Subsidiaries: preserve disclosed ownership intervals

For France, Belgium, Germany and the United Kingdom, subsidiaries can return a disclosed ownership interval in sharePercentageRange. Its lower and upper bounds preserve the range, with optional lowerInclusive and upperInclusive flags to distinguish “more than 25%” from “at least 25%”.Exact percentages continue to use sharePercentage. When only an interval is disclosed, no midpoint or endpoint estimate is returned as an exact percentage. When ownership is disclosed without a percentage, both fields are omitted and the company can still appear in the list.See Subsidiaries for the response format and how to apply ownership thresholds to a range.

🇲🇺 Mauritius: one canonical identifier, and search resolves the rest

Mauritian companies carry several numbers, and the ones printed on the documents you are likely to hold are not the register’s own key. /v2/company now accepts exactly one identifier for Mauritius: the CBRD File No., a register track letter followed by up to 6 digits, ^[A-Za-z]\d{2,6}$ (e.g. C117853, C61811).Anything else returns 400 Bad Request naming the expected format, immediately and without being billed. Previously an unusable identifier came back as a retryable source_unavailable, which read as “the Mauritian register is down”, so retrying looked like the right thing to do and never was.

Search resolves what `/v2/company` will not accept

/v2/search now takes the shapes customers actually hold and returns the canonical File No. as the result id:

what you have	search returns
`61811 C1/GBL`, an FSC global-business licence number	`C61811`
`217346GBC`, the File No. with its licence category appended	`C217346`
`221058`, the File No. without its letter prefix	`C221058`
`C07068818`, a Business Registration Number	the company’s File No.

Search first, then call /v2/company with the id it returns. That id is always the File No.

Always search first. Resolving an identifier through /v2/search before calling /v2/company is the recommended integration pattern for every country, and Mauritius is the clearest illustration of why: a Mauritian company carries several numbers, and the ones printed on the documents you receive are usually not the register’s key.A Business Registration Number (125473, or C07068818) is a search input rather than a company key. It identifies a business registration under the Business Registration Act, and a company with several registered businesses has several of them. Search resolves it to the File No., the same value identifiers.brn has always returned, so a single pass through search gives you a value you can store permanently.

We also corrected our own documentation: the File No. and the BRN were described as “the same number”, and they are not. RT Knits has File No. C067973 and BRN C07068818. Different numbers, different lengths, two separate lookups on the register’s own search. The response field is still spelled identifiers.brn for backwards compatibility, and it has always carried the File No.

🇨🇭 Switzerland: key persons now come from the cantonal trade register extract

Swiss legalRepresentatives used to be extracted from SOGC gazette publications — the stream of change notices ZEFIX republishes. ZEFIX has no structured officer roster, so that was the only machine-readable option, but a gazette is a history of amendments rather than a statement of who currently holds office, and it showed: officers were occasionally missed, and appointment dates were often the date of the wrong notice.Switzerland now reads the official cantonal trade register extract instead — the same document you can order through /v2/documents, whose person table is the register’s authoritative current state. All 26 cantons are covered, across both cantonal portal families. If a cantonal portal is temporarily unavailable, the answer falls back to the previous SOGC extraction rather than failing.

New: `otherKeyPersons` for Switzerland

Switzerland now serves the otherKeyPersons datapoint, on the existing che-company-data block — no new charge, and nothing extra to pay if you already request company or legalRepresentatives. It returns the people the register lists without signing authority:

the statutory auditor (Revisionsstelle / organe de révision), almost always an audit firm, returned with its own Swiss UID;
board members without signing authority, common on larger companies.

If ZEFIX publishes no cantonal extract link for a company, the datapoint returns no_document_available and is not billed, rather than returning an empty list.

Breaking: board members without signing authority moved to `otherKeyPersons`

If you parse legalRepresentatives for Switzerland, read this.

legalRepresentatives now means exactly “can bind the company”: it contains only people the register grants signing authority, and every entry carries a non-null representationMode. Board members the extract lists as “without signing authority” now appear in otherKeyPersons instead. On a large Swiss company that can move ten or more people between the two arrays.

New field: `corporateBody`, on every key person

Because that split is by signing authority, a board can span both arrays. Every legal representative and other key person now carries an optional corporateBody naming the body they hold a seat on — board, supervisoryBoard, management or audit — so you can reassemble a governing body in one pass:

const board = [...response.legalRepresentatives, ...response.otherKeyPersons]
  .filter((person) => person.corporateBody === 'board');

The field is absent for someone who sits on no body, such as an authorized signatory (Prokurist, fondé de procuration) who holds a power of attorney rather than a seat. It is optional and additive, so it breaks nothing; it is populated for Switzerland today and will roll out to other countries.Two standardized role values were added alongside it: Vice Chairman of the Board, and Chairman of the Board for other key persons.

Legal form codes are now GLEIF ELF v1.6

legalForm.iso20275Code now comes from version 1.6 of the GLEIF ISO 20275 Entity Legal Forms code list, published 19 February 2026. We were on v1.5, from September 2023.v1.6 adds 169 codes across 12 new countries and retires 18 whose legal forms were abolished. Two additions worth naming, because customers asked for them:

Spain, UFBW for a Comunidad de Bienes, and 2W1A for a Sociedad Civil.
Germany, PDNU for an eingetragene Gesellschaft bürgerlichen Rechts (eGbR). It previously came back as FR3V, the code for a plain unregistered GbR. The unregistered form still returns FR3V.

Other countries gaining codes include Austria’s Flexible Kapitalgesellschaft, Denmark’s Personligt ejet Mindre Virksomhed, the UK’s Private Fund Limited Partnership, and municipality forms in Norway and Sweden.Nothing was renamed, removed, or changed in shape. iso20275Code is the same optional string it has always been, and a code you have already stored stays valid — ELF never renumbers or deletes a code, it only retires it. If you parse legal forms today, your integration is unaffected and needs no change.

You can now see which version you are getting

The list version was previously knowable only by asking us, which is not a reasonable answer. Each country page and the country manifest behind /v2/catalog now name the exact edition their legal forms were mapped against, so it is something you can check rather than ask.For roles, that edition is ISO 5009 v1.0.0 of June 2023. That is not us lagging: it is the only edition GLEIF has ever published, and it did not change when the legal-form list moved to v1.6. One consequence worth knowing is that none of the 169 new legal forms has role codes behind it yet.

Corrections

Auditing our mapping against v1.6 turned up codes we were publishing that exist in no edition of the standard. ISO 20275 is a closed registry, so these were not near-misses:

The standardization guide gave 54RD for a German GmbH. The real code is 2HBR.
Its role table gave one ISO 5009 code for France, Germany and Italy alike. A role code is scoped to a specific legal form, so one code cannot serve three countries; the table now shows the real per-form codes and says which legal form each belongs to.
Romania, Singapore, Malta and around twenty US states carried placeholder codes in the pricing manifest and country guides. These never appeared in an API response, because invalid codes are dropped before they reach you, so responses do not change. What changes is that we no longer advertise a code we would not have delivered.
Where a jurisdiction genuinely has no code, we now publish none rather than invent one. Moldova is the clearest case: GLEIF has never assigned it any code.

Development environments

Every account can now create development environments: isolated sandboxes that answer for every country we support with generated data, bill nothing real, and never touch a register.An environment has its own API key, its own webhook endpoints and signing secret, its own request history, and its own members and roles. Create one from Developer in the app, or over the sandbox API — one per developer, or one per CI run:

curl -X POST https://api.sandbox.topograph.co/v2/environments \
  -H "x-api-key: sk_dev_YOUR_DEFAULT_SANDBOX_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "ci"}'

Development environments run on their own deployment, api.sandbox.topograph.co, with its own database and no access to any register. Swap the key and the base URL; everything else is identical: same endpoints, same request bodies, same response shapes, same webhooks. Development keys are prefixed sk_dev_.

It behaves like the real thing, including when it fails

The data is generated from each country’s own manifest, so identifiers are in that country’s real format, under that country’s real identifier keys, with its real legal forms, roles, activity codes and document catalog. The same identifier always returns the same company.Every public error code has a magic identifier — use SOURCE_UNAVAILABLE, INSUFFICIENT_FUNDS, ONBOARDING_TIMEOUT and the rest as the company id and you get that exact error, with the live message, the live HTTP status and the live retryability. There are also identifiers for delivery delays, dissolved and inactive companies, ownership structures, search result sets and match reasons, and the data shapes integrations actually break on: SPARSE, UNICODE, LONG_NAMES, MANY_RESULTS. RATE_LIMITED returns a genuine 429 with Retry-After.

Billing you can exercise, with virtual credits

Requests are priced at the real catalog rates and paid for from a virtual wallet, so you see what an integration would cost. Set the balance yourself and watch it deplete into a genuine insufficient_funds from the same billing path production uses:

curl -X PUT https://api.sandbox.topograph.co/v2/sandbox/wallet \
  -H "x-api-key: sk_dev_YOUR_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"balanceInCreditCents": 120, "autoRefill": false}'

Nothing reaches Stripe, and no card is ever charged.

Companies you define, and a clean slate

Generated data covers everything, which is the wrong tool when you need one specific company — to reproduce a bug, build a demo, or assert on your own matching logic. Define one, and everything you leave out stays generated:

curl -X POST https://api.sandbox.topograph.co/v2/sandbox/companies \
  -H "x-api-key: sk_dev_YOUR_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"countryCode": "FR", "company": {"legalName": "Acme Trading SAS"}}'

PATCH it and the next request returns the new version, which is what a monitoring integration needs to see a real change detected. POST /v2/sandbox/reset clears an environment’s history and restores its wallet between CI runs.

Coverage gaps are honest

A datapoint a country does not support fails in a development environment exactly as it does live. A sandbox that answers everything would let you ship an integration that breaks in production, so this one does not.Full details in the development environments guide.

The TEST country is deprecated

TEST keeps working and is not going away without notice, but development environments supersede it: they cover every country rather than one placeholder, in that country’s real formats, and they understand the same magic identifiers plus many more. New integrations should start with a development environment.

France: your NACE class is now the one INSEE assigned the company, and the NAF 2025 code is published

INSEE has published NAF 2025, the French implementation of NACE Rev. 2.1, and already assigns every active company its NAF 2025 code in Sirene ahead of the 1 January 2027 cutover. A NAF 2025 code is a NACE Rev. 2.1 class with one French letter appended, so the company’s exact 4-digit class is right there. NACE and NACE_REV21 now read that assignment directly instead of converting the old APE code, which no table can do as well: INSEE recodes each company on its actual activity, so a consultancy filed as 62.02A can come back as 73.12 (media representation) where a conversion would have said 62.20.The code itself is published under a new field, NAF_2025 (e.g. 86.93Y, with INSEE’s official label). It is present whenever INSEE has assigned one, which in a live sample was 99.5 % of active companies; the remainder are units still coded in a pre-2008 nomenclature, almost all ceased, which keep the correspondence-based NACE described below. Responses cached before this release keep their previous codes until they expire.

French activity codes resolve to a precise NACE class more often

The letter on a French APE/NAF code (8690F, 6420Z) is a national subdivision of the NACE class, and until now we dropped it before standardizing. That cost precision: a holding company declared as 6420Z came back as NACE 64.2, the group, because the bare class 64.20 splits into 64.21 and 64.22 in Rev. 2.1 and the code alone cannot say which.France’s APE codes are now resolved through INSEE’s own Table de correspondances NAF rev. 2 -> NAF 2025, which names a single NACE Rev. 2.1 class for 541 of the 732 French sub-classes:

APE code	Before	Now
`6420Z` Activites des societes holding	`64.2`	`64.21`
`8690A` Ambulances	`86.9`	`86.92`
`4329A` Travaux d’isolation	`43.2`	`43.23`
`1071B` Cuisson de produits de boulangerie	`10.71` (food manufacturing)	`47.24` (retail)

Eighteen sub-classes change: thirteen gain a full 4-digit class, and five were pointing at the wrong class entirely — in-store baking, ambulance-adjacent transport and three others move to the class INSEE actually assigns them. Where a sub-class genuinely straddles several Rev. 2.1 classes the group-level answer stands, so nothing gets less precise, and the register’s own APE code is still published in full under activities.NAFREV2 — now carrying INSEE’s official French label instead of a placeholder.

A 4-digit NACE class on every French company: `NACE_REV2`

Upconverting to NACE Rev. 2.1 has a hard limit that no mapping can fix: Rev. 2.1 deleted some Rev. 2 classes. 86.90 has no Rev. 2.1 successor of its own, so the most precise honest answer is the group 86.9. For 17 further classes the successors scatter across unrelated divisions and there is no Rev. 2.1 code at all, so activities.NACE was simply absent — including for construction of residential buildings, car sales and laundry.French companies now also carry NACE_REV2: the NACE Rev. 2 class the register itself recorded. NAF rév. 2 is the French implementation of NACE Rev. 2, so an APE code’s first four digits are that class — nothing is converted or guessed, and the key is present on every French company whose APE code we hold.

"activities": {
  "NAFREV2":    [{ "code": "8690F", "description": "Activités de santé humaine non classées ailleurs" }],
  "NACE_REV2":  [{ "code": "86.90", "description": "Other human health activities" }],
  "NACE":       [{ "code": "86.9",  "description": "Other human health activities" }],
  "NACE_REV21": [{ "code": "86.9",  "description": "Other human health activities" }]
}

Read NACE_REV2 if your parser needs four digits for every company; read NACE / NACE_REV21 if you need one revision comparable across countries. They are different revisions of the same classification, so do not mix them in a single field: 86.90 is not a Rev. 2.1 code and 86.9 is not a Rev. 2 class. Existing keys are unchanged.

