Details

Rwanda's company register is held and maintained by the Rwanda Development Board (RDB). Their website is http://www.rdb.rw/.

The company register is not currently publicly available but I understand that work is currently underway to allow the RDB to supply this data to the National Institute of Statistics of Rwanda (NISR) so that it could be published on the NISR website to provide public access to the data.

There is an old company register, but it only contain the name and the date it was register - http://org.rdb.rw/inf/Public/Products/NameSearch.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

Data is correct.
