Corporate insolvency notices from official gazettes and registers across FR, DE, GB, AT, CH, NO, FI, US, NL, DK, HR, SE, ES, LV and EE.

**Corporate only.** Personal/consumer insolvency is deliberately excluded and is never returned.

**Company-linked for FR/GB/NO and, by identifier, FI (business ID), DK (CVR number), HR (MBS), SE (organisationsnummer), CH (UID), LV (registration number), EE (registry code) and ES (NIF).** `GET /companies/{id}?include=insolvency` on a Finnish, Danish, Croatian, Swedish, Swiss, Latvian or Estonian company returns them; a Swiss notice is linked only where the SHAB notice names the debtor's UID, and one without a UID stays unlinked. For DE/AT/US/NL no company registry is held, so these notices stand alone — which is also why they are worth having: they are distress coverage in markets not otherwise available.

**Denmark, Croatia and Sweden.** DK notices come from CVR credit information (konkurs and tvangsakkord): one notice per proceeding, dated by the decision that opened it, with the latest stage of the proceeding, with no court or case number. HR notices are court decisions from the Croatian court register (bankruptcy, shortened bankruptcy, pre-bankruptcy proceedings), with the court and case number where the register states them; only companies still on the register are covered. SE notices are Bolagsverket's procedure data (konkurs, företagsrekonstruktion, ackordsförhandling), updated weekly, with no court, case number or source link; proceedings that ended before collection are not included. Belgium is not an insolvency market: its bankruptcy shows in the company status and in its register-change events.

**Spain, Latvia and Estonia.** ES notices are the concurso entries (declaration, opening of the liquidation phase, conclusion) the Registro Mercantil publishes in BORME since 2009, one per court resolution, linked by NIF and dated by the court's resolution date with the BORME publication date alongside (a median of about ten weeks later, sometimes more than a year); legal entities with a NIF only, judge and administrator never served, requests for a declaration and other resolutions are not notices, and an entry that cannot be tied to the company, or whose NIF is an administrator's, is withheld. LV notices are the Insolvency Register's insolvency and legal protection proceedings, an opening and a closing notice each, since 2008, with court and case number where stated, linked by registration number; legal persons of the commercial register only, a dismissed application is not served, no administrators, updated daily. EE notices are bankruptcy declarations from the e-Business Register, one per register entry, dated by the entry (a few days after the court's order), linked by registry code, with no court, case number, trustee or closing notice; companies still on the register, in liquidation or in bankruptcy only (a company deleted from the register leaves the source, so the count is a floor); sole traders never served. `GET /companies/{id}?include=insolvency` on a Latvian or Estonian company returns them.

Contains CVR data (Erhvervsstyrelsen), CC BY 4.0. Contains data from the Insolvency Register of the Republic of Latvia (Register of Enterprises), CC0. Contains data from the Estonian e-Business Register (RIK), CC BY 4.0. Spanish notices: based on data from the Agencia Estatal Boletín Oficial del Estado (BORME).

Name matching is a CONTAINS match on the normalised company name (trigram-indexed; minimum 2 characters).

Each notice carries `status` (standard: insolvency-proceedings, liquidation, winding-up, restructuring, administration, receivership, forced-sale, concluded) and `local_status`, the original wording of the source (for example "Konkurs: Dekret").
