Choose the right register
GNI stands for Guichet Numérique de l’Investissement. It is part of ANPI-Gabon’s investment promotion services. Alongside company formation, it contains a public company announcements section. Start there when researching another company, rather than submitting a formation application. [4] [1]
Names and abbreviations explained
Search step by step
Download a published company record
Open “Journal officiel”
Open “Journal officiel – Publications officielles”. Use FR or EN at the top to select the interface language. Select name search when you know the company name or ANPI number. The portal also offers a date-range search. [1]
Filter by name and legal form
Enter the name or ANPI number in the corresponding field. Selecting name search also enables the legal-form filter. Click “Soumettre” or “Submit”. Results may span several pages. [1]
Check the result against the PDF announcement
The result card gives the ANPI identifier and further company details, including legal form, capital and date. Select “Voir” to open the notice as a PDF. It also provides the RCCM number and representation details. Compare both identifiers to identify the company. [1] [5]
Request further records for the current position
An incorporation announcement records the published formation event. For a current extract or subsequent changes, ask ANPI-Gabon to identify the responsible registry office and ordering route. GNI lists gni@investingabon.ga and +241 66 11 25 60. [5] [3]

What the PDF contains
A formation notice gives the publication date and details of the new company. These include its name, legal form, capital and RCCM number, with representation and activity details. It records the formation. Later changes need to be considered separately. [5]
Records in the company’s own GNI account
The formation guide describes a different route: after the application is processed, applicants receive SMS and email notification. Their FUE and generated corporate documents are then available in their own GNI account. [2]
Search language and document language
The search form has French and English labels. Linked notice PDFs are in French. If you need to submit the document in English, ask the recipient which translation they accept. [1] [5]
Formation charges are not research charges
Public search and linked notice PDFs are free. Company formation fees cover a different service. Ask the responsible registry for the price of an additional certified copy. [2] [1] [5]
