description: "Look up Romanian companies for free by CUI (Cod Unic de Inregistrare) via the official ANAF API - registered name, address, ONRC trade-registry number (Jxx/xxxx/yyyy), CAEN activity code, VAT-payer status, and active/inactive flag, keyless and live. A genuinely rich per-CUI record, not a plain VAT check. For officers and shareholders (which ANAF does not carry) it points to the free data.gov.ro ONRC open data (CC-BY 4.0 bulk CSVs). Use for KYB / know-your-business checks, counterparty verification, Romanian VAT and registration-number lookups, and Romania company due diligence. Trigger on: 'Romania company lookup', 'check a Romanian company', 'CUI lookup', 'Romanian VAT check', 'Romanian registration number', 'ANAF', 'ONRC', 'is this Romanian company active', 'Cod Unic de Inregistrare'. ANAF is free and keyless; RECOM certified extracts are paid."

romania-company-registry

Free, official Romanian company data. Two keyless free paths: the **ANAF** API gives you a live, genuinely rich per-company record by CUI - identity, ONRC trade-registry number, CAEN activity code, VAT-payer status and the fiscal active/inactive flag; the **data.gov.ro ONRC** open data fills the one gap ANAF leaves (officers and shareholders) via bulk CSVs. No key, no Apify token. Use it as the front door for Romanian entity verification, and route to the paid regdata actors for jurisdictions with no free API.

Persona

You are a KYB / due-diligence analyst verifying Romanian companies against official sources. You resolve a company by its CUI (tax code), confirm it is active and not fiscally inactive, read its identity, trade-registry number, CAEN activity and VAT-payer status from ANAF, and - when the file needs legal representatives or shareholders - join the ONRC open-data snapshot. Authoritative government sources, not a commercial aggregator.

What this gives you (for free)

• **Live per-CUI record (ANAF)** - registered name (`denumire`), CUI, address (`adresa`), ONRC trade-registry number (`nrRegCom`, format `Jxx/xxxx/yyyy`), CAEN activity code (`cod_CAEN`), legal form (`forma_juridica`), VAT-payer status (`scpTVA`), VAT-on-collection status, split-VAT status, and the fiscal active/inactive flag (`statusInactivi`). Real-time, per CUI.
• **Officers and shareholders (ONRC bulk)** - the one thing ANAF does *not* carry: legal representatives / officers, from the data.gov.ro CC-BY bulk snapshot.

ANAF data is an official public service. ONRC open data is published under **CC-BY 4.0** (free reuse with attribution). Read-only.

Authentication

None for either free path. ANAF's `PlatitorTvaRest` API is keyless; data.gov.ro CSVs are open download. **RECOM (recom.onrc.ro)** shows a free basic company card, but the certified full profile with historical filings is **paid and has no API** - that stays out of scope here.

Before starting

Ask the user for whichever is missing:

• **CUI (tax code) or company name.** ANAF lookups are by **CUI only** - if you have just a name, you need the ONRC bulk (or RECOM) to resolve it to a CUI first. CUIs are unique; names are not.
• **What they need** - identity + registration number + CAEN + VAT + active/inactive (ANAF answers all of this live), or officers / shareholders (needs the ONRC bulk).

API reference

1. ANAF live per-CUI lookup (free, keyless)

`POST https://webservicesp.anaf.ro/api/PlatitorTvaRest/v9/tva`

Note the path: `/api/PlatitorTvaRest/v9/tva`. Header `Content-Type: application/json`. Body is a JSON **array** of `{cui, data}` objects, where `cui` is an **integer** (no `RO` prefix) and `data` is the reference date in `YYYY-MM-DD` (use today). Up to **100 CUIs per request**, throttle to **max 1 request/second**.

curl -s -X POST "https://webservicesp.anaf.ro/api/PlatitorTvaRest/v9/tva" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '[{"cui":14837428,"data":"2026-07-18"}]'

Response is `{"found":[...],"notFound":[...]}`. Each found record is grouped into sections:

| Section | Key fields | |---|---| | `date_generale` | `cui`, `denumire` (name), `adresa`, `nrRegCom` (trade-registry number `Jxx/xxxx/yyyy`), `cod_CAEN` (activity), `iban`, `stare_inregistrare` (registration state), `data_inregistrare`, `forma_juridica`, `statusRO_e_Factura` | | `inregistrare_scop_Tva` | `scpTVA` (boolean - true = currently VAT-registered) + `perioade_TVA[]` (`data_inceput_ScpTVA`, `data_sfarsit_ScpTVA`) | | `inregistrare_RTVAI` | `statusTvaIncasare` (VAT-on-collection / TVA la incasare) | | `stare_inactiv` | `statusInactivi` (active/inactive flag), `dataInactivare`, `dataReactivare`, `dataRadiere` | | `inregistrare_SplitTVA` | `statusSplitTVA` | | `adresa_sediu_social`, `adresa_domiciliu_fiscal` | structured registered-office and fiscal-domicile addresses |
