Limitations

  • Official registry data access

    Data comes from the official registry's public API under its open-data terms (https://opendata.businessportal.gr/license/); results carry the registry as their source.

  • Registry status interpretation

    Known GEMI status descriptions map to active, inactive, dissolved, bankrupt or liquidation; unrecognised descriptions are preserved and missing descriptions return unknown. These mappings are not independently confirmed against live GEMI responses.

  • GEMI rate limit is 8 requests per minute

    The GEMI Open Data API enforces a maximum of 8 requests per minute per API key. Requests exceeding this limit return HTTP 429.

    What to do instead: Space requests to stay within 8 per minute.

  • AFM tax identifiers can be missing

    When AFM is missing the derived vat_number is null; vat-validate downstream steps will soft-fail for those entities.

    What to do instead: Provide the AFM as input directly when known, or use a separate VAT validation source.

  • Branches and main entities are both returned by GEMI

    GEMI includes branch records (is_branch=true) alongside main-entity records. Some KYB use cases want the parent only.

    What to do instead: Check the is_branch field before using the record as the principal counterparty.
