Burkina Faso Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Burkina Faso company register data is filed on the national RCCM (Registre du Commerce et du Crédit Mobilier), digitized through the eFN RCCM platform launched in December 2023 under the OHADA regional framework. Beneficial ownership has its own operational, electronic register — the Registre Électronique des Bénéficiaires Effectifs, launched around September 2024 — built on Law No. 016-2016/AN of 3 May 2016 on money laundering, Decree No. 2022-0234, and the regional UEMOA AML directive. Its access basis and the specific ownership percentage that triggers a filing are not published in verifiable form, though the register itself is confirmed live and electronically searchable in principle.