Hungary: a fast mode at 0.50 credits

Hungarian company data previously had one path: the certified Cégkivonat, bought from the register per lookup at a variable price that usually landed near 5 credits. Screening at volume paid certified-document prices for answers that did not need to be certified.mode: "onboarding" now reads the stored company extract (Tárolt cégkivonat) that the Ministry of Justice publishes on Cégportál, at a flat 0.50 credits, and returns the same five datapoints: company, legalRepresentatives, shareholders, otherKeyPersons and establishments.

curl -X POST https://api.topograph.co/v2/company \
  -H "x-api-key: $TOPOGRAPH_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"countryCode": "HU", "companyId": "1809110530", "mode": "onboarding",
       "dataPoints": ["company", "legalRepresentatives", "shareholders"]}'

The register refreshes that stored extract periodically, not on every change, so onboarding mode is not authoritative. A recent filing may not appear yet, and no certified document is issued. mode: "verification" is unchanged: same certified extract, same price, still the default.

Hungary: ownership percentages are no longer estimated

Hungarian extracts describe member participation in words rather than as a figure. “A szavazati jog mértéke minősített többségű befolyást biztosít” means the voting right confers qualified-majority influence, at least 75%. Where the register publishes no capital contribution per member, sharePercentage is now omitted instead of being reported as a number derived from that wording.Shareholders are still returned with their identity; only the percentage is absent, and it is present whenever the register publishes enough to compute it. If you were reading sharePercentage for Hungarian companies, treat it as optional rather than assuming a value.The Italian register does not publish share capital on the company record. It files it with the shareholder list, which is a separate, separately priced record.In mode: "verification", company.capital for Italy is now returned when that shareholder record has been retrieved for the company, and omitted when it has not:

Your request	`company.capital`
`company` and/or `legalRepresentatives` alone	Omitted
`company` together with `shareholders`	Returned
`company` alone, within 24h of a `shareholders` request for the same company	Returned
`mode: "onboarding"`	Returned, as before

If you need share capital on every Italian lookup, add shareholders to dataPoints. You then get the ownership breakdown and the capital figure together, and the capital costs nothing on top of the shareholders block.Why we changed it: filling in that one field meant ordering the shareholder record on most Italian company lookups, at the price of a second block. Worse, a request that asked for both company and shareholders ran the two in parallel and ordered the same record twice. We have stopped ordering it speculatively.We deliberately did not close the gap with a third-party source. Share capital is available from aggregators that resell register data, and in mode: "onboarding" that is exactly where it comes from. But in verification mode every field we return comes from the register itself, and we would rather omit a field than quietly downgrade where it came from without telling you.Italian prices are unchanged. Full detail on the Italy page.

Workspaces can now turn off UBO data access

Every workspace can request ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) data, on by default. Turn it off per workspace with the new uboEnabled field on the workspace endpoints:

curl -X PATCH "https://api.topograph.co/v2/workspaces/acme-paris" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"uboEnabled": false}'

You can also set it when creating a workspace. A workspace with UBO access turned off gets datapoint_not_supported when ultimateBeneficialOwners is requested.Only keep UBO data access enabled for a workspace whose legal entity is AML-obliged. UBO data carries regulatory obligations under AML law, and we may revoke a workspace’s UBO access if the entity attached to it is not AML-obliged.

Activity codes now tell you which classification revision you are holding

A code like SIC 62012 or SBI 62010 means different things in different revisions of its classification, and until now company.activities gave you the code without saying which revision it belonged to. Every key that can answer that question now has a revision-explicit sibling:

"activities": {
  "NACE":       [{ "code": "62.10", "description": "Computer programming activities" }],
  "NACE_REV21": [{ "code": "62.10", "description": "Computer programming activities" }],
  "SIC":        [{ "code": "62012", "description": "Business and domestic software development" }],
  "SIC_2007":   [{ "code": "62012", "description": "Business and domestic software development" }]
}

The pair holds the same items. Read the revision-explicit key when the revision matters, the original when it does not.Nothing was renamed, removed, or changed. activities.NACE, activities.SIC and every other existing key keep exactly the contents they have always had. This is additive: if you parse activities today, your integration is unaffected and needs no change.Two revisions are fixed platform-wide and never vary by country: ISIC_REV5 (ISIC Rev. 5) and NACE_REV21 (NACE Rev. 2.1). A register that publishes NACE Rev. 2 is upconverted before we publish it, so NACE_REV21 is Rev. 2.1 even where the source is not.The national keys name whichever revision the register actually serves. We checked each one against the register rather than against the national statistics office, because the two routinely disagree — and in both directions. Several countries moved during 2025 and 2026: the Dutch Handelsregister converted every active registration to SBI 2025, Denmark’s CVR moved to Dansk Branchekode 2025, Finland’s YTJ to TOL 2025, and Greece’s nomenclature to KAD 2025.Where a register mixes revisions under one field, you get a key per revision rather than one averaged answer. Belgium stamps every activity row with its own version, so a company can return NACE_BEL_2003, NACE_BEL_2008 or NACE_BEL_2025; Croatia’s court register does the same, giving NKD_1994, NKD_2007 or NKD_2025, and a single company filed across revisions returns one key for each.And where a register genuinely does not record which revision a code belongs to, we publish no revision-explicit key rather than guess one. That is the honest answer for US NAICS (each state records the vintage current when the entity registered and never says which), Polish PKD, Romanian CAEN and Bulgarian NKID. Those keep their original key alone. The country pages and /v2/catalog list the exact keys each country returns, so you can see this per country rather than discover it from a response.One related correction, for Croatia only: codes the court register stamps as NKD 1994 are no longer folded into NACE. NKD 2007 is Croatia’s NACE Rev. 2 transposition and NKD 1994 is not, so treating a 1994 code as Rev. 2 produced a NACE class the register never declared.

Shareholders reconstructed from filings: substantially more accurate

In Belgium, France, the United Kingdom and Iceland the register publishes no structured shareholder list, so shareholders is reconstructed by reading the company’s filings — articles, notarial deeds, capital increases, confirmation statements — and folding them forward to today’s cap table. That reconstruction has been rebuilt.What changes in your responses

Holders we used to miss now appear. The most common failure was reading a company’s controlling-interest disclosure (a UK PSC entry, a beneficial-owner section) as if it were the share register, and reporting one holder at 100% when the share list named seven. Those sections are now used only to cross-check a cap table built from the share lists themselves.
Fewer invented figures. Where filings established that several people hold shares but never stated the split, the previous behaviour could distribute the total evenly between them. A holder whose stake the filings do not state is now returned by name with the amount fields absent, rather than with a plausible-looking number.
Partial cap tables now say they are partial. When part of the capital genuinely cannot be attributed from the filings — a transfer a jurisdiction never requires to be filed, a redacted deed, an undisclosed pool — you will more often see an explicit entry of "type": "aggregate" carrying that remainder, instead of a table that silently adds up to less than the company. Treat an aggregate entry as “these shares exist and the filings do not name their holder”.
Reconstruction is roughly twice as fast, so requests that include shareholders for these countries return sooner.

The response shape is unchanged; no integration needs updating.How we know it is better, and how it stays betterEvery change above is measured, not asserted. We built a frozen benchmark of real companies — the filing set captured exactly as it was, paired with a cap table verified by hand or against a register that publishes one independently — and the new reconstruction is scored against it on entity accuracy, on ownership percentages, and on whether it correctly declines to answer where the documents are silent. It beats the previous implementation on every one of those, on identical inputs.That benchmark now runs as a regression gate: cases include the specific mistakes customers reported to us, so a change that reintroduces one is caught before it ships rather than after. When a customer tells us a cap table is wrong and we fix it, that company becomes a permanent case in the set.

Italy: residence addresses, gender and nationality for individual legal representatives

Individual legal representatives of Italian companies now include the residence address the Registro Imprese files for them, along with their gender and, where the register publishes it, their nationality:

"legalRepresentatives": [
  {
    "type": "individual",
    "role": { "localName": "Amministratore unico", "standardized": "Director" },
    "individual": {
      "name": { "fullName": "Marco Rossi" },
      "gender": "Male",
      "birthDate": { "year": 1980, "month": 5, "day": 15 },
      "birthAddress": { "city": "Milano", "region": "MI", "countryCode": "IT" },
      "residenceAddress": {
        "addressLine1": "Via Giuseppe Verdi 8",
        "city": "Milano",
        "postalCode": "20121",
        "region": "MI",
        "countryCode": "IT"
      }
    }
  }
]

This covers company officers and sole traders alike, in verification mode. Birth places also improved: a representative born outside Italy now carries their real birth country in birthAddress.countryCode instead of defaulting to Italy.The fields are additive, so existing integrations parse responses unchanged. Responses are cached for 24 hours: a company you queried before the release keeps its cached response until the cache expires, then picks up the new fields on the next request.

Activity codes now identify the company’s main activity

Every activity code item in company.activities (and on establishments) can now carry isMainActivity: true, marking the code the register declares as the company’s main — primary, prevailing — activity:

"activities": {
  "NACE": [
    { "code": "62.01", "description": "Computer programming activities", "isAIInferred": false, "isMainActivity": true },
    { "code": "62.02", "description": "Computer consultancy activities", "isAIInferred": false }
  ]
}

Three things to know:

Absence means unknown, not secondary. The flag appears only where the register distinguishes a main activity — either explicitly (Belgium’s MAIN classification, Poland’s działalność przeważająca, Croatia’s pretežita djelatnost, Greece’s Κύρια, Hungary’s főtevékenység, Norway’s first næringskode, Singapore’s primary SSIC, and more) or because the register publishes exactly one code, which is its declared main activity (France’s APE, Finland’s main business line, Luxembourg, Spain, Ukraine, Serbia, and others). Registers that publish an undifferentiated list — the UK’s SIC codes, for example — carry no flag on any code.
Derived codes inherit it. When we derive NACE or ISIC from a register-native code, the derived code keeps the flag of the code it came from, so you can read isMainActivity on the standardized classifications without knowing each country’s native system.
At most one code per classification carries it, so activities.NACE.find(a => a.isMainActivity) is a safe way to pick one code per company.

Where activity codes are AI-inferred from an activity description, the single best-match code is flagged as the main activity and carries isAIInferred: true alongside, so you can always tell a register-declared main activity from an inferred one.The field is optional and additive — existing integrations parse responses unchanged. Each country page documents whether its register declares a main activity.

Singapore: the Business Profile document is available again

The ACRA Business Profile (trade_register_extract) is back in Singapore. It appears again in GET /v2/company/{id}/documents and can be ordered, and the shareholders and legalRepresentatives datapoints, which are read from it, resolve again with it.It was briefly unavailable earlier this week while we fixed a problem delivering purchased documents from ACRA’s portal. Orders complete reliably again.Search, company in onboarding mode, and the onboarding profile were unaffected throughout, since they come from ACRA’s open dataset (~2.07 million entities) rather than the portal.If you were billed for a Singapore Business Profile that did not arrive during that window, contact us and we will refund it.

Ask questions about coverage and pricing in plain English

The pricing pages now carry an assistant. Ask it what a French company profile costs, which countries return UBOs, how fast a German profile comes back, which legal forms a country recognises, or whether to use onboarding or verification mode for a signup flow.It answers from the live catalog and the documentation, not from a model’s memory of them, so coverage, prices and response times are the current ones. Every answer names the sources it checked, so you can see what it read before quoting a figure internally.It is the same catalog the Topograph MCP serves, so an answer here and an answer in your editor agree.Conversations are saved to your account. Close the tab, come back next week or on another device, and pick up where you left off.Sign in and open /pricing to try it.

Any company request can now be downloaded as a PDF extract

Add /pdf to a request you have already made, and you get a single-file company extract — profile, legal representatives, shareholders, ultimate beneficial owners, other key persons, establishments and the ownership graph, whichever of those you asked for:

curl --request GET \
  --url https://api.topograph.co/v2/company/253299d1-e8d0-4268-945b-f175f98bc114/pdf \
  --header 'x-api-key: <api-key>' \
  --output company-extract.pdf

It is free, and never billed again. The extract renders data the request already paid for, so it triggers no new fetch and you can re-download it as often as you like.

You do not have to wait for the request to finish

By default the extract renders whatever has arrived, matching GET /v2/company/{requestId}, which has always returned partial results while a request runs.That is safe because a partial extract cannot be mistaken for a complete one. It carries its own disclosure:

The seal reads PARTIAL rather than VERIFIED.
A Data completeness section lists every requested datapoint and whether it was included, is still being retrieved, or failed — with the reason it failed.
The X-Topograph-Data-Status response header carries complete or partial, so you can branch on it without opening the file.

If you would rather have an error than a partial file — for an archival export that must not be a snapshot of a half-finished request — pass requireComplete=true and get a 409 naming what it is still waiting on:

{
  "code": "extract_data_incomplete",
  "message": "The request is still running, so the extract would be partial.",
  "pendingDataPoints": ["shareholders"]
}

Only datapoints decide completeness. Documents are delivered as separate files and never appear in the extract, so a document still downloading does not hold the PDF back.The seal also stops overstating what it knows. It reads UNVERIFIED where a datapoint came from a non-authoritative source, rather than claiming verification for everything.See Company Data.

