What brreg does

This skill connects an agent to the public Brønnøysundregistrene API. It supports company searches by name, organization form, NACE industry code, municipality, postal code, employee count, and registration dates. Queries can also filter bankruptcy, dissolution, and VAT registration, or fetch one record by organisasjonsnummer.

The skill covers endpoints for sub-entities, organization forms, and recent registry changes. For larger datasets, it points to JSON, CSV, and Excel downloads. Public API access needs no authentication, while heavy traffic may be rate-limited.

A single query returns at most 10,000 results. Use the bulk downloads for a complete dataset.

What it helps with

  • search Norwegian companies by name
  • retrieve a record by organization number
  • filter firms by industry and municipality
  • check bankruptcy or dissolution status
  • download registry data as JSON, CSV, or Excel

Example prompts for the agent

  • Find Norwegian companies whose names contain tech, then return their organization numbers.
  • Look up this company by organisasjonsnummer and show its address, industry code, and employee count.
  • List the sub-entities for company 923609016 and explain the pagination.
