nts-bizno-cli#

Command-line wrapper for the NTS 사업자등록정보 진위확인 및 상태조회 서비스 (Korean National Tax Service business-registration API), exposed via data.go.kr / api.odcloud.kr.

Two official endpoints + two local conveniences:

All output is JSONL (one record per line) so it pipes straight into jq, csvkit, or downstream skills.

When to use this skill#

• B2B onboarding / KYB — verify a partner's business number is real and currently active before contract signing or payment release.
• Supplier-list cleanup — bulk-check thousands of b_no's, flag the closed (폐업자) and dormant (휴업자).
• Form-fill validation — confirm a user's typed b_no is structurally valid before hitting the API (saves quota and cost).
• Tax-invoice (세금계산서) issuance gate — Korean law requires verifying the counterparty's tax type (일반/간이/면세) before issuing; this returns it.
• Public-procurement (나라장터) prep — validate vendor records before bid submission.

Do not use this skill for#

• Address lookup → use juso-address-cli.
• Corporate-filings / disclosure data → use opendart-cli.
• Issuing the actual tax invoice → use unified-invoice.
• Looking up a business by name — NTS does not expose name-based search; you need the b_no first.

Prerequisites#

1. Get a serviceKey at https://www.data.go.kr (free, 1 business-day approval):

   • Search for " 국세청 사업자등록정보 진위확인 및 상태조회 서비스".
   • Click 활용신청 (one form per API). Both 상태조회 and 진위확인 are commonly approved on the same day. Free-tier quota is 10,000 requests/day for each.

2. Export the encoded key: bash

   export NTS_API_KEY='Ad9...%2BAbc%3D'    # paste the "일반 인증키 (Encoding)" value
   
   

   Use the Encoding key (URL-encoded) — the wrapper passes it through serviceKey= directly.

3. Dependencies: bash, curl, jq (default on macOS/Linux).

Commands#

1) Status lookup ( scripts/status.sh)#

bash

# Single
scripts/status.sh 124-81-00998

# Multiple (up to 100 per call)
scripts/status.sh 1248100998 220-81-62517 120-81-47521

Sample row:

json

{"b_no":"1248100998","b_no_formatted":"124-81-00998","b_stt_cd":"01","b_stt":"계속사업자","tax_type_cd":"01","tax_type":"부가가치세 일반과세자","end_dt":"","utcc_yn":"N","tax_type_change_dt":"","invoice_apply_dt":"","rbf_tax_type_cd":"","rbf_tax_type":""}

Status codes:

• b_stt_cd=01 → 계속사업자 (active)
• b_stt_cd=02 → 휴업자 (dormant)
• b_stt_cd=03 → 폐업자 (closed) — end_dt carries 폐업일.
• b_stt_cd="" → b_no not registered with NTS at all.

Tax-type codes:

• 01 부가가치세 일반과세자, 02 부가가치세 간이과세자, 03 부가가치세 면세사업자, 04 비영리법인, 05/ 06 외국 / 임시.

2) Authenticity check ( scripts/validate.sh)#

Single record — flags:

bash

scripts/validate.sh \
  --b-no 124-81-00998 \
  --start-dt 19690113 \
  --p-nm "한종희"

Batch — JSON file:

bash

cat > /tmp/payload.json <<'EOF'
{"businesses":[
  {"b_no":"1248100998","start_dt":"19690113","p_nm":"한종희","p_nm2":"","b_nm":"","corp_no":"","b_sector":"","b_type":""},
  {"b_no":"2208162517","start_dt":"19990602","p_nm":"최수연","p_nm2":"","b_nm":"","corp_no":"","b_sector":"","b_type":""}
]}
EOF
scripts/validate.sh --file /tmp/payload.json

Sample row:

json

{"b_no":"1248100998","b_no_formatted":"124-81-00998","valid":true,"valid_code":"01","valid_msg":"확인","status":{...}}

valid: true ⇔ NTS confirms a match. valid: false ( valid_code:"02") means at least one of (b_no, 개업일, 대표자명) does not match — valid_msg carries the reason.

3) Local checksum ( scripts/format.sh)#

No network, no key. Cheap pre-filter before hitting the API.

bash

scripts/format.sh 1248100998 abc-def-1234 220-81-62517
# {"input":"1248100998","normalized":"1248100998","formatted":"124-81-00998","valid_checksum":true}
# {"input":"abc-def-1234","normalized":"abcdef1234","formatted":"abcdef1234","valid_checksum":false}
# {"input":"220-81-62517","normalized":"2208162517","formatted":"220-81-62517","valid_checksum":true}

Algorithm (NTS official): weights [1,3,7,1,3,7,1,3,5] over the first 9 digits, plus floor(d8*5/10), mod 10, complement to 10. Saves you a network round trip on typo'd inputs.

4) Bulk processor ( scripts/bulk.sh)#

bash

# File input — one b_no per line, comments with #
cat > /tmp/suppliers.txt <<'EOF'
124-81-00998   # Samsung Electronics
220-81-62517   # NAVER
120-81-47521   # Kakao
123-45-67890   # bogus typo
EOF
scripts/bulk.sh /tmp/suppliers.txt > /tmp/audit.jsonl

# stdin
psql -At -c 'SELECT bno FROM suppliers' | scripts/bulk.sh - > /tmp/audit.jsonl

bulk.sh runs the local checksum first; bad entries get flagged with {"error":"checksum_failed"} and never burn API quota. Good entries are batched in groups of 100 (NTS hard limit).

Common pipelines#

bash

# Find all suppliers that closed
scripts/bulk.sh suppliers.txt | jq -c 'select(.b_stt_cd=="03") | {b_no, end_dt}'

# Tax-type breakdown
scripts/bulk.sh suppliers.txt | jq -r '.tax_type' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

# Onboarding gate — only proceed if 계속사업자 + 일반과세
scripts/status.sh "$BNO" \
  | jq -e 'select(.b_stt_cd=="01" and .tax_type_cd=="01")' >/dev/null \
  && echo "ok to issue 세금계산서" \
  || { echo "blocked"; exit 1; }

Errors & quirks#

• code:-4 "등록되지 않은 인증키 입니다." — your NTS_API_KEY is wrong or hasn't been approved yet for this specific endpoint. Check data.go.kr → 마이페이지 → 활용신청 현황.
• code:-22 "사용한도..." — you've exceeded your free-tier daily quota. Apply for 활용 한도 증가 in 마이페이지.
• The validate endpoint counts each item in businesses[] separately against quota; status counts only one request regardless of b_no[] length. Prefer status for cheap status sweeps.
• NTS returns historical end_dt even when b_stt_cd != "03" if the business was once closed and re-opened — read both fields.
• start_dt on validate must be YYYYMMDD (no dashes); pre-1900 / future dates are rejected.
