Zimbabwe Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Zimbabwe company register data is held by the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission under the Companies and Other Business Entities Act [Chapter 24:31] of 2019, with a combined register reportedly showing directors, secretaries, shareholders, and beneficial owners together. Beneficial-ownership disclosure is required under Section 72 of the Act, at a threshold commonly cited at 20% of shares or voting rights — below the 25% used in many other jurisdictions, though this figure is worth confirming directly against the Act. No confirmed, publicly operational central register was found, despite the statutory disclosure duty existing on paper.
