## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability opendata402-norwegian-company-register-de844317
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the Norwegian company with organisation number 923609016 in the Brønnøysund register and tell me its legal form, registered address, NACE codes, and whether it's VAT registered or has any bankruptcy flags?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative data on Norwegian registered companies from the official Brønnøysund Enhetsregisteret, especially for KYC, supplier due diligence, or compliance checks. It covers VAT status, bankruptcy/liquidation flags, share capital, NACE codes, and legal form — making it superior to generic web scraping. Note it excludes sole proprietorships (ENK). For UK companies use the Companies House sibling endpoint; for Dutch companies use the Dutch BAG/KVK endpoint.

## Known failure modes

- No company found for the given orgnr or name — returns empty result or 404
- Invalid orgnr format (must be exactly 9 digits) — returns validation error
- Name query too short or contains invalid characters — pattern mismatch error
- Limit parameter out of range (must be 1-20) — validation error
- Sole proprietorships (ENK) are excluded and will not appear in results
- Upstream Enhetsregisteret API downtime causing service unavailability

## How this service works

Returns name, legal form, business and postal address, industry codes (NACE), employees, founding and registration dates, VAT registration, share capital, bankruptcy and liquidation flags, website. Sole proprietorships (ENK) are left out because their name is a person's name. Use it for KYC and supplier checks. NLOD 2.0.

## Output

Sole proprietorships (ENK) are excluded.
