se, identical API structure
  6. Results are normalized into a unified schema and returned as a single dataset

Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event billing: $0.10 per run + $0.001 per record. A run returning 100 Norwegian companies costs $0.20. Financial data for Swedish and Danish companies is included at no extra charge — it comes from the same API call.

🔍 FAQ

How do I scrape Nordic company data? Nordic Company Registry Scraper queries four open government registries and returns results in a unified schema. Select the countries you want, enter a search term, set maxItems, and run.

Does the actor need proxies? Nordic Company Registry Scraper doesn't require proxies. Norway (BRREG) and Finland (PRH) are plain open JSON APIs. Sweden and Denmark use Chrome TLS fingerprinting to pass the passive Cloudflare check on allabolag.se and proff.dk — this is handled internally, no proxy configuration needed.

Why is revenue null for Norwegian and Finnish companies? Nordic Company Registry Scraper pulls from the official open APIs for Norway (BRREG) and Finland (PRH), which don't include financial statements. Revenue and profit are available for Swedish (allabolag.se) and Danish (proff.dk) companies because those sources aggregate financial data alongside the registry record.

Can I search by industry code? Not directly — the actor takes a company name search. For Norway and Finland, leaving the search field blank returns recently registered companies in order. For volume collection across an industry, run with a broad term and filter by industry_code in your downstream pipeline.

How current is the data? BRREG (Norway) updates daily. PRH (Finland) updates weekly. allabolag.se and proff.dk reflect their own update cycles, which are continuous for registry data and annual for financials.

Why Use Nordic Company Registry Scraper?

  • Four countries, one run — replaces five separate scrapers (allabolag, proff.no, proff.dk, BRREG manual export, PRH download) with a single actor call
  • Open APIs, no login — BRREG and PRH are fully open government data. allabolag and proff need a Chrome fingerprint, not an account, which means no credential maintenance and no rate-limit negotiations
  • Unified schema — org number, legal name, status, and address come back in the same field names regardless of country, so your downstream pipeline doesn't need country-specific logic
