From company to property, not just company
Enhetsregisteret tells you who a company is. We link it to the properties the company owns and leases, so you see both in the same search.

What Brønnøysundregistrene gives you
The data, and what it decides
For Placepoint, Enhetsregisteret matters most. All datasets that show where a certain type of business is located use the address, industrial classification and status details in Enhetsregisteret. These include fuel stations, pharmacies, wine monopoly outlets, gyms, garden centres, furniture stores, building materials stores, shopping centres, fast food restaurants, hotels with restaurants, post offices and postal locations, grocery chains and variety stores. The same applies to Placepoint's own analyses of ownership and company structure, growing companies and main industry per basic statistical unit. A business that is not registered in Enhetsregisteret (for example the gym chain EVO) therefore does not appear in Placepoint, even if it exists physically.
We develop and run services that make dealing with the public sector simpler. Brønnøysundregistrene is a government agency under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries with around 480 employees.

How to get started
Four steps
Book a demo or create an account
We show you the data on properties you know.
Look up an address
Use an address, cadastre number or the map. The panel shows what is registered on the property.
Turn on the map layers you need
The layers from this source are in the layer picker, sorted by category.
Get the data via API or MCP
The Placepoint API and the MCP server give you the same data programmatically.
Do names of individuals from Brønnøysundregistrene appear?
Company roles, such as general manager and board members, are public information from Enhetsregisteret and appear as such. Private individuals who own property are protected and appear as "Private person".
How up to date is the company data?
We mirror Enhetsregisteret and the Register of business enterprises continuously. The Norwegian Tax Administration (Skatteetaten) updates the Shareholder Register once a year, so ownership shares can be up to one year old. The dataset shows this.
Do I get financial figures?
Yes. Annual accounts from the Register of Company Accounts are in the company panel, with key figures and trends over time, and in the Placepoint API under /companies/{country}/{id}/financial-statements.
Can I filter by industry?
Yes. Filters let you search by NACE code, industrial sector, number of employees, year founded and legal entity type, and combine this with where the company owns or leases premises.

Can we use the data from Brønnøysundregistrene in our own systems?

Several of us in the organisation use the tool daily and get a lot out of it.”
