Company Identifiers

The Monaco implementation uses the official RCI number (Répertoire du Commerce et de l’Industrie):
  • RCI Number: Primary company registration number (e.g., 18S07961)
  • Canonical format (required for all non-search requests): YY[A-Z]{1,2}\\d{4,5} (2-digit year + 1–2 letters + 4–5 digits)
    • Example: 76S01561
    • Example: 24S09908
    • Example: 18C21017
    • Example: 21P07125

​
Legacy alias format (search-only)

Some Monaco IDs are sometimes written with an extra S inside the type code for civil entities (e.g. YYSC#####).
Topograph treats this as a legacy alias for the canonical form:
  • 18SC21017 → canonical 18C21017
Important: Search accepts both (18SC21017 and 18C21017) and will always return the canonical ID.
All other endpoints (onboardingProfile, companyProfile, documents) require the canonical ID and will return not found if the alias is used.

​
Letter Codes

  • S: Société (Company)
  • C: Civil
  • P: Personne Physique (Sole Trader)

Company Profile

Comprehensive company data extracted from the paid Trade Register Extract:
  • Company information: Legal name, commercial names, registration dates, capital, status
  • Legal representatives: Managers, directors, authorized signatories (extracted via AI parsing)
  • Enriched data: Legal form (ISO 20275), activities (ISIC/NACE), status classification
  • Address parsing: Structured address components with geocoding
Important: Legal representatives are only available in companyProfile, as they are extracted from the trade register extract document. They are not available in onboardingProfile. Processing Time: Company profile typically takes about 1 minute to complete, as it depends on retrieving and parsing the trade register extract document. Example:
