Critical scraping insight (the trick)

data.asfromania.ro/scr/ra/cautare POST endpoint is fronted by Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise but the server only validates the captcha if the form field g-recaptcha-response is present in the body. When that field is OMITTED entirely, the captcha check is skipped and the server returns full results. (When sent with any value, even empty, server tries to verify and rejects with "Verificare captcha eșuată".)

Fields per response (HTML inside raspuns):

• Number registration (RA-XXX / RBK-XXX) — globally unique per type
• LEI 20-char, CUI, RC code (J40/2226/2006)
• Authorization number + date, registration date, radiation date (active=NULL)
• Type (Societate de asigurare / Intermediar principal)
• Legal form, address, phone, fax
• Authorized classes (general + life — array)
• Executives (Conducere executivă)

Constraints

• Server-side validation: termen must be ≥4 characters.
• Free-text search hits multiple fields (denumire, CUI, adresă, județ, classes).
• sectiune (1=active / 2=radiate) and tipCompanie (0=insurer / 1=broker) appear to be IGNORED by the search endpoint when termen is given — results span all sections regardless.

Strategy used

1. Seed phase — 11 broad terms (ASIGURA, BROKER, BUCU, CLUJ, TIMI, BRAS, RETRA, RADI, FUZIO, ...) covering active + radiated. Yields ~840 entities.
2. Gap-fill phase — for each prefix (RA-, RBK-) compute observed sequence, probe gaps + 5 entries past the max via direct register-no lookup. Yields the final ~20 missing.

Next steps (TODO for follow-up agents)

Quick wins (1-2h each)

1. Pensii private — data.asfromania.ro/scr/adeziuniFP likely has same captcha-bypass trick. ~7-15 fund administrators is small but high-value (NN, BCR Pensii, Allianz-Țiriac Pensii, etc.).

2. SEE passporting list — asfromania.ro/ro/a/2082. EU-wide insurers selling RCA in Romania. Probably HTML table on the page itself.

Medium (3-5h)

3. Piață de capital register (SSIF, SAI, AOPC, depozitari) — typically PDF/Excel attachments at asfromania.ro/uploads/articole/. ~50 entities total. Replicates the fonduri.beneficiar_anunt Excel-parser pattern.

4. Intermediari secundari (RIS) — large (~thousands) but mostly individuals (no CUI). May not be worth the effort vs. corporate registers.

Refresh policy

Recommended: weekly cron (registry changes are slow — new authorizations ~weekly, radiation events monthly). Estimated full scrape: ~10 min wall.