Poland now covers entities that are in neither KRS nor CEIDG

Polish company data came from two registers: KRS for legal entities and CEIDG for sole traders. An entity in neither was unreachable — most visibly a spółka cywilna (civil-law partnership), which holds a NIP and a REGON and trades normally, but is a contract between partners rather than a legal entity, so no entrepreneur register lists it.We now also read the REGON register (krajowy rejestr urzędowy podmiotów gospodarki narodowej), the statistical register kept by Statistics Poland. Entry in it is compulsory for every entity in the national economy, so it reaches what the other two structurally cannot.Two things change for a spółka cywilna, using its own NIP or REGON:

	Before	Now
Search	Returned only the individual partners	Returns the partnership itself, alongside its partners
`GET /v2/company`	`notFound`	Returns the partnership’s profile

The same applies to housing communities, foreign representative offices, schools and public-sector bodies.Data served this way is attributed with a new register code, wherever register codes already appear (dataSources.<field>.register, and source.register on documents):

"dataSources": {
  "legalName": { "type": "live_from_registry", "register": "regon" },
  "legalForm": { "type": "live_from_registry", "register": "regon" }
}

REGON is a statistical register, so it returns identity only — legal name, short name, legal form, registered seat, activity codes (PKD) and the registration and closure dates. It records no owners, representatives or beneficial owners, so a company served from REGON returns no management board and no shareholders. Beneficial ownership is unchanged and still comes from CRBR.REGON is queried only when neither KRS nor CEIDG holds the entity. Every company already covered is served exactly as before, from the same register, with the same fields — for anything in the court register, KRS remains richer and authoritative.One limit worth knowing: no register issues an extract for a spółka cywilna, so documents are still requested per partner, using that partner’s own NIP. See Poland.

The published OpenAPI spec now matches what the API returns

Several of you told us the spec at docs.topograph.co/openapi.json disagreed with the responses you were getting. Where a client is generated from that file, the disagreement is not cosmetic: it rejects calls, or discards values it was told could not exist. Every case we know of is fixed, and the spec is now regenerated and checked on every change, so it cannot silently fall behind again.

`POST /v2/company` documents `201`

Creating a request has always answered 201 Created. The spec listed only 200, so a strictly generated client rejected every creation response. Both codes are now documented, and they mean different things:

Code	When
`201`	A new request was created. Poll for the result with `requestId`.
`200`	You passed a `requestId` and got an existing result back. Nothing was created.

POST /v2/onboarding answers 201 on both paths and now says so. No behaviour changed on either endpoint; only the documentation was wrong.

Every datapoint error code is listed

dataStatus could return codes the spec never mentioned, including account_configuration_required, source_unavailable, no_data_available and budget_exceeded. The enum is now derived from our internal registry, so it cannot fall out of step again.Please still treat it as an open vocabulary: keep the raw string when you meet a code your client does not recognise, rather than dropping it. A code you cannot classify is more useful than no code at all.

A monetary amount can arrive without a currency

currency was marked required on MonetaryAmountDTO, and some sources do not state one. A German Gesellschafterliste, for example, publishes a bare Nennbetrag. A client following the schema to the letter discarded the amount without warning.currency is now optional. When it is absent, the figure is still exactly what the register published, so keep it:

{ "amount": 7484400, "formatted": "7,484,400" }

formatted is now always present, falling back to the bare grouped number when there is no currency to format against. amount remains a JSON number in every case: where we cannot express a value as one, we omit the whole object rather than publish a string.

Control nature uses `null`, not `"unknown"`

This changes a value in the response body. If you match on the string "unknown" for control.details[].nature, switch to a null check.

nature carries three distinct facts, and they matter in compliance:

Value	Meaning
`"direct"` / `"indirect"`	The register stated it.
`null`	The register stated the control, but not its nature.
Absent	The register said nothing about nature at all.

The middle case is common and real: the Belgian UBO register and the German Transparenzregister never disambiguate, and a UK PSC statement either carries an indirect marker or nothing. It used to be published as the string "unknown", which was not in the documented enum, so strict clients deleted it and could no longer tell “the register does not know” from “no such information”.This applies to requests you made before the change too. Re-fetching an older requestId returns null where it previously returned "unknown".

Fields no longer promised

Six fields were marked required that we cannot always deliver. They are now optional, which is simply an accurate description of what you were already receiving:company.countryCode, control.description, ultimateBeneficialOwners[].control, companyRelationships[].company, and, on requests, id and countryCode (both derived from the parent on a graph continuation).Two moved the other way, because they are always present: request.companyId and request.requestId.

What keeps it honest

The spec is generated from the same classes that build the response, and CI now fails if the published file drifts from them, if a route answers with a status code it does not document, or if a schema annotation contradicts the field it describes. Our daily suite additionally checks live responses across every country we cover against the published spec.

Country pages and the catalog now publish indicative response times

Every country now carries indicative timings for search, for each datapoint in each mode, and for each document. They appear under Speed on the country pages, in the price list workbook, and on /v2/catalog:

"performance": {
  "search": { "latencyMs": 2000 },
  "datapoints": [
    { "datapoint": "company", "mode": "verification", "latencyMs": 3000 }
  ],
  "documents": [
    {
      "documentType": "financial_statements",
      "latencyMs": 1000,
      "withProcessing": { "latencyMs": 30000 }
    }
  ]
}

These figures are strictly indicative and are not contractually binding. Actual response times vary with load, register availability and rate limits, how much the register holds on a company, and the mode you request. They are not a service-level commitment.What each figure covers:

Figure	Covers
`search`	Time until the result you went on to fetch appeared.
`datapoints[*]`	The source that supplies the datapoint, per mode.
`documents[*].latencyMs`	The document file, which is released as soon as it is fetched.
`documents[*].withProcessing`	The same document including conversion and, where it yields structured data, that extraction.

withProcessing is present only where processing costs real time. A French financial statement is about one second to the file and thirty to the parsed figures.A datapoint or document with too little traffic to estimate from is left out rather than guessed at, and lowConfidence marks a figure resting on a thin sample. A country with nothing to publish carries no performance block at all.

A succeeded datapoint now always carries its list, empty when the register published nothing

The list-shaped fields (legalRepresentatives, otherKeyPersons, establishments, shareholders, subsidiaries, ultimateBeneficialOwners) used to be omitted entirely when they had no entries. A datapoint could therefore report "status": "succeeded" with no corresponding key in the body, which was indistinguishable from a datapoint that never ran.They now follow one rule, in the API response and the webhook payload alike:

{
  "request": {
    "dataStatus": {
      "dataPoints": { "shareholders": { "status": "succeeded" } }
    }
  },
  "shareholders": []
}

Shape	Meaning
`[ … ]`	The records the register published.
`[]`	The datapoint succeeded and the register published no records.
Key absent	Not requested, still running, or `failed`.

succeeded with a missing key can no longer happen. If you branch on presence (if (response.shareholders)), note that [] is truthy — switch to a length check. Nothing changes for a populated list, and no key that was previously present has been removed.Worth knowing when reading an empty list: it means the register holds no such record, which is not always the entity has none. The Dutch KVK, for instance, registers a shareholder only when a company has a single 100% holder, so a BV with several shareholders returns shareholders: []. See Netherlands and Retrieve a company.

Every supporting document now names the register it was collected from

When data is derived from documents (reconstructed shareholders, and any other ai_analysis source), dataSources already listed which documents were involved. Each entry now also says where that document came from, via a register code:

"documents": [
  { "name": "K-bis", "date": "2025-01-14", "register": "infogreffe" },
  { "name": "Capital increase notice", "date": "2024-03-02", "register": "inpi" }
]

The codes are the same vocabulary as dataSources.<field>.register and the source.register carried by every document in availableDocuments. The attribution is per-document rather than on the parent source, because a single reconstruction routinely draws on filings from more than one register. register is omitted when the register behind a document isn’t known.This is additive. No existing field changes shape. See Shareholders Extraction.

Statutory filing dates now cover four more countries, read directly from the register’s document

company.statutoryFilings now covers the Netherlands, Jersey, Singapore and Portugal, alongside the register-published countries it already covered.For these four, the filing date comes from the register’s own document text rather than a structured field, since the underlying registers don’t expose one. See Compliance Signals & Statutory Filings for exactly what each country publishes, and how to tell these four apart from a register-stated date before building a compliance decision on top of them.

Monitoring now surfaces credential-gated datapoints instead of failing silently

A handful of datapoints require your own account credentials for a third-party register — most notably ultimateBeneficialOwners in Germany, sourced from the Transparenzregister, which by law only grants access to obliged entities making their own AML/KYC check. Previously, monitoring a company for one of these datapoints without the required credentials configured would fail that datapoint on every scheduled recheck with no visibility beyond the raw API error.POST /v2/monitors now returns a datapointNotices array when a monitor is created for an account missing a required credential — the monitor is still created, and every other datapoint is unaffected. Scheduled rechecks skip the affected datapoint rather than repeating a doomed fetch daily, and resume automatically once you configure the credential. You’ll also receive a one-time monitor.datapoint_blocked webhook when a datapoint becomes unavailable this way, and monitor.datapoint_unblocked once it resumes — these fire once per transition, not on every recheck.See Company Monitoring and Germany.

Statutory filing dates, and three new compliance signals

company.statutoryFilings is a new field carrying the periodic filing obligations a register holds a company to: the statutory annual accounts, and the confirmation filing that periodically confirms the company’s particulars are current. Each obligation reports the period last filed and the one next due.

"statutoryFilings": {
  "accounts": {
    "financialYearEnd": "03-31",
    "lastFiled": { "periodStart": "2024-04-01", "periodEnd": "2025-03-31" },
    "next": { "periodStart": "2025-04-01", "periodEnd": "2026-03-31", "dueDate": "2026-12-31", "overdue": false }
  },
  "annualFiling": {
    "cadence": "annual",
    "lastFiled": { "periodEnd": "2025-10-25" },
    "next": { "periodEnd": "2026-10-25", "dueDate": "2026-11-08", "overdue": false }
  }
}

Both obligations exist in nearly every jurisdiction under different local names, so this is a cross-country field rather than one register’s schema. It ships for the United Kingdom (the full calendar for both obligations), Ireland (the annual return, including the NARD), Guernsey (the annual validation), and 15 US states (the annual or biennial report).company.complianceFlags gains three signals alongside the two overdue flags: registeredCharges (charges or mortgages over the company’s assets), insolvencyHistory (insolvency proceedings in the company’s history, so it stays set after a company recovers) and liquidated. All three ship for the United Kingdom.One behavioural change worth reading. A compliance flag now appears whenever the register formally states the signal, carrying the register’s answer in active, not only when the answer is “yes”. So a UK company in good standing now returns "registeredCharges": { "active": false }, which is Companies House positively clearing it. An absent key means we hold no formal statement either way, and is not a clearance. This is additive: new keys appear with active: false, and no existing key changes shape. But if you treated the presence of a key as meaning “something is wrong”, switch to reading active.Every country’s manifest now declares exactly which flags and filing dates it populates, and whether its register ever states the negative, so you can tell “the register says no” from “this country doesn’t publish it” before you integrate.See Compliance Signals & Statutory Filings.

Italy: a wrong identifier now answers immediately

/v2/company for Italy accepts the Codice Fiscale, and only the Codice Fiscale: 11 digits with a valid control digit, or the 16-character personal code for a sole proprietor. The IT prefix, surrounding whitespace, dots and hyphens, and lowercase input are all accepted and normalized to the bare uppercase form, so IT01234567890 and 01234567890 are one company and one cache entry rather than two.Anything else now returns 400 invalid_request straight away, naming the expected format, and is not billed. The common case is a REA or CCIAA + REA code such as RM-1734032, which Italian register documents print next to the company name. Sending one used to take around 30 seconds and come back as “the register is temporarily unavailable”. A wrong identifier now reads as a wrong identifier.If you hold a REA code, a sole proprietor’s Partita IVA, or a company name, pass it to /v2/search: it resolves all of them to the Codice Fiscale to use on /v2/company. See Italy.

Lithuania now available

Company data for Lithuania is available on /v2/company and /v2/search, covering the company profile: legal-entity code, registered name, registered office address, registration date, legal form and legal status, plus registered share capital for the forms that declare one. Entities removed from the register are covered too, and report their removal date.Legal forms and statuses come from the register’s own classifiers, so you get the Lithuanian name, the official English translation, and a standardized Topograph category for all 168 forms and 30 statuses.Two things to know before you integrate:

Request Lithuania in onboarding mode. Data comes from the register’s daily open-data extracts, so a change filed with the register can take up to 24 hours to appear. There is no live register query, and the default verification path has no source to resolve.
Officers, shareholders and beneficial owners are not available. The register publishes only counts in its open data, never names: how many governing bodies an entity has, and how many participants split by resident or foreign and natural or legal person. No amount of processing turns that into a person, so these datapoints are not offered for Lithuania rather than returned empty.

One coverage note: the register anonymises the names of individual enterprises (IĮ), general partnerships (TŪB) and limited partnerships (KŪB) in its open data, because those names contain personal names. Around 13,500 entities are affected. They return their legal-entity code, address, registration date, legal form and status as normal, but their registered name reads as the bare legal-form label. You can look them up by code, not find them by name.See Lithuania for the full reference.

