Company

The Company API returns an active Danish company's record by its CVR number — typically the id of a Companies suggestion. Each record found counts one look-up against your plan; a number whose check digit fails (400) or that is not an active company on the register (404) costs nothing.

The address

CVR points most companies at a DAR address: the same address, with the same id, as /adresser/{id}. Then address is that DAR address, read from our own DAR data, in DAWA's mini shape with its coordinates (x longitude, y latitude, WGS84), and source is dar. A company registered at a free-text, PO box or foreign address has no DAR id; its address is given as CVR registered it, with source cvr:

The address is the company's location address (beliggenhedsadresse), not where its post goes. If the DAR address cannot be read just then, the record still comes back, with the address as CVR registered it.

Fields

FieldDescription
cvrThe 8-digit CVR number.
nameThe legal name.
other_namesThe company's other names (binavne).
company_formThe company form: code and text, e.g. 80 Anpartsselskab.
statusactive. A ceased company answers 404.
register_statusCVR's own status text, e.g. NORMAL; a company under bankruptcy proceedings is still registered, and says so here.
start_dateThe day the company started.
industryThe main industry: its DB07 code and text.
addressThe location address (above); null when CVR has none.
reklamebeskyttettrue when the company has asked not to be contacted for direct marketing (reklamebeskyttelse).
data_as_atThe day the record was last confirmed against CVR. Changes reach the list each night.

Reklamebeskyttelse

A company with reklamebeskyttet true has asked, through CVR, not to be contacted for direct marketing. You must not use such a company's record for direct marketing — CVR's terms of reuse require it, and so do our terms. Using it to fill in or check an address, an invoice or a sign-up is fine.
