Registry

Sijilat commercial registration system

Bahrain Ministry of Industry and Commerce

Registration and permission to conduct a particular activity are separate questions. A company identity match should therefore be followed by the relevant licensing assessment when the transaction involves a regulated or otherwise permission-dependent activity. Preserve the source and scope of each check.

Keep the full CR and branch reference. A branch should be linked to its underlying legal entity.

  • Keep the full CR and branch reference. A branch should be linked to its underlying legal entity.

Questions

Which identifiers are needed to search companies in Bahrain?

Record the full CR reference and any branch suffix exactly as shown. Establish whether the result concerns the principal entity or a branch or location.

Does commercial registration prove that an activity is licensed?

No. Identify the competent authority and check the permission relevant to the entity, location and activity. Registration and operating permissions answer different questions.

Can the search establish all beneficial owners?

Accessible registration information may provide only part of the ownership chain. Confirm available disclosure and obtain supporting shareholder or control evidence where needed.
