Company data from the Spain business register, through the Topograph API.
Topograph reads BORME (Spanish Official State Gazette – Mercantile Register), Registro Mercantil de España and Registro de Fundaciones de Competencia Estatal and returns the company profile, legal representatives, other key persons and shareholders of Spain companies through one API.
What comes back for each datapoint and document, as on the coverage matrix.
