## 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.

## Finland Company Registry Scraper (Y-tunnus)

**📥 [Input](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/finland-companies-scraper/input-schema) · 📤 [Output](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/finland-companies-scraper/output-schema) · 💰 [Pricing](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/finland-companies-scraper/pricing) · ▶️ [Examples](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/finland-companies-scraper/examples)**

Search Finnish companies and pull a clean, structured record for every match. Look up a company by name or by its business ID (Y-tunnus) and get the business ID, current and historical names, company form, industry, status, addresses, website, trade-register standing, tax and trade register memberships and any insolvency, liquidation or restructuring events on file. No login, no API key and no proxy setup on your side.

Every record now carries a ready-to-screen distress flag: `hasInsolvencyProceedings` plus a dated `situations` list (bankruptcy, liquidation, company restructuring or business prohibition) and the trade-register status, so credit-risk and KYB teams can filter red flags without opening full details. An optional contact-enrichment add-on can attach a public business email and contact name to each result.

Point it at a single business ID for a full profile, or run a broad name or industry search and collect thousands of companies in one go. Results are returned as structured data you can export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull straight into your own workflow.

### Use cases

- **KYB and due diligence.** Confirm a Finnish company exists, is active, and get its business ID, legal form, industry, addresses and VAT status for onboarding and compliance checks.
- **Lead generation.** Build targeted lists of companies by city, industry or company form, complete with addresses and websites for outreach.
- **Market research.** Map an industry or region, size up how many companies operate in a sector, and track new registrations.
- **Data enrichment.** Turn a company name or business ID into a clean, structured profile inside your CRM or data pipeline.

### FAQ

**How do I look up one specific company?**
Put its business ID (Y-tunnus, e.g. `0112038-9`) in the `query` field. It is detected automatically and returns that single company's full profile.

**Can I search by name?**
Yes. Enter a full or partial company name in `query`. Add `city`, `companyForm` or `industryCode` to narrow the results.

**How many companies can I collect?**
Set `maxItems` up to 10000. The actor pages through the results automatically until it reaches your limit.

**What is a business ID / Y-tunnus?**
It is the unique identifier every registered Finnish company and organization has, in the format `1234567-8`. It is the primary key used across Finnish business records.

**Do I get contact addresses?**
Yes. Each record includes the visiting and postal address, the city and municipality, and the registered website when one is published. Enable **Fetch full details** for the complete address history. You can also enable the optional contact-enrichment add-on to attach a public business email and contact name to each result.

**Can I screen for insolvent or distressed companies?**
Yes. Every record includes `hasInsolvencyProceedings` and a `situations` list covering bankruptcy, liquidation, company restructuring and business-prohibition events with their dates, plus the trade-register status, so you can flag risk without opening full details.

**Is the data reliable?**
Records come straight from Finland's official open company registry and are returned exactly as published. Values that the registry does not provide are returned as `null`.

### Disclaimer

This actor retrieves **public records** published as open data by Finland's official company registry. You are responsible for using the data lawfully, including for KYB, due diligence and lead-generation purposes, and for complying with applicable privacy and data-protection rules in your jurisdiction. This actor is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any Finnish authority.
