Start Your Congo Business View Corporate Travel solution

The Republic of Congo's business environment operates under the OHADA Uniform Act, with company formation handled through the Centre de Formalités des Entreprises (CFE) in Brazzaville or Pointe-Noire. Global Bush Travel coordinates the full market entry sequence for international operators: drafting SARL or SA statutes, registering with the Registre du Commerce et du Crédit Mobilier (RCCM), obtaining a Numéro Identifiant Unique (NIU) from the DGI, enrolling with the CNSS, and applying for sector-specific permits from the Direction Générale des Hydrocarbures or the Comité de Privatisation. For companies targeting Pointe-Noire's Special Economic Zone (ZES), we handle investment agreement applications with the Agence de Promotion des Investissements (API-Congo) and coordinate with Zone Economique du Congo (ZECO) management. Brazzaville-based companies benefit from our proximity to ministerial departments for faster approvals on banking, telecom, and public works concessions.
