## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Slovakia RPVS Beneficial Owners (UBO) Scraper

Resolve the **beneficial owners (UBO)** behind any Slovak public-sector partner from Slovakia's public beneficial-ownership register - the **RPVS (Register partnerov verejného sektora)** - by IČO or company name, as structured JSON. Each record gives the company identity plus its beneficial owners (konečný užívateľ výhod), each with a **public-official (PEP) flag**, and the authorised person who filed and verifies the entry.

**No login, no API key, nothing to configure** - just send an IČO or a company name.

Slovakia's RPVS is one of only **two genuinely public beneficial-ownership registers in the EU** (the other is Poland's CRBR). Every company that takes public money - contracts, subsidies, licences - must disclose its ultimate beneficial owners here. That makes it a high-value, low-noise source for KYC/KYB, UBO discovery, PEP screening, and counterparty due diligence.

### What data do you get?

One record per public-sector partner, with its beneficial owners resolved:

```json
{
  "registerNumber": 7049,
  "partnerName": "Slovak Telekom, a.s.",
  "ico": "35763469",
  "legalForm": "PravnickaOsoba",
  "isCurrentlyRegistered": true,
  "validFrom": "2017-02-01T00:00:00+01:00",
  "validTo": null,
  "beneficialOwners": [
    { "firstName": "Timotheus", "lastName": "Höttges", "fullName": "Timotheus Höttges", "type": "person", "isPublicOfficial": false, "validFrom": "2017-02-01T00:00:00+01:00", "validTo": null, "isCurrent": true }
  ],
  "beneficialOwnerCount": 20,
  "hasPublicOfficial": false,
  "authorizedPersons": [ { "name": "Malata, Pružinský, Hegedüš & Partners s. r. o.", "type": "company", "ico": "47239915" } ],
  "jurisdiction": "SK",
  "source": "RPVS - Register partnerov verejného sektora (Ministerstvo spravodlivosti SR)",
  "sourceUrl": "https://rpvs.gov.sk/",
  "retrievedAt": "2026-07-02T00:00:00.000Z"
}
```

`beneficialOwners` is an array (a company usually has several). `isPublicOfficial` per owner and `hasPublicOfficial` at the partner level are the register's own public-official flag - a first-pass PEP signal. Date of birth is redacted (`null`) in the public feed. The raw register splits each partner across several entities; this actor joins them so you get one tidy record with the full owner list, PEP flags, and validity dates already resolved.

### How much does it cost?

**Pay per result** - you are not charged for Apify platform usage, only per partner record. See the **Pricing** tab on this page for the current figure. The free Apify plan returns a small preview. No subscription, no minimum.

### Is it legal, and where does the data come from?

Data comes from the official **RPVS open-data API** at [rpvs.gov.sk](https://rpvs.gov.sk/), maintained by the Ministry of Justice of the Slovak Republic. The RPVS is a **public register open to anyone**; this actor reads the official open-data feed and logs in to nothing. Date of birth and other protected personal data are already redacted by the register in the public feed. Use the data lawfully (KYC/AML, due diligence, B2B).

### How do I use it?

Look up a company's beneficial owners by IČO:

```json
{ "searchMode": "byIco", "icoNumbers": ["35763469"] }
```

Search by company name (`{ "searchMode": "byName", "searchQuery": "Telekom" }`), or screen several IČOs keeping only currently-valid entries (`{ "searchMode": "byIco", "icoNumbers": ["35763469", "31322832"], "currentOnly": true }`).

### Input options

| Field | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| `searchMode` | string | `byIco` (default) or `byName`. |
| `icoNumbers` | array | Slovak IČO numbers (used in `byIco` mode). |
| `searchQuery` | string | Company name, contains-match (used in `byName` mode). |
| `exactMatch` | boolean | `byName`: match the name exactly. Default `false`. |
| `currentOnly` | boolean | Keep only currently-valid owners/identities. Default `false`. |
| `maxResults` | integer | Max partner records to export. Default `50`. |

### Pairs with the UBO & debtor actors (source -> screen)

This actor **sources the ultimate beneficial owners**. Chain it with a **debtor / insolvency screen** on those same people and companies:

- **[Poland CRBR](https://apify.com/regdata/crbr-beneficial-owners-scraper)** - the same public-UBO register for Poland (RPVS is its Slovak twin).
- **[Poland KRZ](https://apify.com/regdata/krz-debtor-scraper)** / **[Germany Insolvency](https://apify.com/regdata/germany-insolvency-scraper)** / **[Czech ISIR](https://apify.com/regdata/czech-isir-insolvency-scraper)** - screen the owners you surface for insolvency.

Source the beneficial owners, then check them.

### What you can do with it

- **KYC / KYB & UBO discovery** - resolve the ultimate beneficial owners behind a Slovak counterparty.
- **PEP screening** - the `isPublicOfficial` flag surfaces owners the register itself marks as public officials.
- **AML source -> screen** - feed the owners you find here into an insolvency / debtor / adverse-media check.
- **Procurement & public-money due diligence** - see who ultimately benefits from a public-sector partner.

### Run it from code

```bash
## cURL - start a run and get the dataset back
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/regdata~slovakia-rpvs-ubo-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "searchMode": "byIco", "icoNumbers": ["35763469"] }'
```

```javascript
// Node.js - apify-client
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('regdata/slovakia-rpvs-ubo-scraper').call({ searchMode: 'byIco', icoNumbers: ['35763469'] });
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
```

```python
## Python - apify-client
from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("regdata/slovakia-rpvs-ubo-scraper").call(run_input={"searchMode": "byIco", "icoNumbers": ["35763469"]})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
```

### Integrations

Runs anywhere Apify does: call it from the **REST API**, **schedule** recurring UBO checks, pipe results into **n8n / Make / Zapier**, or use it from any **MCP client** (Claude, Cursor) via [mcp.apify.com](https://mcp.apify.com).

### FAQ

**Is it legal?** Yes. The RPVS is a public register open to anyone, read via its official open-data API. Protected personal data (e.g. date of birth) is already redacted by the register. Use the data lawfully for KYC/AML and due-diligence purposes.

**Do I need an account or API key?** No. No login, no key, nothing to configure - just an Apify account.

**How complete is the coverage?** The RPVS covers every company that receives public money in Slovakia (contracts, subsidies, licences) - which is why it is a genuinely public UBO register, unlike most EU beneficial-ownership registers.

**What does the PEP flag mean?** `isPublicOfficial` / `hasPublicOfficial` is the register's own marking that an owner is a public official - a first-pass PEP signal to feed into fuller screening.

**What export formats are supported?** JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML, or read live via the API.
