Foreign private entities have the right to establish and own business enterprises and engage in all forms of remunerative activity in the Republic of the Congo. In fact, the country’s laws do not discriminate against foreign investors, which are treated the same way as domestic entities. The only sector-specific restriction concerns the petroleum sector, requiring that foreign businesses form a joint venture with the Congolese National Petroleum Company (SNPC).

In order to start an activity in Congo, investors must provide CFE with two copies of the company by-laws, two copies of capitalization documents, a copy of the company’s investment strategy, company-approved financial statements (when available), and ownership documents or lease agreements for the company’s offices in the Republic of the Congo.
