Benin Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Benin company register data is filed on the Registre du Commerce et du Crédit Mobilier (RCCM, Trade and Personal Property Credit Register), created under the OHADA Uniform Act on General Commercial Law and held at the Tribunal de Commerce de Cotonou, with access largely in-person and paper-based rather than searchable online. None could be confirmed: the OHADA framework itself does not mandate a separate UBO registry, and no specific Beninese decree establishing one, together with its ownership threshold or access rules, is published in verifiable form. Ownership beyond the RCCM's formation-stage filing currently has no confirmed central beneficial-ownership database to draw from.
