Austria
Company data from the Austria business register, through the Topograph API.
Topograph reads Firmenbuch (Austrian Companies Register), Vereinsregister (ZVR), GISA (Gewerbeinformationssystem Austria) and firmenbuchgrundbuch.at (certified Firmenbuch extracts) and returns the company profile, legal representatives, other key persons and shareholders of Austria companies through one API.
What comes back for each datapoint and document, as on the coverage matrix.
Requests run in prefill mode (fast) or verification mode (the authoritative register answer).