Send a test notification for a monitor

You no longer have to wait for a real change to validate a monitoring integration. Open a monitor in the dashboard and click Send Test Notification, or call the new endpoint:

curl -X POST https://api.topograph.co/v2/monitors/{monitorId}/test-notification \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "changeCategories": ["status"] }'

The event is built exactly as a genuine change notification is, with your own monitorId and metadata and the real company, so it exercises workflows that route on the metadata you set at monitor creation. The sample payload in the webhooks portal carries neither. You can pick the change category, or send the deactivation variant to exercise your cleanup branch. Your monitor is not modified.Note that a test notification is deliberately indistinguishable from a real one, so what you test is what you get in production. If your pipeline opens a case for every notification, a test will open a real case. See Company Monitoring.

One consistent rule for sole entrepreneurs and non-profits

Sole entrepreneurs (entrepreneur individuel, ЕТ, ditta individuale, ΑΤΟΜΙΚΗ, ФОП, …) and non-profits now behave the same way in every country:

legalRepresentatives always returns the person behind a sole entrepreneur (with the identity fields the register publishes), and the officers/board for non-profits.
ultimateBeneficialOwners returns the sole entrepreneur as the beneficial owner at 100% direct ownership where the country exposes a UBO datapoint. This is the AML-correct answer to “who owns this business”, even when the register requires no separate UBO declaration for these forms.
shareholders is never synthesized for entities that have no share capital. Instead of an empty array (or, in some countries, an invented 100% record), the datapoint now completes with a new machine-readable error code:

{
  "status": "failed",
  "error": {
    "code": "datapoint_not_applicable",
    "message": "Sole entrepreneurs have no share capital, so no shareholder record exists. The owner is returned under legalRepresentatives and, where available, ultimateBeneficialOwners.",
    "retryable": false
  }
}

datapoint_not_applicable is a definitive, benign answer: don’t retry it, and don’t treat it as an outage. When shareholders is the only datapoint of its billing block in the request, the block is automatically refunded.If you previously relied on a fabricated 100% shareholder for Bulgarian ЕТ, Hungarian egyéni vállalkozó, Ukrainian ФОП, or Irish business names, read the owner from legalRepresentatives / ultimateBeneficialOwners instead. The rollout is per-country (Bulgaria, Greece, France, Italy, Hungary, Ukraine, and Ireland first); countries not yet converted may still return an empty array for these entity types.Full behavior matrix: Sole Entrepreneurs & Non-Profits.

Metadata on monitors

POST /v2/monitors now accepts an optional metadata object: arbitrary key-value string pairs stored on the monitor and echoed back in monitor responses and in every monitor.notification webhook.

{
  "companyId": "932884117",
  "countryCode": "FR",
  "metadata": { "caseId": "case-12345" }
}

Use it to map webhook notifications back to your internal records without keeping your own monitor-to-case mapping. Company requests already supported metadata; monitors now work the same way. See Company Monitoring for details.Alongside this, the monitorId in monitor.notification webhooks now matches the id returned by POST /v2/monitors. Previously it carried an internal identifier that did not correspond to any monitor id visible in the API, so it could not be used for correlation. If you stored past webhook monitorId values, re-key on the ids from GET /v2/monitors.

Documents now name their issuing register

Every document returned by /v2/company now carries a source object identifying the register it comes from, in the same format as the dataSources section:

"tradeRegisterExtract": {
  "id": "1c932de4-4610-5506-b48d-4e62529d58e8",
  "name": "Extrait K-bis (certifié)",
  "source": {
    "type": "live_from_registry",
    "register": "infogreffe"
  }
}

The field appears on every entry in availableDocuments and on every downloaded document, across all countries. Use source.register to show the issuing authority to your users, or to tell registers apart in countries where documents come from more than one source.This is an additive change: no existing field moves. See Document Retrieval for details.

Company history, filing by filing

Two registers now expose their full change history as a document, joining the Netherlands, Italy, and France under documents.tradeRegisterHistory.

Germany: the Chronologischer Abdruck, the chronological register print listing every entry ever made against a company.
Ukraine: a certified extract from the state register, orderable like any other document.

Czech shareholders

Shareholders (společníci) are now returned for Czech companies. Add shareholders to your dataPoints on any /v2/company request, with ownership stakes as recorded in the Commercial Register.Coverage follows what the register publishes: limited liability companies (s.r.o.) list their members, while joint-stock companies (a.s.) do not publish a shareholder list and return an empty array.

Hungarian annual accounts

Annual financial statements for Hungarian companies are now available under financialStatements, sourced from the national filing portal.

Beneficial ownership in three more jurisdictions

ultimateBeneficialOwners now resolves for Cyprus, Slovenia, and Portugal. Each request returns the parsed owners list plus the official certificate from the local register as a ubo_extract document.These jurisdictions are fulfilled within one to three business days and carry a Manual badge on the pricing page.

Every request now ends with a webhook

The terminal company.updated webhook is now always delivered when a request reaches its final state. If you saw requests that looked stuck as pending because the closing webhook never arrived, that is fixed. Use it together with request.version (see week 26) to keep your own copy in step.

Ownership graphs cross borders

The graph datapoint now follows corporate shareholders into the country where they are incorporated, instead of stopping at the register boundary. A French company held by a German parent resolves that parent against the German register and keeps walking up the chain.Where a country has no shareholder coverage, exploration stops cleanly at that node, so the graph tells you where the trail genuinely ends.Ownership percentages are also reported only where the register states them. Holdings with no declared stake come back without a percentage rather than an even split across shareholders, so a number in the graph is always a number the register published.

The ownership graph says why a node stopped

Nodes that cannot be expanded now explain themselves, with a badge and a short reason such as an unknown country of incorporation or an identifier that could not be resolved. A branch that ends is now distinguishable from one that failed.

Italy: Fascicolo Storico

The Fascicolo Storico is now available on /v2/company. It records the history of share and quota transfers for an Italian company, filing by filing, which is what you need to reconstruct how ownership arrived at its current state.Request it the same way as any other document: ask for availableDocuments, then pass the returned id back in documents: [...].

Luxembourg: publications and filings

Official publications and register filings for Luxembourg companies are now retrievable, covering the notices and deposited acts published for each entity.

Portugal: publications

Portuguese company publications are now served through a dedicated index, with both a fast and an authoritative mode for company data.

France: several INPI accounts on one integration

AML-obligated entities using their own INPI credentials for un-redacted UBO data can now register several accounts under a single configuration. Requests rotate across them, with automatic failover if one is unavailable, so a single account’s rate limit no longer caps your throughput.

Activity codes per establishment

Establishments now carry their own activity codes, not just the parent company’s. A retailer whose head office is classified under management activities and whose branches are classified under retail now shows each correctly. Available for France and Belgium.

Germany: flexible register search

/v2/search now accepts German register references the way people write them: abbreviated court codes, partial register numbers, and the court and number in either order. HRB 12345 München and München HRB 12345 both find the same company.

Webhooks: ordering guarantee

Webhook payloads now carry request.version, an incrementing counter you can use to order snapshots. When two webhooks for the same request arrive out of order, compare version and keep the higher one. This complements the existing guidance to merge rather than replace on company.updated.

Cleaner response shapes

Three corrections to how optional data is represented, so strict consumers and generated clients behave predictably:

Person identifiers are documented as a flat object rather than an array.
Empty addresses are omitted entirely instead of returning an object of nulls.
Optional response fields are no longer marked required in the OpenAPI spec.

Faster US responses

Search and profile calls across a large set of US states are now several times quicker, with typical lookups landing in around two seconds.

The United States, coast to coast

Company data is now available for all 50 US states and Washington DC, each sourced directly from that state’s Secretary of State or equivalent business register. Texas, announced in week 18, was the first of the set. The rest are now live.

What you get

Every state returns the company profile: legal name, status, formation date, registered address, registered agent, and entity type. Most states also return officers and directors as legal representatives, and a Trade Register Extract bundled with the company data at no extra charge.Where a state issues official certificates (Certificates of Good Standing, Certificates of Existence, status reports, certified copies), they are available as orderable documents.

Fast and authoritative modes

Most states offer both. Onboarding mode answers in seconds from state-published bulk data, which is what you want behind a signup form. Verification mode reads the live register for an authoritative answer. Pick per request with mode.

Beta

US states ship as beta while coverage settles. Each state page carries the label, and the developmentStatus field on the country catalog exposes it programmatically so you can treat beta jurisdictions differently in your own flows.Every state has its own page under North America, listing accepted identifiers, available datapoints, and documents.

New jurisdictions

Antigua and Barbuda and the Marshall Islands are now available on /v2/company and /v2/search.

Filing-compliance signals

company.complianceFlags is a new field carrying signals the register reports about a company’s filing standing. Two kinds ship first, both for the United Kingdom:

"complianceFlags": {
  "accountsOverdue": { "active": true, "dueDate": "2024-09-30", "source": "companies_house" },
  "annualFilingOverdue": { "active": false }
}

Each kind carries active plus dueDate, since, and source where the register reports them. The shape is country-agnostic, so the same keys will be reused as more registers publish these signals. A flag is present only when its register reports it.

Belgium: coordinated articles of association

Belgian companies now return their coordinated statutes, the consolidated current text of the articles, under documents.articlesOfAssociation.

Better ownership and profile data

Denmark: beneficial owners are now also returned where the register records control by role rather than by shareholding, so more Danish companies resolve to a named owner.
Spain: companies can be found by hoja registral, and it is returned in company.identifiers. incorporationDate is now the company’s true constitution date, and a separate registrationDate carries the date it entered the register.
Belgium: sole traders and natural-person businesses now carry a legalForm, standardized as a sole proprietorship, instead of leaving the field empty.
Malta: /v2/search matches registration numbers written without a space, across every register prefix.
China: company data and shareholders are now separate blocks, so you can buy either on its own, and beneficial ownership is available.
Cayman Islands: a Director Details document is now orderable.

Check your balance from the API

GET /v2/billing/balance returns your account’s current remaining credit. Poll it to surface a balance in your own dashboard, or to alert before a batch run drains the wallet. This pairs with the low-balance notifications and auto top-up already available in the app.

Trials no longer switch themselves off

Reaching the end of a trial no longer deactivates an account or blocks API calls. Your integration keeps working while commercial terms are settled.

UBO certificates as orderable documents

For Croatia and Serbia, the official beneficial-ownership certificate is now surfaced in availableDocuments as a ubo_extract you can order on its own, without requesting the parsed ultimateBeneficialOwners datapoint.

German WZ 2025 activity codes

German companies now return WZ 2025 codes alongside the existing WZ 2008 codes. WZ 2025 is the current edition of the German Klassifikation der Wirtschaftszweige (the national implementation of NACE Rev. 2.1).Both appear under company.activities:

"activities": {
  "WZ2008": [{ "code": "62.01.9", "description": "Sonstige Softwareentwicklung", "isAIInferred": true }],
  "WZ2025": [{ "code": "62.10.3", "description": "Entwicklung und Programmierung von Anwendungssoftware", "isAIInferred": true }]
}

WZ2008 is unchanged, so existing integrations keep working. WZ2025 is up-converted from the WZ 2008 code using the official Destatis correspondence table. When a WZ 2008 code splits into several WZ 2025 codes, WZ2025 contains all of them. As with NACE and ISIC, German activity codes are inferred from the company purpose and flagged isAIInferred: true.See Germany for the full reference.

Poland: full board and shareholder names

Polish board members and shareholders now come back with their complete names, resolved from the register’s official extract rather than the abbreviated public listing.

Finland: companies awaiting registration

Finnish entities that exist with the tax authority but are not yet entered in the trade register are now returned, with a status that marks them as not yet registered. Useful when onboarding a business that has just been formed.

Spanish foundations now available

Spanish foundations are now covered on /v2/company and /v2/search. Foundations carry a NIF beginning with G, resolved through the Registro de Fundaciones (Ministerio de Justicia). You get the company profile, the governing board (patronato) as legal representatives, and a Foundation Register Extract under documents.tradeRegisterExtract.See Spain for the full reference.

Italian articles of association (Statuto) available

The Italian Statuto (articles of association) is now available on /v2/company, returned under the existing documents.articlesOfAssociation response key alongside France and the UK.The document is the company’s constitutional text as filed at the Chamber of Commerce, with every amending protocol indexed inside the PDF.

POST /v2/company
{
  "countryCode": "IT",
  "id": "04046761203",
  "dataPoints": ["availableDocuments"]
}

The document appears as documents.articlesOfAssociation with format: "pdf" and an id. Pass that id back in documents: [...] to order the PDF. The response includes a signed url for download. Delivery time is in line with the other Italian documents.

Bosnia and Herzegovina now available

Company data for Bosnia and Herzegovina is now available on /v2/company and /v2/search.The integration covers the unified Registar poslovnih subjekata BiH — a single portal serving all three entities: Federation of BiH, Republika Srpska, and Brčko District.

What’s included

Company profile: legal name, trade name (abbreviation), registration number (MBS), unique identification number (JIB/IDU), address, legal form, company status, share capital, registered activities (KD BiH 2010 / NACE Rev. 2), incorporation date, and branch offices as establishments.
Legal representatives: directors, general directors, procurists, executive directors — with signatory mode (sole / joint) and authorisation details where registered.
Other key persons: board members (član Uprave), supervisory board chairs (Predsjednik nadzornog odbora).
Shareholders: founders of limited liability companies (d.o.o.), partnerships (k.d., d.n.o.), sole traders, associations, and foundations. Joint-stock companies (d.d.) list only a reference to the share register — no individual shareholders.
Trade Register Extract: full printed PDF covering all 8 register sections (basic data, founders, management, capital, activities, branch offices, foreign trade, notes).

