How to look up a CNO
Start with the identifier you have
For a known work, enter its 12-digit CNO number. To research a company, use its complete CNPJ. The search includes links under the same company root and identifies previous links. To find works in an area, select a municipality and state. Then filter by area, type and status. Start with a few filters so that you can understand the result. Each page shows up to 20 records. Use the next page to continue. Check the source date before comparing records or using the information for a commercial decision.
Understand what the registry records
Federal Revenue maintains the National Construction Registry. It records construction works and their responsible parties. The CNO number identifies the work; the CNPJ identifies a linked company. These identifiers serve different purposes. Radar can show location, area, construction type, category, dates and status. An empty field means that the information is unavailable in the consulted snapshot. Do not use a registry record as evidence of physical completion, a municipal permit, tax compliance or paid contributions. Each of those checks requires its own documents and sources.
Check works with a CEI registration
CNO took the place of the INSS-specific register for construction works. Federal Revenue provides a procedure to register a work in CNO from its CEI registration. If you manage an older work, check its registration through the official service first. Radar's public lookup does not register, migrate or edit works. It searches an open-data file that has already been published. If a work is missing, check its number and the source date. Absence from this snapshot does not prove that the work was never registered.
Use Federal Revenue for the certificate
To obtain your work's official certificate, open Federal Revenue's CNO lookup service. Sign in to its authenticated environment with your gov.br account and select a work you are authorized to access. Use the registration and status certificate option on the lookup page. Check the document before sharing it. Access depends on the relationship or representation recognized by Federal Revenue. Radar does not ask for your password, sign in to e-CAC or issue a document on behalf of the authority.
Research another company through open data
Authenticated access and public research have different coverage. In the official service, access to a work depends on the caller's relationship to it. To research another company, Radar uses the public CNO file. This subset contains only works with a company as the responsible party. Works registered to individuals are excluded. When a name or address contains personal information, the source applies the product's masks. Use the source date to understand when the record applies. Public research does not open restricted company account data or replace authorization.
Read the status together with the company link
A work can be active, suspended, stopped, closed or void in the registry. That status describes the work's record, not the company's financial condition. Check the responsible party's role and the available dates too. A company may have been responsible in the past or may share responsibility with another company. Previous links are identified and can include an end date. The area is the value recorded by the source, with its unit. A larger area does not prove revenue. An active work does not guarantee a sale, and a closed work does not prove paid debt.
Save the research and check for changes
After checking the filters, save the search or download the current page as CSV. That file contains the page's results, not the entire database. To receive company changes, use CNPJ monitoring and check the available coverage before purchasing a paid feature. An alert depends on a valid source update. If the official file fails or is incomplete, the lookup retains the last valid snapshot and reports its update state. Check the reference and dates to distinguish an unchanged work from a database that has not yet received an update.

Questions about construction works
How do I see a company's construction works?
Select CNPJ and enter the company number. The free search returns 20 records per page, with status, location and area. It includes the same company root and identifies previous links. You can also search by the 12-digit CNO number.
Do works registered to individuals show up?
No. The lookup brings only the works whose responsible party is a company (CNPJ); works of individuals are left out, because their name is usually the owner's.
Is it useful for finding customers?
Search a city and state, then filter by area, type and status. Save the search, download the current page as CSV and open the companies you want to watch. Contact details use the existing paid reveal.
How recent is the data?
Each result shows its source date. We check the source daily. If the official file is incomplete, the last valid snapshot stays available with an update warning.
Can I be alerted about a new work?
Watch the company to see new works and status changes when a valid source update arrives. Link your account for email alerts. One company and one search are free. The monitored portfolio adds 99 shared company or search slots: by card, it renews every month until you cancel; by Pix, it lasts 30 days.
What is the National Construction Registry?
CNO is the Federal Revenue registry of construction works and their responsible parties. Its number has 12 digits. A registry lookup does not prove tax compliance, completion or payment of contributions.
What is the difference between CNO and CEI?
CNO replaced the INSS-specific register for construction works. Federal Revenue provides registration in CNO from a work's CEI registration. Use the official service to check or migrate it. Radar only reads the available open-data snapshot.
How do I obtain my work's official certificate?
Open Federal Revenue's official CNO service, sign in with your gov.br account and select a work you are authorized to access. Use the registration and status certificate option in that lookup. Radar does not access your account or issue this document.
Why does a third-party work lookup use open data?
Federal Revenue's authenticated lookup checks the caller's relationship to the work. To research another company, Radar uses the public CNO file and shows its date and coverage limits. Only works with a company as the responsible party are included. Product masks protect personal data.
