Denmark: CVR at the Danish Business Authority
The Central Business Register (CVR) is operated by the Danish Business Authority and available at datacvr.virk.dk. It holds core data, management and board, legal and beneficial owners, and annual reports for companies with a filing duty. The CVR number has eight digits — read more in What is a CVR number?.
Norway: Brønnøysundregistrene
Norway's central register administration, Brønnøysundregistrene, spans among others the Enhetsregisteret (core data for all entities), the Foretaksregisteret (company-law registrations) and the Regnskapsregisteret (annual accounts). The Norwegian organisation number has nine digits.
Sweden: Bolagsverket — and SCB
Bolagsverket registers Swedish companies and receives their annual reports (årsredovisningar). The Swedish organisation number has ten digits. The statistics office SCB supplies industry codes among other data, and Bolagsverket also keeps the register of beneficial owners (verkliga huvudmän).
Finland: PRH and YTJ
In Finland the Patent and Registration Office (PRH) keeps the Trade Register, while the Business Information System YTJ — run jointly by PRH and the Tax Administration — exposes core data and the Finnish Business ID (Y-tunnus): seven digits, a hyphen and a check digit.
One profile, four registers
Riskpilot pulls the register data through Risika's data platform, which normalises the four national feeds into one consistent profile format — the same layout whether you look up a Danish ApS or a Finnish Oy. Because the registers publish different things, the content can vary by country. See the full data foundation under data sources & methodology.
Frequently asked questions
Is register data free?
Core information is public in all four countries, and lookups on Riskpilot are free. Some registers charge for certain original documents and certificates.
Can I use a CVR number in Norway or Sweden?
No. Each country has its own format — eight digits in Denmark, nine in Norway, ten in Sweden and the Y-tunnus with a check digit in Finland — and each number is only valid in its own register.
How current is the data on Riskpilot?
Register feeds are ingested daily via Risika's platform. The annual reports themselves can be up to eighteen months old when published — that is a property of filed accounts, not a register delay.
Why do profiles in different countries not show the same things?
Because the registers publish different information. Riskpilot shows what each country's register makes available — no more, no less.