Identifiers

Bosnia uses the MBS (Matični broj subjekta) as its primary identifier. The format varies by sub-register: NN-01-XXXX-YY for private companies in Federation BiH and Brčko, NN-02-XXXX-YY for joint-stock companies, and N-XXXX for Republika Srpska. Hyphens are part of the identifier. The JIB (13-digit tax ID) is returned in the response but cannot be used for lookups.See Bosnia and Herzegovina for the full identifier and data availability reference.

Consistent identifier keys in `company.identifiers`

Every company’s registration numbers are now returned under consistent, local-language keys in company.identifiers, matching each country’s own terminology. Most countries are unchanged. A few had a key renamed to follow the convention.For the countries below, both the old and new keys are returned together until 1 September 2026. After that date, only the new key is returned. Update any code that reads the old key before then.

Country	Old key	New key
Belgium	`Numéro BCE`	`ondernemingsnummer`
Spain	`NIF`	`nif`
Italy	`Codice Fiscale`	`codiceFiscale`
Italy	`CCIAA`	`cciaa`
Italy	`REA Code`	`rea`
Austria	`EUID`	`euid`

The same canonical key now appears everywhere the number does: on the queried company, on related companies (officers, shareholders, subsidiaries), and in search match results. VAT is always returned under VAT.If you parse company.identifiers by key for Belgium, Spain, Italy, or Austria, switch to the new key before 1 September 2026. Each country’s accepted identifiers are listed on its page.

Portugal: two more documents

Portuguese companies now offer an uncertified Trade Register Extract (a compilation of the company’s register publications) alongside the existing certified extract, and Annual Accounts can be ordered on their own.

Faster onboarding mode in more countries

Onboarding mode, which answers in seconds and is what you want behind a signup form, now covers Cyprus, Greece, Latvia, Monaco, Poland, Portugal, France, and Sweden. Verification mode is unchanged and remains the authoritative path. Pick per request with mode.

Moldova now available

Company data for Moldova is available on /v2/company and /v2/search, covering the company profile, legal representatives, and shareholders, with activity codes mapped to NACE and ISIC.See Moldova for the full reference.

Activity codes now standardized to NACE Rev. 2.1 and ISIC Rev. 5

Every company response now returns activity codes on the current international standards: NACE Rev. 2.1 (the European classification in force since 2025) and ISIC Rev. 5 (the global standard). Previously we returned the prior revisions (NACE Rev. 2 and ISIC Rev. 4).

What changes

The activities.NACE array uses NACE Rev. 2.1 codes, and activities.ISIC uses ISIC Rev. 5 codes, for every country.
Where a register still publishes Rev. 2 codes, we upconvert them to Rev. 2.1 using the official Eurostat transition table.
A handful of Rev. 2 codes were split into several Rev. 2.1 classes (for example, holding companies moved from a single code to separate financial and non-financial holding codes). When a code splits, we return all of its Rev. 2.1 successors, so the correct class is always present.
The register’s own local activity code (NAF, ATECO, ΚΑΔ, CAEN, SBI, and so on) is still returned under its own key, unchanged.
activities.ISIC and activities.NACE are now always returned together for every country: when a register publishes only one of the two, we derive the other from the official correspondence. The pair is absent only when the register exposes no activity data at all.

What to check

If you store or match on NACE or ISIC codes, review your mappings against NACE Rev. 2.1 and ISIC Rev. 5. Some four-digit codes were renumbered (for example, computer programming moved from 62.01 to 62.10). See Data Standardization for how the mapping works.

Italian Visura Camerale now ships in Italian, with the full register content

The certifiedTradeRegisterExtract document for Italy is now delivered in Italian, with every section the Registro Imprese publishes. No request change, no price change, no delivery-time change.

New content in the PDF

Oggetto sociale (corporate object): the full legal scope of the company, verbatim from the articles of association.
Poteri di firma (board powers): the structured signing powers per officer, including joint vs. several authority and delegation rules.
ATECO classification: the code is now explicitly labelled “ATECO” alongside the NACE mapping.
Per-branch activity matrix: primary and secondary ATECO codes for every registered branch.
Statutory clauses: withdrawal, exclusion, and pre-emption clauses flagged where present.
Employee distribution: quarterly breakdown by contract type, working hours, qualification, and municipality, on top of the headcount.
Filing activity indicators: filings in the last 12 months, share transfers, address transfers, holdings.
Available document inventory: the list of fiscal years for which financial statements are available, plus indicators for the company file (fascicolo), articles of association (statuto), and other registered acts.
Quality and environmental certifications: SOA qualification, ISO and other quality certificates, environmental rolls.

How to request it

The request is unchanged.

POST /v2/company
{
  "countryCode": "IT",
  "id": "01234567890",
  "dataPoints": ["availableDocuments"]
}

The document appears as documents.certifiedTradeRegisterExtract with format: "pdf" and an id. Pass that id back in documents: [...] to order the PDF. The response includes a signed url for download.The new content applies to companies (società di capitale, società di persone) and sole proprietorships. Sole proprietorships do not have a corporate object or board powers, so those sections are absent for that entity type. The ATECO labelling fix applies to every entity type.

France: Historique des modifications

France joins the Netherlands and Italy under documents.tradeRegisterHistory. The Historique des modifications lists every change filed against a French company since registration.

Subsidiaries for France, Belgium, Germany, and the UK

The subsidiaries datapoint, introduced for Italy in week 18, now answers for France, Belgium, Germany, and the United Kingdom, and can be requested on its own without buying a full company block.

Latin-script names for Bulgaria and Greece

companyNameTransliterations now also returns for Bulgaria and Greece, alongside Ukraine. Search matches Latin-script queries against Cyrillic and Greek company records, and the field lists the canonical Latin spellings.

Pick documents by type, not by name

Document entries for France, the UK, and Austria now carry a documentSubType drawn from that country’s own filing taxonomy. Select on it instead of matching the free-text name field, which varies per filing and is not a stable key.

Latin search for Ukrainian companies

Ukrainian companies are registered in Cyrillic. You can now find them with a Latin-script query, and every Ukrainian company response carries a new companyNameTransliterations field with the canonical Latin spellings of its name.

Search

A search like Naftogaz, Kyivstar, or Pryvatbank now matches the Cyrillic-only company record. Both common romanisations work: the modern Ukrainian spelling (Naftohaz) and the legacy spelling (Naftogaz). Diacritic forms pasted from academic or EU sources match too.

New response field

companyNameTransliterations is a string array on both /v2/search results and /v2/company responses. It lists the deterministic Latin transliterations of the company’s legal and commercial names, generated with three standards (modern Ukrainian, legacy, and the diacritic academic form), deduplicated. Use it to display alternative spellings or to match against your own records.

POST /v2/company
{
  "countryCode": "UA",
  "id": "00131305",
  "dataPoints": ["company"]
}

The field is present for Ukrainian companies and absent for Latin-script countries. It complements the existing transliterate=true query flag, which romanises the whole response on demand. See Transliteration for how the two features differ.

Historical trade register extracts

Two new historical documents are available on /v2/company, returned under a new response key documents.tradeRegisterHistory.

Netherlands

Uittreksel Handelsregister Historie from the KVK. Lists every change ever filed against a Dutch company since registration: name changes, seat moves, board appointments and resignations, capital changes, status updates. Surfaced as tradeRegisterHistory in availableDocuments whenever KVK has a historical record for the company.

Italy

Visura Storica from the Italian Chamber of Commerce. Lists every amendment to an Italian company since its registration, including ownership changes, officer changes, capital movements, and address history. Always available for active Italian companies.

How to use it

POST /v2/company
{
  "countryCode": "NL",
  "id": "53781066",
  "dataPoints": ["availableDocuments"]
}

The historical extract appears as documents.tradeRegisterHistory with format: "pdf" and an id. Pass that id back in documents: [...] to order the PDF. The response will include a signed url for download.The historical extract sits alongside the existing documents.tradeRegisterExtract (current state only) and documents.certifiedTradeRegisterExtract keys, so you can request either or both depending on whether you need a point-in-time snapshot or the full change history.

Test slow deliveries without waiting for one

The TEST country now accepts DELAY_1M, DELAY_10M, DELAY_1H, and DELAY_10H as company identifiers. Each returns a normal result after the delay in its name, so you can exercise your polling loop, your webhook handling, and your UI’s pending state against a delivery that genuinely takes an hour.They combine with the existing GRAPH_* fixtures. Build your integration against the slow path before a real register makes you.

Ireland: shareholder provenance made explicit

Irish shareholders derived from annual return filings are now labelled inferred rather than read directly from the register, and the list states which fiscal year it covers. The data is unchanged; it is now honest about where it came from, so you can decide when to rely on it.

Topograph MCP server and Claude Code plugin

Topograph now exposes an MCP server, so coding agents and AI assistants can read the country catalog, search the docs, pull the OpenAPI spec, and price a scenario without you pasting any of it in by hand. Sign in with your Topograph account to connect it.There is also a Claude Code plugin that installs the server and a set of integration commands in one step. Point your agent at it when you are building against /v2/search and /v2/company and it will work from live coverage and pricing rather than from memory.

Coverage and pricing, in the open

The public pricing page now documents, for every country: which registers each data block draws on, how requests route by entity type, the identifiers we accept, and the full legal-form, role, and status vocabularies with their standardised mappings.Countries also carry a development status, so you can tell at a glance which jurisdictions are generally available and which are in beta. Capabilities we can deliver on request but have not shipped as self-serve are listed too, with a contact link.

Errors name the register that failed

When an upstream register is unavailable, the error now names it. Instead of a generic “the data source is temporarily unavailable”, you get the specific register, so your support team can tell at a glance whether the fault is upstream and your users can be told something meaningful.The register name is available both in the error message and as a source field on the error, so you can branch on it in code.Live register availability is published at status.topograph.co, and you can subscribe there to be notified when a register we depend on is disrupted.

Friendlier document downloads

Downloaded documents now arrive with a readable filename describing the document and the company, instead of an opaque identifier. No request change: the signed url simply serves a proper filename.

Interactive ownership graph

Two new request fields on /v2/company give you click-by-click control over how deep the ownership graph goes.

`graphInteractive`

Pass graphInteractive: true together with the graph datapoint to fetch only the entry company. Its direct shareholders are returned in the response: individuals as full nodes, companies as budget_truncated placeholders. Each placeholder carries a nodeId, a cost preview, and the depth at which it sits.Use this when you want predictable per-step cost and a deterministic UI: one fetch, one billing event, the rest of the tree visible only as continuation handles.When graphInteractive is set, graphMaxBudget is ignored.

`graphContinueFromNodeIds`

Pass an array of budget_truncated nodeIds from a previous response to extend the graph from those leaves. The new request is linked to its parent via mainRequestId; countryCode and id are derived from the parent automatically. Cost deduplication applies across the full request tree, so already-paid companies are not re-billed.If the parent request was made with graphInteractive: true, every continuation inherits the flag. Each chip click then expands a single level under the chosen node, with the new tier’s company shareholders surfaced as fresh budget_truncated chips.

Response field

graph.metadata.interactive is now returned alongside stoppedReason, companiesFetched, and companiesSkipped so you can tell whether a stored result was produced in interactive mode.

Texas (US-TX)

Texas company data is now available, with full coverage of both formal entities and sole traders, and two official documents.Authoritative verification via the Secretary of State. Verification-mode requests pull data directly from the Texas Secretary of State — the official corporate registry. This gives you authoritative entity status (In existence, Forfeited, Dissolved, Merged), the full untruncated officer record as filed, registered agent, assumed names, and formation details. Formal entities only (corporations, LLCs, limited partnerships, and other BOC-registered types).Fast onboarding via the Comptroller. Onboarding-mode requests use the Texas Comptroller franchise tax and sales tax systems. Covers the same formal entities plus sole traders. Returns officers, registered agent, establishments, activity codes, and state of formation. Results in seconds.Two official documents.

Information Letter — Secretary of State document confirming entity status, filing date, and registered agent. Formal entities only.
Sales Tax Permit — Comptroller record of permit status and outlet locations. Available for all permit holders, including sole traders.

Search accepts Taxpayer Number, Federal EIN, SOS File Number, or company name.

Sweden: sole traders now supported

Swedish sole traders (enskild firma) can now be looked up by personnummer. Pass the 12-digit personal identity number (YYYYMMDDNNNN, with or without hyphen) as the identifier in any /v2/company request.The profile returns personalIdentityNumber in identifiers, the correct VAT number derived from the personnummer, and all available company data from Bolagsverket. Available documents for sole traders are retrieved from the same document portal as other entity types.

New datapoint: `subsidiaries`

Surface the companies a queried company holds equity in. Each entry carries the subsidiary’s identifiers, ownership percentage, voting rights, number of shares, nominal capital held, and acquisition or end dates when reported.Add subsidiaries to your dataPoints parameter to include them in any /v2/company request.

Italy

First country to ship subsidiaries, sourced from InfoCamere. We return only current participations, picking the most recent filing per subsidiary and filtering out historical or dissolved holdings.

