Corporate Business Entry & Registration Services in Equatorial Guinea

Service in Equatorial Guinea

Equatorial Guinea is governed by a Presidential system with strong executive control over the hydrocarbons sector, making business entry a process that requires both formal regulatory compliance and strategic government relations management. Global Bush Travel guides international companies through Malabo's company registration at the Registro Mercantil, obtains the Número de Identificación Fiscal from the Ministerio de Hacienda, coordinates INSESO employer registration, and facilitates approval of operational permits from the Ministerio de Minas e Hidrocarburos under Hydrocarbon Law 8/2006. Presidential Decree 240 mandates local content requirements: 25% Equatoguinean equity in oil service contracts and priority employment for nationals. Our service includes drafting joint-venture agreements with approved national partners, coordinating CEMAC regional compliance, and managing formalities for both Bioko Island (Malabo) and mainland (Bata and Ebebiyín) jurisdictions. We maintain active relationships with GEPetrol and Sonagas for companies entering the upstream and midstream energy sectors.
