# cvr.dev

> Modern REST API for Danish CVR (Central Business Register) data. Get instant access to company data from the Danish CVR registry with a live-updated, simple, and well-documented REST API. Avoid applications, waiting times, and integrations with Virk's sparsely documented Elastic Search endpoints. Data is cached and updated every minute.

The API requires a cvr.dev account with an active subscription. All plans include a 30-day free trial. Authentication is via Bearer token in the Authorization header.