Italy: `establishments` now available

Branch offices and secondary seats for Italian companies are now retrievable from InfoCamere. The response includes operational branches, secondary headquarters, and foreign branches, with full address and activity description. Closed locations are excluded.

Beneficial ownership data for four new jurisdictions

The ultimateBeneficialOwners datapoint is now answered for Ireland, Portugal, Serbia, and Croatia. Each request returns the parsed beneficial owners list together with the official certificate from the local register, surfaced in documents as a ubo_extract.

Ireland

Beneficial ownership data sourced from the Register of Beneficial Ownership (RBO).

Portugal

Beneficial ownership data sourced from RCBE (Registo Central do Beneficiário Efetivo).

Serbia

Beneficial ownership data sourced from APR’s Centralna evidencija stvarnih vlasnika.

Croatia

Beneficial ownership data sourced from the Registar stvarnih vlasnika (RSV).

Delivery

These four sources are fulfilled within one to three business days. The pricing page surfaces them with a Manual badge so it’s clear up front when to expect the result.

Russia and Serbia now available

Two more jurisdictions are live on /v2/company and /v2/search.

Russia: company and sole-entrepreneur data from the state register, with establishments, legal representatives, and shareholders.
Serbia: company data from the Business Registers Agency, with establishments, legal representatives, other key persons, and shareholders.

See Russia and Serbia for the full reference.

See how a reconstructed shareholding was derived

Where shareholders are reconstructed from filings rather than read from a shareholder register, dataSources.shareholders now explains the reasoning: an overall summary naming the documents used, a limitations list stating what the reconstruction cannot establish, and a per-shareholder narrative on each entry.Use it to show your analysts why a percentage is what it is, and to decide when a figure needs a human check before it drives a compliance decision. The same detail is available for beneficial owners and for each node of the ownership graph.

New document coverage across nine countries

Articles of association and annual accounts are now available on more jurisdictions, each retrieved from the country’s official register.

United Kingdom

Articles of association now include amendments filed after incorporation, not just the original filing. Special resolutions that change the articles land in articlesOfAssociation. Annual accounts unchanged.

France

Articles of association (statuts) from INPI are now classified directly from the French register’s official document dictionary. Statute filings, translations, cross-border merger statutes, and updated statute drafts all route into articlesOfAssociation. The same treatment applies to each component of the annual accounts.

Slovakia

Annual financial statements (účtovné závierky) for every registered entity since 2009, from the Slovak financial statements register.

Estonia

Annual reports (majandusaasta aruanne) for Estonian entities are now surfaced in financialStatements. Filings are available since 2010.

Greece

First document integration for Greece: both financialStatements and articles of association (καταστατικό) from the GEMI publicity portal.

Ukraine

Annual financial statements (Фінансова звітність підприємств) for Ukrainian legal entities, covering 2021 to 2025.

Slovenia

Two new sources from AJPES:

Articles of association (akt o ustanovitvi / statut) from the eObjave section.
Annual reports (letno poročilo) from JOLP.

Czech Republic

Annual reports and articles of association from the Sbírka listin (Collection of Deeds) of the Czech Commercial Register. Covers every filing type available on justice.cz, surfaced in financialStatements and articlesOfAssociation.

Ireland

Company constitutions filed with the Irish Companies Registration Office (CRO), returned in articlesOfAssociation. Requesting a constitution triggers retrieval from CRO and returns the PDF like any other document.

Germany: paid Hinterlegungen now retrievable

Voluntary §326 HGB financial-statement deposits filed by Kleinstkapitalgesellschaften are now part of the standard availableDocuments response. Requesting one returns the PDF like any other German document. See the live pricing page for current pricing.

Retrieve a request with a GET

GET /v2/company/{requestId} returns a stored request result. Use it to poll a request to completion and to refresh expired signed document URLs, without rebuilding the original POST body.The previous approach of POSTing {"requestId": "..."} still works, so nothing breaks. The GET is simply the natural shape for reading a result you already created.

Onboarding mode has a firm deadline

Onboarding mode now enforces a 10 second budget per datapoint, end to end. A datapoint that cannot answer in time returns onboarding_timeout instead of holding your signup form open.This makes onboarding latency predictable by design. When you need completeness over speed, use verification mode, which has no such cap.

France: Avis de situation INSEE

Every active French company now carries an Avis de situation INSEE in availableDocuments, generated on demand from the national business directory. It confirms the company’s registered identity, address, and activity, and is bundled with the French company data.

Isle of Man now available

Company data for the Isle of Man is available on /v2/company and /v2/search, with a Trade Register Extract alongside the company profile.

Germany: your own Transparenzregister credentials

AML-obligated entities can now connect their own Transparenzregister account to unlock German beneficial ownership data, the same way the French INPI credential flow works below. Add your register credentials in the app and UBO requests for Germany use them automatically.

Latin-script responses for non-Latin countries

Getting company data from Bulgaria, Ukraine, Greece, China, or Hong Kong? You can now ask for the response in Latin characters.Add transliterate=true to any /v2/search or /v2/company call and the company names, addresses, officer names, and activity descriptions come back romanized. Useful when your CRM, KYC system, or spreadsheet export only handles Latin text.The flag does not change retrieval or billing. It is a presentation option applied to the response on the way out.See the Transliteration guide to learn more.

France: customer INPI credentials for AML-obligated entities

AML-obligated entities with their own INPI account carrying ROLE_RBE_BENEFICIAL_OWNERS and ROLE_RBE_BENEFICIAL_OWNERS_PDF can now provision those credentials on their Topograph account to unlock the un-redacted INPI dataset.What it grants access to, under your credentials only:

ultimateBeneficialOwners with full date of birth (day included), full residence address (street line), nationality, gender, and place of birth. The default Topograph service account returns these fields RGPD-redacted.
ubo_extract synthesis PDF with the richer INPI content reserved for RBE-authorised accounts, typically around 20% larger than the default PDF.

Results fetched under your credentials are isolated to your account. No other account can read or observe them. Switching regimes or rotating credentials always produces a fresh INPI fetch, so stale data is never served across boundaries.Other France data (company data, legal representatives, shareholders, actes, bilans, trade register extract) is unaffected. The INPI RBE role set only changes UBO-related responses.To provision, contact support@topograph.co. See the France country page for details.

Billing Notifications

Topograph now sends alerts for billing events through email and webhooks: low balance warnings, high-usage alerts, and auto top-up outcomes. Give your finance and operations teams cost visibility and governance over Topograph usage without polling the API for balance and spend.Configure everything from the new Billing page in your dashboard or from the REST endpoints at /v2/billing/notifications.

Two independent spend budgets

High-usage watches run as two parallel passes, both firing on every billable request:

Account-wide budget: total spend across every workspace in your account. Fires once per account when the aggregate crosses your threshold. Use it as a top-line guardrail that catches runaway usage regardless of which team or integration is driving it.
Per-workspace budget: each workspace is evaluated individually against a shared set of defaults. Each workspace gets alerts scoped to its own spend, so a single busy workspace doesn’t drown out the rest.

A single spend spike can trip both passes at once. You get a distinct account-level event and a workspace-level event, with a scope field on the webhook payload so your alerting stack can route the two categories to different channels (for example, account-wide alerts to finance, per-workspace alerts to the team that owns the workspace).

Per-workspace overrides

A workspace running heavy batch work can override its budget in isolation while every other workspace keeps the account defaults. Override the master toggle, the channel routing, the rolling period, or the tier values from the Billing page, or via PATCH /v2/billing/notifications/workspaces/{id}/config. Overridden workspaces show an explicit overriding badge in the UI so you can see at a glance which ones have drifted from the account policy.

Off by default, admin-controlled

Every notification kind ships off on new accounts. Nothing fires until an admin opts in, so rolling billing notifications out to an established organisation does not surprise anyone with unexpected emails on day one. Enabling a kind seeds it with one starter warning tier at a sensible value; add critical, depleted, or extra high-usage bands from the tier editor as your policy matures.

Webhook integration

Four new event types are delivered through the same webhook setup as your existing company.updated webhooks. Same signature verification, same retry logic, same signing secret, so adding billing alerts to your ops stack is a matter of subscribing to the new event types in your existing endpoint:

billing.low_balance.triggered
billing.high_usage.triggered (carries scope: "global" | "workspace" so you can route the two budgets independently)
billing.auto_topup.succeeded
billing.auto_topup.failed

Full audit trail

Every fire records a row in the Recent Notifications card on the Billing page. Click a row to inspect the full webhook payload, workspace attribution, per-channel delivery status, and the exact threshold that was crossed. Programmatic access via GET /v2/billing/notifications/recent returns the same shape, so you can forward events to your observability pipeline alongside company-data webhooks.

Getting started

Open the Billing page in your Topograph dashboard.
Expand Notification preferences and flip on the kinds you want.
Adjust tiers, period, and channels in place, or leave the starter defaults.
If you use webhooks, subscribe the four new event types in your existing endpoint.

Full threshold semantics, dedup key shapes, and rearm behaviour are documented in the Billing notifications guide.

Data Product Model

New Data Vocabulary

The API now supports granular datapoints instead of the bundled companyProfile:

company: company information (name, address, status, legal form, activities)
legalRepresentatives: directors, managers, board members
shareholders: shareholder structure and ownership percentages
ultimateBeneficialOwners: beneficial owners (unchanged)

Two additional datapoints are now available:

otherKeyPersons: board members, auditors, compliance officers
establishments: branch offices and secondary locations

The legacy companyProfile datapoint still works and maps to company + legalRepresentatives. No migration required.

Monitoring expanded to 6 new countries

Monitoring is now automatically available for all countries with zero-cost, fixed-price, authoritative data sources. Countries with variable or dynamic pricing are excluded. Newly supported:

Bulgaria (BG)
Greece (GR)
Iceland (IS)
Jersey (JE)
Netherlands (NL)
Slovenia (SI)

Existing monitors also now fetch richer data: all eligible zero-cost datapoints (shareholders, UBOs, establishments, etc.) are automatically included in monitoring requests.

Retrieval Modes

New mode parameter replaces fast and authoritative:

mode: "verification" (default): picks the authoritative registry source
mode: "onboarding": picks the cheapest fast source for form prefill and screening

The fast and authoritative parameters are deprecated but still accepted.

`/v2/onboarding` Deprecated

Use POST /v2/company with mode: "onboarding" instead. Same response format, same speed. See the migration guide.

Authoritative Flag in Response

dataStatus.dataPoints now includes authoritative: true/false so you know whether data came from an official registry.

{
  "dataStatus": {
    "dataPoints": {
      "company": { "status": "succeeded", "authoritative": true }
    }
  }
}

Block-Based Pricing

Each data block has a fixed price per country with 24-hour deduplication. Requesting the same block for the same company within 24 hours is free. Some documents (trade register extract, UBO extract) are included free with their corresponding data block.The /v2/pricing endpoint now returns a blocks array showing per-mode pricing and block grouping.

Budget Cap

New maxBudget parameter (in credit cents) lets you cap the cost of a request. Billable blocks are applied in priority order: company, legal representatives, UBOs, then shareholders. Datapoints tied to blocks that do not fit the budget are dropped with a budget_exceeded status instead of failing the entire request.

Countries

🇺🇦 Ukraine

New Country — Ukraine IntegrationUkraine is now fully supported, sourcing all data from the Unified State Register (ЄДР — Єдиний державний реєстр), the official registry of legal entities, individual entrepreneurs, and foreign entity subdivisions operated by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine.

Search — By EDRPOU code (exact match, all entity types) or RECORD number (individual entrepreneurs), and by company name in Cyrillic or Latin script
Three datasets in one integration:
- Legal entities (UO) — All registered companies: LLCs, joint-stock companies, cooperatives, nonprofits, state bodies, farm enterprises, and 50+ other legal forms
- Individual entrepreneurs (FOP) — Фізичні особи-підприємці, with full support for the unique FOP RECORD identifier scheme (prefixed as FOP-{RECORD} to avoid collision with EDRPOU codes)
- Foreign entity subdivisions (FSU) — Representative offices and branches of foreign companies, with parent company details including country code and foreign registry code
Company profile — Legal name, legal form (50+ types, standardized), status (active, in dissolution, closed with reason and date), registration date, share capital (legal entities), and commercial names
Shareholders — Founders for legal entities (individual and corporate, with nominal capital); self-ownership for individual entrepreneurs (100%); foreign parent company for FSU subdivisions
Legal representatives — Directors and representatives from the EDR signatories section; individual entrepreneurs are self-represented (role: Owner)
5.8M+ individual entrepreneur records — The FOP dataset is one of the largest in our platform, covering registrations going back to the 1990s

For detailed information, see our Ukraine documentation.

Who can sign, and alone or together

Legal representatives now carry representationMode, stating whether an officer can bind the company alone (sole) or only jointly with others (joint). Where the register publishes the detail, minimumSignatories and namedCoSigners are returned too.This is the field you need to know whether one signature on a mandate is actually sufficient. Available for Germany, Switzerland, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, and Estonia, wherever the register states it.

Hungary: sole traders

Hungarian sole traders from the individual-entrepreneur register are now covered. Look them up by registration number or tax ID.

Malta: shareholders

Maltese companies now return shareholders, with ownership percentages.

Countries

🇧🇪 Belgium

Legal Representative Enrichment (Best Effort)When agenticEnrichment: true is passed, the system attempts to enrich legal representative details from eJustice publications (Moniteur Belge). This is best effort. Not all fields are guaranteed, as enrichment depends on which publications are available and what data they contain.

