Company records from Norway and Finland.

Returns company records from Norway's Enhetsregisteret (Brønnøysundregistrene) and Finland's YTJ (PRH) in one schema, so a Norwegian AS and a Finnish Oy have the same fields: organisation number, name, legal form, status, industry, address, website, VAT registration and bankruptcy flags.

What it does.

Search by company name, organisation number or Business ID, industry code (NACE in Norway, TOL in Finland), municipality or registration date. A run with empty input returns the companies registered in the last seven days in both countries, newest first for Norway, so a daily run with onlyNew set to true gives you the new companies every morning.

Only legal entities are returned. Sole proprietorships (ENK in Norway, toiminimi in Finland) are left out, since the business is the person, and names of people, roles, board members, phone numbers and e-mail addresses are never returned. The sample below is a name search for Equinor in Norway on 3 October 2026.

{
  "query": "Equinor",

  "maxResults": 20,
  "includeBankrupt": false,
  "includeInactive": false
}

What a run costs

A run with the default input returns at most 50 companies, so it costs at most 0.20 USD. The run with empty input on 5 October 2026 returned 50 companies in about 6 seconds, which is 0.20 USD, and the Equinor search shown above returned 20, 0.08 USD. maxResults caps every run, rows that are filtered out are not charged, and platform usage is included in the price.

Run it on a schedule.

  1. Ask for new rows only

    Set onlyNew to true. The actor remembers what it has already delivered for the same input, in a named key-value store in your own Apify account (nightwave-state-nordic-company-registers).
  2. Add a schedule

    Add the actor to a schedule in Apify Console, for example with the cron expression 0 7 * * * for 07:00 every day.
  3. Get what is new

    The first run returns everything in the selection. After that, each run returns and charges only what is new. A run with nothing new finishes with 0 rows and costs nothing.

Source and license.

Norwegian records come from the Enhetsregisteret open data API of Brønnøysundregistrene, and Finnish records from the YTJ open data API v3 of the Finnish Patent and Registration Office. Every run reads the registers live. Norwegian sub-units (local branches) are not included. The tool is not made by or affiliated with Brreg or PRH.

Brreg data is published under NLOD 2.0 and PRH YTJ data under CC BY 4.0. Both allow commercial use and require attribution, and PRH asks to be named as the source. Every row carries source, license and sourceUrl, a link to the public register page.
