The standard practice is for the Gabonese Presidency to review foreign investment contracts after ministerial-level negotiations are completed. However, the lack of a standardized procedure for new entrants to negotiate deals with the government can lead to uncertain and time-consuming negotiations.
ANPI-Gabon has a single-window registration process that allows domestic and foreign investors to register their business in 48 hours. Firms are required to obtain authorization from the Ministry of Labour before hiring foreigners. Foreign workers must obtain permits before working in Gabon (depending on the availability of Gabonese nationals to fill the job in question), with quotas that can be set for the number of foreign workers. As an example, the Gabonese government decided to limit foreign workers in the oil sector to a maximum of 10% of a company’s workforce and to require that Gabonese occupy all executive posts.