Enriched fields: birth date, nationality, residence address (geocoded)
New enriching datapoint status: indicates enrichment is in progress after base data has been retrieved
Pricing: fixed 50 cents per request, charged only if at least one field was enriched
Belgium only for now

🇧🇬 Bulgaria

Full Integration: Bulgarian Trade RegisterBulgaria is now fully supported with company data from the Trade Register (Търговски регистър), operated by the Registry Agency (Агенция по вписванията).

Documents: Trade Register Extract (always available), Articles of Association, Financial Statements, and 25+ additional conditional document types
Activity Codes: NKID/NACE/ISIC classification chain, all deterministic (no AI inference)

For detailed information, see our Bulgaria documentation.

🇭🇺 Hungary

Sole Trader (Egyéni Vállalkozó) CoverageHungary now covers sole traders in addition to commercial companies, sourcing data from a second registry, the NAV EVNY (Egyéni Vállalkozók Nyilvántartása), operated by the Hungarian Tax Authority.

Search: Sole traders are searchable by registration number (8 digits) or tax number (8 digits). An 8-digit query automatically searches both OCCSZ and EVNY in parallel, with deduplication.
Company profile: Full sole trader profile including legal name, status, address, activity codes (6-digit TEÁOR → NACE → ISIC), branch offices, and registration date. The sole trader is automatically mapped as the legal representative (Owner) and 100% shareholder.
Documents: EVNY extract available as a PDF (screenshot-based), included free with the profile.
Status mapping: Supports all EVNY statuses: operating (Működő), dormant (Szünetelő), authority-suspended (Felfüggesztett), and terminated (Megszűnt), with proper active flag and closure reason mapping.
Pricing: Sole trader profiles use fixed pricing only (no variable TRE cost). Budget precheck adapted accordingly.

API

Representation Mode for Legal RepresentativesLegal representatives now include a representationMode field indicating how a representative can bind the company. The field specifies whether signing authority is sole (can act alone) or joint (must act with others), with optional minimumSignatories for joint representation or namedCoSigners for joint representation with specific named individuals.Available for: Hungary (HU), Latvia (LV), Greece (GR), Germany (DE), Switzerland (CH), Finland (FI), Estonia (EE)

Hungary: Extracted from TRE §13 “együttes”/“önálló” markers (deterministic)
Latvia: Mapped from UR API rightsOfRepresentation.type (deterministic)
Greece: Enriched from GEMI boolean flags for ΑΕ companies
Germany, Switzerland, Finland: AI-extracted from trade register documents (including named co-signers when specified)
Estonia: Sourced from the RIK esindus_v1 endpoint — sole when the person holds exclusive representation rights (ainuesindusoigus_olemas: JAH). Not set for EI or EI TEA (unknown/cannot determine)

Countries

🇭🇺 Hungary

Fixed company status detection for deleted companies. Companies with a deletion date (“Törlés hatálya”) in Section 1 of the Trade Register Extract are now correctly identified as closed. Previously, these companies were incorrectly reported as active because only quoted status markers in the company name were checked. The fix parses the deletion date and reason (“Megjegyzés”) from the TRE general data section, mapping deletion reasons to the appropriate closure reason (átalakulás → Merger, felszámolás → Bankruptcy, kényszertörlés → Administrative Dissolution, végelszámolás → Voluntary Dissolution).

🇸🇮 Slovenia

New Country: Slovenia IntegrationWe’ve added full support for Slovenia, sourcing all data from AJPES (Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for Public Legal Records and Related Services), the official operator of the Slovenian Business Register (ePRS).

Search: Full-text search by company name, registration number, or tax number across 290,000+ entities
Company profile: Legal name, status, legal form, registration date, address, share capital, and legal representatives
Shareholders: Individual and corporate shareholders with equity interests and ownership percentages (d.o.o. companies)
Trade Register Extract: Digitally signed PDF from AJPES, available for all court-registered entities
Onboarding profile: Fast company lookup (~1s) from synchronized PRS Open Data

Shareholder data is only available for d.o.o. (limited liability) companies. Joint-stock companies (d.d.) do not disclose shareholders through the registry as shares are publicly traded. The Slovenian UBO Register (RDL) is restricted to authorized entities and is not currently accessible.

For detailed information, see our Slovenia documentation.

🇪🇪 Estonia

Partnership shareholders: General partnerships (TÜ) and limited partnerships (UÜ) now return shareholders. Partners (TOSAN/UOSAN/EUSOS/EUSOS2) are extracted from kaardile_kantud_isikud and returned as shareholders alongside their legal representative entries. Limited partners include their capital contribution (nominalCapitalHeld). Partners holding multiple roles (e.g. EUSOS + UOSAN) are deduplicated by registry code, keeping the entry with capital contribution data.
Nominal capital precision fix: Shareholder nominalCapitalHeld amounts for OÜ/AS companies now preserve full decimal precision (e.g. 10931254.40 instead of being truncated to 10931254).
Consistent entity IDs: All person mappers (legal representatives, shareholders, other key persons) now use isikukood_registrikood (registry code for companies, personal ID for individuals) instead of the internal RIK record ID (kirje_id). This ensures the same entity has a consistent ID across all sections of the response. Falls back to kirje_id for foreign companies that lack a local registry code.
Birth date extraction: All individual persons (legal representatives, shareholders, other key persons) now include birthDate. For Estonian nationals, the date is derived from the 11-digit personal identification code (isikukood). For foreign nationals, it is read from the synniaeg field.
Country of residence: Individual shareholders now include residenceAddress.countryCode when the registry provides the aadress_riik field (common for foreign shareholders).
Foreign company country codes: Corporate shareholders and legal representatives registered abroad now show their actual country of registration (e.g. GB, SE, CYM) instead of defaulting to EE. Foreign registration numbers (valis_kood) are also used as the company ID.

New Feature

Workspaces: Per-Client Usage Tracking & Rebilling

We’ve introduced Workspaces, a new feature that lets you split API usage across sub-accounts, clients, or departments for easy cost tracking and rebilling.

Tag requests: Send an x-topograph-workspace-id header with any /v2/company request (including mode: "onboarding") to attribute usage to a specific workspace. The legacy /v2/onboarding route remains workspace-taggable for backward compatibility.
Manage workspaces: Full CRUD API to create, update, list, and delete workspaces, each with an associated legal entity name
Usage reporting: New GET /v2/workspaces/usage endpoint returns per-workspace credit consumption with catalog-item breakdown, filterable by date range
Default workspace: Requests without an x-topograph-workspace-id header are automatically tagged to the default workspace (fully backward compatible)
Dashboard support: The billing dashboard now shows a workspace column and supports “Split by Workspaces” in the usage graph

This is ideal for resellers rebilling clients, multi-entity organizations allocating costs, and platforms tracking per-tenant consumption.See the full Workspaces documentation and API reference.

Countries

🇱🇻 Latvia

Onboarding Profile & Fast Search: Open Data Batch PipelineLatvia now has synchronized search and an onboarding profile powered by open data from data.gov.lv (~480K entities), providing fast company lookups.

Fast search: Fast search by company name or registration number, with register fallback for supplementary results
Onboarding profile: Rich company data from synchronized source data (~1s): legal form, status, capital, legal representatives, shareholders (SIA + AS), and ultimate beneficial owners
7 data sources: Daily CSV sync: company register, officers, members, stockholders, beneficial owners, equity capitals, and areas of activity
Address geocoding: Addresses are geocoded with skip-if-unchanged optimization for subsequent refreshes
Incremental updates: Only companies with actual data changes are reprocessed on refresh runs

The onboarding profile does not include NACE/ISIC activity codes or AI enrichment; use the full company profile for those. Shareholders of type DEPOSITORY (Nasdaq CSD nominee holdings for listed companies) are excluded.

For detailed information, see our Latvia documentation.

Countries

🇪🇪 Estonia

Expanded UBO control type coverage: Added support for 5 additional RIK control type codes (K, C, S, Z, Y), bringing the total from 4 to all 9 codes defined by the Estonian Money Laundering Prevention Act (RahaPTS §9). Notably, indirect ownership (K) is now correctly mapped with nature: indirect, and appointment rights (Y) have an explicit mapping instead of relying on the default fallback.

🇰🇾 Cayman Islands

New Country: Cayman Islands IntegrationWe’ve added full support for the Cayman Islands, sourcing all data from the General Registry (CIREGISTRY), the official registrar of companies, partnerships, and trusts.

Search - Name-based entity search across 45,000+ registered entities
Company profile - AI-extracted from the Detailed Search document: legal name, status, legal form, incorporation date, registered office, directors, and shareholders (when disclosed)
Three document types - Detailed Search, Company Details, and Director Details, all delivered as PDF.
Fast search - Search sessions are prepared ahead of time to reduce latency.
Balance monitoring - Internal balance monitoring protects document availability.

The Cayman Islands does not assign numeric registration numbers. Entity names are used as identifiers (base64-encoded in API responses). Exempted companies (the most common entity type) are not required to publicly disclose shareholders.

For detailed information, see our Cayman Islands documentation.

Breaking Changes

🔖 `statusDetailsBeta` renamed to `statusDetails`

The status.statusDetailsBeta field has been promoted to status.statusDetails and is now considered stable. The Beta suffix has been removed.Action required: Update any code reading statusDetailsBeta to statusDetails.All existing values (status, closureReason, closureDate, insolvencyStartDate, additionalInfo) and their semantics are unchanged. A new SPLIT value has been added to closureReason to cover corporate splits.See the Company Status guide for full documentation on the status model, all enum values, country coverage, and usage patterns.

Countries

🇷🇴 Romania

Onboarding Profile: ONRC Open Data Batch PipelineRomania now has an onboarding profile powered by ONRC Open Data (~4.1M entities), providing fast company lookups from synchronized data.

Search: Full-text search by company name, CUI, or registration number
Onboarding Profile: Fast company lookup (~1s) with deterministic mappings for status (197 official codes), legal form (20+ types with ISO 20275), and activity codes (CAEN → NACE → ISIC)
Legal representatives: Individual and corporate representatives with role mapping, birth date, nationality, and addresses
Activity codes: CAEN Rev. 2 codes with Romanian descriptions, NACE Rev. 2 with English descriptions, and ISIC Rev. 4 derived via the official UN correspondence table. All deterministic (no AI inference)
Freshness check: the integration detects new dataset publications on data.gov.ro and refreshes automatically

For detailed information, see our Romania documentation.

🇧🇪 Belgium

Full juridical situation mapping in statusDetailsBelgium now surfaces the complete KBO/CBE juridical situation (A152 code list) in statusDetails, replacing the previous binary active/ceased classification.

UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING for companies with an open bankruptcy (050) or judicial reorganisation (091) proceeding, with insolvencyStartDate when available
closureReason now populated for closed companies: BANKRUPTCY, VOLUNTARY_DISSOLUTION, ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION, COURT_ORDER, LIQUIDATION, MERGER, SPLIT
localName now reflects the French juridical situation label (e.g. Ouverture de faillite) instead of the generic Actif / Cessé

All 36 KBO/CBE juridical situation codes are mapped. Both the BCE Open Data fast path and the CBE Public Search enrichment path converge on the same standardised output.For the complete code table, see the Belgium documentation. For the full status model reference, see the Company Status guide.

Features

📍 GPS Coordinates on Addresses

Company addresses now include latitude and longitude fields, giving you precise geographic coordinates for every geocoded address. These coordinates are derived automatically from the address and are available across all countries.

Ready-to-use coordinates - Latitude and longitude are returned directly in the address object, no extra API call needed
Map-friendly - Easily plot company locations on a map or calculate distances between companies

Features

🔍 Domain-Based Company Search

Search now supports web domain queries. When the search query looks like a domain (e.g., doctrine.fr, stripe.com, kvk.nl), the system resolves the company behind it and routes to the appropriate country’s search.

Automatic detection - Domains are detected transparently, including with https:// or www. prefixes
Cross-country resolution - The resolved company’s country is used for the search, regardless of the country parameter
Fallback strategy - If the resolved identifier returns no results, the system retries with the resolved legal name

Countries

🇫🇮 Finland

Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs)Finland now supports Ultimate Beneficial Owner data, sourced from PRH’s ESR (Beneficial Ownership Register), a separate service from the existing VIRRE Trade Register integration.

Ownership & voting rights - Structured control details with percentage values and nature (direct/indirect)
Personal details - Name, date of birth, nationality, and residence city (resolved from Finnish municipality codes)
Entity type awareness - UBO data is available for private limited companies (Oy). Public companies (Oyj), state-owned entities, associations, foundations, and sole entrepreneurs typically have no UBO data due to Finnish law requirements (>25% ownership/voting threshold)

For detailed information, see our Finland documentation.

🇩🇪 Germany

WZ 2008 Activity ClassificationGerman company profiles now include WZ 2008 (Wirtschaftszweig) activity codes, the official German economic activity classification system. The WZ 2008 code is matched from the company’s “Gegenstand des Unternehmens” using AI-based classification against all 839 official sub-classes from Destatis.

New WZ2008 field in company profile activities alongside ISIC and NACE
Supports all 839 WZ 2008 sub-classes with German descriptions
Available in both company profile and onboarding profile

🇭🇺 Hungary

Major Rework: Official e-Cégjegyzék API IntegrationWe’ve completely reworked the Hungary integration by switching to the official e-Cégjegyzék (OCCSZ) source for Trade Register Extract retrieval. Company profiles are parsed deterministically from the extract, with enrichment only for address parsing, legal form standardization, and role classification.

