French Accountants Directory Scraper — experts-comptables.org

Export the official French expert-comptable register — firm names, addresses, phones, accountant names, and optional SIREN/SIRET — in one dataset ready for CRM, outbound, or market research.

Stop copying annuaire.experts-comptables.org by hand. This Actor reads the public Ordre directory over plain HTTP, structures every accounting firm as a row, and lets you run by commune, nationwide, or from profile URLs you already have. Download JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify Dataset tab — or schedule monthly refreshes via API.

No login. No API key. No account on the source site.

Important: Data comes from public firm profile pages. Email is not included — the register does not expose it in structured data. Optional SIREN/SIRET matching uses the public French business register and returns a confidence score — filter on gouvMatchConfidence: "high" for CRM imports. You must comply with Ordre des experts-comptables terms, GDPR, and professional-directory rules.

Who is this for?

What you get by default: firm name, full address, phone, GPS coordinates, canonical profile URL, and full names of experts-comptables listed on the profile — typically ~100% fill on core fields in our samples. Website and social links appear when the profile publishes them (~10–20% for website on mixed communes).

When to enable SIREN/SIRET matching: turn Match SIREN & SIRET on when you need company identifiers for HubSpot, Pipedrive, or chaining with French Establishments. Leave it off for the fastest directory-only export. In our tests, ~80% of independent cabinets match with high confidence; network brands may share a holding SIREN — use siret for the local branch.

Which mode to pick: use By city for your first run (fast, cheap, easy to validate). Switch to Full directory when you need a national file (~22k–31k unique firms, ~30–45 min without SIREN enrichment). Use Your URLs when you already have profile links.

Quick start

First run in the Apify Console (~2 minutes)

1. Open this Actor → Input tab.
2. Mode: leave By city (default — safe for Try for free).
3. City: pick Rodez or choose Paris, Lyon, etc. from the dropdown.
4. Other city (slug): leave blank unless your commune is not listed (e.g. annecy).
5. Match SIREN & SIRET: leave unchecked for a fast preview.
6. Max firms: 50 on Try — enough to validate the dataset.
7. Click Start (or Try for free).
8. Watch Progress: in the log and the short status line (e.g. Scanning France — 34% · 120 firms saved).
9. Output → Dataset — open the View dropdown: Outreach CRM for phone + firm names (cold outreach), CRM + SIREN when register matching is on, or Accounting firms for the full default table. Export JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Export all of France

1. Mode → Full directory — all of France.
2. Max firms → 0 (no row ceiling).
3. Optional: enable Match SIREN & SIRET if you need identifiers (adds ~0.3–0.5 s per firm).
4. Start — expect ~22k–31k rows and ~30–45 minutes (longer with SIREN matching). Rows appear while the run is still going.

Refresh firms you already know

1. Mode → Your URLs — refresh known firms.
2. Paste one official profile URL per line.
3. Start — skips commune discovery; fetches only the pages you listed.

Run via API

curl-X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/corent1robert~experts-comptables-annuaire-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN"\
-H"Content-Type: application/json"\
-d'{
 "mode": "cities",
 "cityPreset": "paris",
 "citySlugs": ["lyon"],
 "maxProfiles": 0,
 "enrichSiren": true
 }'

Fetch results:

$curl"https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/DATASET_ID/items?format=json&token=YOUR_API_TOKEN"

Use maxProfiles: 0 for no row cap. Add "resume": true on full-directory runs to continue after an abort (API-only).

Demo video

Record a 2-minute screencast (Console → Start → Dataset → CSV export). When ready, paste the bare YouTube URL on the line below — Apify auto-embeds it on the Store page.

Step-by-step script: ./docs/DEMO-VIDEO-SCRIPT.md.

Ready-made examples (published tasks)

Four one-click presets for the Apify Examples tab. Publish each task in Console (Tasks → Publication) after a successful cloud run — until then, the links below return 404 (expected).

Maintainer kit: published-tasks/publication-console.md (copy-paste SEO fields for Console).

What does it extract?

Output shape: one row per firm record in the Dataset. Deduplication uses searchId.

Typical fill rates

Benchmark on a Rodez sample (30 firms, June 2026):

With Match SIREN & SIRET enabled (sample of 120 cabinets without prior SIREN):

Filter CRM imports with gouvMatchConfidence === "high" for the safest automatic match rate.

Three modes (JSON reference)

By city

{
"mode":"cities",
"cityPreset":"paris",
"citySlugs":["lyon"],
"maxProfiles":0,
"enrichSiren":false
}

Use cityPreset in the Console, customCitySlug for unlisted communes, or citySlugs array via API for multiple cities.

Full directory

{
"mode":"fullDirectory",
"maxProfiles":0,
"maxCities":0,
"enrichSiren":true
}

Use maxCities: 5 (API) to cap communes during testing.

Your URLs

{
"mode":"bulkUrls",
"profileUrls":[
"https://annuaire.experts-comptables.org/expert-comptable/12346-douls-associes-rodez-12000"
],
"enrichSiren":true
}

How it works

1. Commune list (full directory only) — loads a bundled index of ~4 679 communes instantly (no network crawl). Use API flag refreshCommuneIndex: true to rebuild from the official regional index.
2. Map scan — collects firm IDs (searchId) per commune.
3. Deduplication — merges IDs before export.
4. Profile export — fetches each profile page; parses JSON-LD, accountant names, and HTML panels.
5. Optional SIREN/SIRET — matches each firm to the official business register (name + address + accountants).
6. Dataset — pushes each row immediately so you see results during long runs.

HTTP-only — no browser.

Input (Console vs API)

API-only options: resume, refreshCommuneIndex, citySlugs, indexConcurrency, verboseLogs, enrichSirenDelayMs, mapConcurrency, maxConcurrency, proxyConfiguration, maxCities, maxRequestRetries, checkpointEveryCommunes.

siren / siret / gouv* fields appear only when Match SIREN & SIRET is enabled and a match is found.

Use profileUrl or searchId as the stable key across runs.

How much does it cost to scrape experts-comptables.org?

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing on Apify — you pay per exported firm row, not for idle compute. HTTP-only runs keep platform compute low; residential proxy is not required for typical jobs.

Per-row rates by Apify tier (contact row / enriched row):

Run start is not billed — you only pay per exported row. Configure events in Apify Console → Monetization → Pay per event (checklist: docs/PPE-CONSOLE.md).

Is it legal to scrape experts-comptables.org?

This Actor accesses public pages from the official Ordre register — the same information visible to any visitor. You remain responsible for:

• GDPR and French privacy law when storing professional contact data.
• Direct marketing rules (B2B outreach requires legitimate interest and opt-out respect).
• Terms of use of annuaire.experts-comptables.org.

Use outputs for legitimate professional purposes — B2B services, market research, CRM enrichment — not abusive bulk spam.

Also available — French B2B registers on Apify

FAQ

Is this affiliated with the Ordre des experts-comptables?
No. It automates access to public directory pages.

Why is email missing?
The profile uses a Contacter par mail button (separate UI). JSON-LD does not include email.

How accurate is SIREN/SIRET matching?
Independent cabinets: ~80% high confidence in our samples. Network brands (TGS, Baker Tilly, etc.) may resolve to a holding SIREN — use siret and gouvAdresse to validate the local branch. Filter on gouvMatchConfidence: "high" for automatic CRM imports.

How do I find a commune slug?
Open …/recherche/ville/paris on the directory → slug is paris.

Can I enrich an existing CSV offline?
Yes — use scripts/enrich-experts-comptables-siren.mjs in the repo for batch CSV enrichment with the same matching logic.
