Korint looks up French company information in the official INSEE Sirene registry. A company can be identified either by its SIRET (the 14-digit establishment identifier) or its SIREN (the 9-digit company identifier)—it is the same registry; the number is simply the key used to query it.

What We Fetch

Using a SIRET or SIREN, Korint retrieves:
  • Company Legal Name: Official registered business name
  • Business Activity: NAF/APE code indicating the type of business activity
  • Legal Structure: Company type (SARL, SAS, etc.)
  • Company Address: Registered business address
  • Company Status: Whether the company—and the specific establishment—is active or closed
  • Registration Date: When the company was registered
This information auto-populates company details during quoting and helps verify business eligibility for commercial insurance products.

Use in fraud detection

The same registry lookup supports document fraud detection. When a document carries a company identifier, Korint can confirm the company existed and was active on the document’s date, and that the name on the document matches the registry. Companies whose data is legally restricted (non-diffusible) are not assessed.
