The country where Croma started and where coverage runs deepest

Colombia publishes more open registries than almost any country in the region, but each lives in its own portal, with its own form and its own rhythm. Croma queries RUES by NIT, the Rama Judicial by radicado or by name, SECOP by supplier or by entity, RUNT by plate, the Registraduría by cédula, and returns all of it in the same shape.

It is also where Croma Legal runs, the court monitoring that reviews more than a hundred thousand cases a day for banks and lenders such as Banco Finandina, and where every source has a provenance page explaining what it is, who operates it and where its limits are.

Identifiers

What you query with

  • NIT

    The tax identifier of companies, without its check digit. Opens RUES, Supersociedades, SECOP as a supplier and SICAAC.

  • Cédula

    The document of individuals. Queries validity at the Registraduría, the Policía, Procuraduría and Contraloría records, and ADRES affiliation, always with a legitimate purpose.

  • Radicado

    The 23 digits that identify a court case. Pulls the filings and parties from the Rama Judicial.

  • Plate

    The vehicle's registration. Returns the RUNT record and the SIMIT account status.

Legal framework

Ley 1581 de 2012 and public data

The registries Croma queries are public by law: the commercial registry, court cases, state procurement, disciplinary and fiscal records. Still, when the data identifies an individual, Ley 1581 de 2012 requires a legitimate and proportional purpose. Croma runs the query against the official source and returns the record; the purpose and the legal basis are yours. Results from the free tools stay in your browser and never in an indexable URL.

Frequently asked questions

Company registries (RUES, Supersociedades, SIEM), courts (Rama Judicial, SAMAI, Consejo de Estado, Corte Constitucional, Corte Suprema, Fiscalía, SICAAC), procurement (SECOP I and II, ANCP-CCE), individuals (Registraduría, Policía, Procuraduría, Contraloría, Contaduría, ADRES, RUAF, DNP), vehicles (RUNT, SIMIT) and regulation (Superfinanciera, DIAN, Función Pública, Imprenta Nacional). The full list is below, endpoint by endpoint.

It depends on the source. Lookups by identifier (a NIT, a radicado, a plate) run against the official registry at the moment of the request. Searches over large sources, such as SECOP or case law, answer from the dataset Croma keeps current with the whole source. The table shows each endpoint's mode.

Yes. Every Colombian endpoint has a free tool on this site, no login, with an hourly limit to prevent abuse. The API with a key removes the limit and adds batches, webhooks and the MCP server.

The product for legal and collections teams: load your debtor portfolio and Croma watches the Rama Judicial, TYBA and procedural publications every day, alerting you when a new filing appears. It runs on the same sources as the API.

Every answer names its source, and every Colombian source has a provenance page explaining what the registry is, who operates it, what it covers and what it does not. They are linked from every row of the table.
