When to use this API?

Use for

  • You need a normalized public administrative profile for a French company from its SIREN or SIRET.
  • You need headquarters, activity, legal-form, creation-date, employee-band or establishment-count fields in one response.

Avoid when

  • You only need a yes/no existence or active-status check; use company/fr/verify.
  • You need directors, financial statements, legal risk or compliance results; use the dedicated endpoint.

Limitations

  • Some profile fields can be null when the public source does not expose them for the company.
  • This endpoint does not replace the specialized directors, financials, risk or compliance endpoints.