Variable pricing: Unlike flat-rate countries, the Trade Register Extract price depends on the document size. Prices are shown before purchase.
Budget control: New profileMaxBudget parameter lets you set a maximum spend. If the estimate exceeds your budget, the request fails with a budget_exceeded error so you can retry with a higher budget.
Expanded data coverage: Company profiles now include shareholders (from TRE Part II), establishments (business premises and branch offices), other key persons (auditors, supervisory board members), and activity codes (TEÁOR, NACE, ISIC)
Field-level data source tracking: Each field in the response includes provenance metadata (live_from_registry for TRE-derived data, ai_analysis for AI-enriched fields like address and legal form, vies for VAT validation)
Search by VAT number: Search now supports Hungarian VAT numbers (with or without HU prefix)

For detailed information, see our Hungary documentation.

🇫🇷 France

Deterministic Legal Form & Role Mapping — AI RemovedWe’ve replaced all AI-based legal form and role mapping in France with fully deterministic static lookups, eliminating runtime AI calls for these fields across both batch and live pipelines.

Legal forms — All 450 INSEE catégorie juridique codes are now mapped via a static lookup table providing the local French name, English translation, standardized category, and ISO 20275 (ELF) code. Previously, live requests used GPT-4.1-mini for translation and standardization. The static mapping was generated by running AI enrichment once on every code and freezing the results.
Roles — All 71 RNE role codes are now mapped via a static lookup with standardized role, English translation, and legal representative classification based on French corporate law. No AI involved.
SIRENE legal forms — SIRENE-only companies (not in RNE) now use the same static legal form mapping as RNE, providing full English translations, standardized categories, and ISO 20275 codes. Previously, SIRENE batch mode returned only the local name.

Impact:

Faster response times (no AI calls for legal form or role enrichment)
Consistent results (deterministic, no variance between requests)
Lower cost (no LLM token usage for these fields)
SIRENE-only companies now have the same legal form data quality as RNE companies

For the complete mapping tables, see our France documentation.

🇮🇹 Italy

Shareholders as a Standalone DatapointItaly shareholders are now available as an independent shareholders datapoint, separate from the company profile. Previously, shareholder data was bundled into companyProfile and always fetched together. Now you can request shareholders independently or alongside the company profile.

Dedicated shareholders datapoint: fetch shareholders without triggering a full company profile request
Birth data enrichment: individual shareholders are cross-referenced with legal representatives to populate birth date and birth address when available (using the InfoCamere register, which is cached)
Sole proprietors: correctly return an empty shareholders list, as sole proprietorships have no registered shareholders in the trade register

API

🧾 Expanded VAT Validation to 20 EU Countries

We’ve dramatically expanded VAT validation support from 2 to 20 EU countries. All supported countries now include:

VAT search - Search for companies using their VAT number (with or without country prefix)
VIES verification - Automatic validation with legally admissible proof (consultationNumber)
Frontend display - New Tax ID component in company profiles showing verification status with expandable VIES details

Tax ID verification details showing registered name, address, verification date and consultation number

Full taxId support (VAT in profile + VIES verification):🇫🇷 France, 🇪🇸 Spain, 🇸🇪 Sweden, 🇮🇹 Italy, 🇵🇹 Portugal, 🇵🇱 Poland, 🇪🇪 Estonia, 🇦🇹 Austria, 🇧🇪 Belgium, 🇱🇺 Luxembourg, 🇩🇰 Denmark, 🇨🇿 Czechia, 🇷🇴 Romania, 🇭🇺 Hungary, 🇫🇮 Finland, 🇭🇷 CroatiaVAT search only (VIES reverse lookup, no taxId in profile):🇱🇻 Latvia, 🇨🇾 Cyprus, 🇮🇪 Ireland, 🇲🇹 Malta

For countries with “VAT search only”, the VAT number is neither algorithmically derivable from the registration number nor available in the registry API. You can still search by VAT number via VIES reverse lookup, but the taxId field won’t appear in company profiles.

For detailed documentation, see our VAT Validation guide.

🧾 Tax ID Support (taxId) - France & Spain

Added a new taxId field to company profiles that provides structured tax identification information.Key features:

Structured tax ID data - Includes type, value, country, and verification status
Verification with legal proof - Optional VIES validation provides a consultationNumber (official EU receipt) for audit purposes
No external calls for basic data - VAT numbers are calculated mathematically (France) or derived from NIF (Spain) without API calls
Search by VAT - Both countries now support searching by VAT number

Response structure:

{
  "taxId": {
    "type": "eu_vat",
    "value": "27443061841", // WITHOUT country prefix
    "country": "FR",
    "verification": {
      "status": "unverified",
      "consultationNumber": "WAPIAAAAW..." // Only with VIES validation
    }
  }
}

Country-specific notes:

🇫🇷 France: VAT calculated from SIREN using the official formula. Search now supports TVA Intracommunautaire format.
🇪🇸 Spain: VAT value equals NIF (Número de Identificación Fiscal). Note: Having a NIF doesn’t guarantee EU VAT registration (requires ROI enrollment).

The taxId.value field stores the VAT number WITHOUT the country prefix. The country is stored separately in taxId.country. The identifiers.VAT field also stores the VAT value without prefix for consistency.

Added representedBy field for corporate legal representatives - When a company (personne morale) serves as a legal representative, you can now see the physical person who represents that company. This captures the “représentant permanent” (permanent representative) commonly found in French documents or “vertreten durch” in German documents.

Example: When “SAS MANAGEMENT” is a legal representative, the API now shows both the company details and the individual (e.g., “Jean DUPONT”) who acts on its behalf.

⚠️ Deprecations

Removed source field from shareholders - The source field has been temporarily removed from shareholder data. We’re working on a more comprehensive solution for tracking data provenance that will be introduced in a future release.

🚀 Onboarding Profiles

We’ve expanded fast onboarding-style company retrieval (today: POST /v2/company with mode: "onboarding"; previously documented as the Onboarding Profile flow) to support more countries:

🇧🇪 Belgium (BE)
🇩🇰 Denmark (DK)
🇫🇷 France (FR)
🇳🇱 Netherlands (NL)
🇸🇪 Sweden (SE)
🇬🇧 United Kingdom (GB)

Countries

🇸🇪 Sweden

Offering access to more Bolagsverket documents - You now have access to the following documents from the register :
- Certified Trade Register Extract - Official & certified PDF extract from Bolagsverket containing information about the company (~3 minutes retrieval time)
- Articles of association - Official PDF from Bolagsverket indicating business activities, registered office of the company, and so on (~ 3 minutes retrieval time)
- Statutes - Official PDF from Bolagsverket containing information about the company (~3 minutes retrieval time)
- Ultimate Beneficial Owners extract - Official PDF from Bolagsverket containing information about the ultimate beneficial owners of the company (~3 minutes retrieval time)
- Annual reports (all years compilation) - Official PDF from Bolagsverket containing financial informations of the company (~3 minutes retrieval time)
- Minutes (all years compilation) - Official PDF from Bolagsverket containing notes from board and general meetings (~3 minutes retrieval time)

Ultimate Beneficial Owners - Extracted from the Ultimate Beneficial Owners extract: Bolagsverket (the Swedish Companies Registration Office) reports control extent (“Omfattning”), not ownership percentage. Key difference: Multiple beneficial owners can each show 100% control because the percentage represents how much influence a person can exercise over the company, not their economic stake.

Platform

🔄 Streaming Search

Progressive search results - Search endpoints now support streaming mode via the stream=true query parameter, enabling progressive result delivery as each search source completes. This provides faster time-to-first-result and better user experience, especially for countries with multiple search sources.
Server-Sent Events (SSE) - Streaming search uses SSE format with named events (progress, complete, error) for real-time result updates
CLI support - The topo CLI tool now supports --stream flag for streaming search results

Streaming search is particularly beneficial for countries like Germany that query multiple sources (cached, live APIs). Use streaming to get cached results immediately (~200ms) while live sources continue to fetch additional results in the background.

For detailed documentation and code examples, see our Search guide.

📄 Document Metadata Simplification

We’ve simplified document metadata fields for better consistency and clarity:

Removed nameInEnglish and descriptionInEnglish fields - These redundant fields have been removed from the API response
Standardized name field - Now always contains the original document name in the local language of the country where it was issued
Standardized description field - Now always contains the document description in English

This change provides a more predictable API structure and eliminates confusion about which field to use for document identification and description.

Countries

🇩🇪 Germany

Intelligent ID-Based Search EnhancementsWe’ve significantly improved the German company search with intelligent ID parsing and prioritization:

ID Extraction: We parse queries to extract and validate German company ID components (bureau/court, register type like HRB/HRA, registration number) from natural language queries. Includes full validation against all 154 known bureaus and 6 register types, with fuzzy matching for variations (e.g., “Munchen” matches “München”).
Full ID Precision: When all three ID components are detected and yield an exact match, returns a single precise result without name search fallback.
Partial ID Prioritization: For queries with 1-2 ID components, partial ID matches are ranked first, followed by name search results (deduplicated by ID).
Robust Fallback: If full ID search fails or query lacks ID components, seamlessly falls back to comprehensive name search.

This enhancement provides precision for ID-based lookups while maintaining broad discoverability for general searches. Supports queries like “München HRB 228960” (exact single result) or “HRB 12345” (prioritized partial matches).

🇵🇱 Poland

Dual format availability - Both the original XML and converted PDF are stored and accessible
Seamless handling - Conversion happens transparently during document retrieval with graceful fallback to XML if conversion fails

Note: Due to technical limitations of the Polish register portal, document format information is not available during listing and is only determined when documents are downloaded.

For detailed information about the data model and structure, see our Financial Data Extraction documentation.

📄 Automatic PDF Document Conversion

We’ve introduced automatic conversion of non-PDF documents to PDF format for easier handling and viewing. Supported input formats include:Images: JPG, JPEG, PNG, TIFF/TIF Tabular: CSV, XLS, XLSX Documents: DOC, DOCX, RTF, TXT, XPS, PPT, PPTXHow it works: When a raw document is retrieved, our system automatically converts it to PDF in the background. The converted PDF typically becomes available approximately 20 seconds after the original raw document is obtained. Both the original format and the converted PDF are available for download in the frontend interface.

Major Data Model Enhancements

We are progressively rolling out these data model enhancements to our supported countries, depending on the availability of data in the currently connected registers. This means that not all enhancements may be available for every country immediately, but coverage will expand as register data allows.

Establishments - Now you can retrieve all establishments associated with a company, including branch offices, subsidiaries, and other affiliated locations that operate under the parent company’s legal identity. This helps you understand a company’s physical presence and operational footprint.
Other Key People - Introducing a new data point to capture important company personnel beyond legal representatives. This includes board members, auditors, commissioners, and other significant roles. Unlike legal representatives who have binding authority, Other Key People provides visibility into the broader governance and oversight structure of a company.
Phone Numbers - Companies can now include multiple phone numbers in E.164 format (e.g., +33123456789), making it easier to establish contact through official channels.
Website - Retrieve the official company website URL directly from the API response, providing quick access to the company’s online presence.
Status Details (Beta) - We’re introducing statusDetails, which provides enriched information about company status changes, including closure reasons, liquidation details, and important dates. The data model for status details is highly likely to evolve as we gather feedback and adapt to the diversity of register data. As this feature is in beta, we’re actively collecting feedback to refine the data structure and ensure it meets your needs.
Topograph Standard Roles Revision - The roles in Topograph Standard for legal representatives have been revised to cover a broader range of situations and to ensure there is no overlap with Other Key People. This provides clearer, more accurate role classification across jurisdictions.

This feature is currently in early beta. As it requires retrieving companyProfile data for each entity in the ownership tree, usage may incur significant costs. We recommend reaching out to become a design partner to help shape this feature’s development and discuss optimal usage patterns.

Countries

🇪🇸 Spain

Fixed financial document listing functionality to correctly retrieve and display available financial documents.

Platform

Optimized request processing pipeline, resulting in an average 2 seconds reduction in response time across all endpoints.
Fixed performance bottlenecks when processing companies with large document collections by implementing a faster inference endpoint for document metadata processing.
Enhanced performance logging across the application to better identify and address bottlenecks.

We are actively working on improving overall performance, with a focus on inference speed optimization. A faster inference solution is currently in development.

Countries

🇮🇹 Italy

Added support for asynchronous data retrieval from the Italian Chamber of Commerce (Camerale). As a result, companyProfile for Italy is now an asynchronous data point.

🇩🇪 Germany

Implemented fallback to Handelsregister when Unternehmensregister is unavailable for search and companyProfile.

🇪🇸 Spain

Improved overall speed and reliability of Spanish company data retrieval through infrastructure optimizations.
Added support for asynchronous data retrieval for legalRepresentatives in Spain. Note that base companyProfile data still remains synchronous. This change prevents blocking access to base company data when fetching many legal representatives, which could be time-consuming for companies with extensive representative lists.
As a result, companyProfile for Spain is now a partially asynchronous data point.

🇨🇳 China

Improved overall speed and reliability of Chinese company data retrieval through infrastructure optimizations.

🇳🇱 Netherlands

Updated document listing functionality to match KVK’s new API specifications, restoring the ability to list available documents for Dutch companies.
