EU and other markets

Company data from the EU and other markets

A Swiss standard export cannot simply be transferred to other countries. Name the countries individually; we confirm fields, identifiers, sources and marketing rules per country.

33,978,235 businesses in the 27 EU member states according to Eurostat, Structural Business Statistics (sbs_ovw_act), reference year 2024 (data updated 30 September 2026). Not a figure from our dataset.

Specify countries separately

  1. Plan the country and the type of identifier as separate information (UID, VAT number, IČO …). Test different address formats and characters.

  2. Only merge records across countries with traceable matching rules.

Process

How a request for another country works

What can be delivered depends on the public sources and the legal situation in the target country. That is why we clarify it before every quotation.

1. Name the country and target group

Country, industry or activity (NACE codes welcome), region and the fields every record should contain.

2. Feasibility and quotation

We check the country’s sources and state scope, columns, reference date, delivery date and price. All prices are final prices.

3. Receive the file

After your confirmation you receive the export as a UTF-8 CSV, on request as XLSX or JSON.

FAQ

Company data from other countries: frequently asked questions

No. On this website, an industry catalogue with a price list exists only for Switzerland. For other countries we compile the data per request and tell you in advance what can be delivered from public sources.

Customers most often ask for Germany, Austria, Czechia and Poland. We check other EU member states per request. Outside Europe we offer the US state of Florida, for which we keep our own database with 3,850,964 active entries from the state’s business register.

It counts businesses in industry, construction and market services (NACE sections B to S excluding public administration and membership organisations) in 2024: 33,978,235 in the EU-27. The figure describes the market, not our dataset (Eurostat, Structural Business Statistics (sbs_ovw_act), data updated 30 September 2026). Switzerland is not an EU member and is not included in this figure.

No. Whether businesses may be contacted by email or phone is regulated by each country; in the EU the GDPR applies as well. Some countries prohibit unsolicited advertising by email and phone towards businesses too. We tell you what we know about the legal situation in the target country when you ask; we do not provide legal advice.
