Company Registration in Rwanda
What to confirm, through official sources and qualified professionals, when registering a company in Rwanda.
Who handles registration
Company and business registration in Rwanda is handled through the Rwanda Development Board (RDB), specifically the Office of the Registrar General (ORG). Many official services are also accessed via the government portals (org.rdb.rw and Irembo).
Questions to confirm
Rather than assume a fixed process, confirm the current details for your situation:
- Which entity type fits your plans (and the implications of each)?
- What documents and information are required?
- What are the current steps, fees and timelines?
- What is needed for a company with foreign ownership?
- How does registration connect to your tax (TIN) and banking setup?
