Choose the right register

The justice ministry describes the RCCM as a court registry maintained under judicial supervision. Its July 2019 publication also identifies Niamey’s RCCM as the national file. Determine the competent office from the particular company and its registered office. [2]

The accessible E-Trésor catalogue distinguishes Extrait K bis RCCM from Attestation de non-inscription au RCCM. It lists CFA 10,000 and CFA 5,000 respectively. [1]

Search step by step

Request current company evidence

Identify company and registry
Use the full legal name, registered office and RCCM number. Ask for the current registered position and subsequent changes. A similar name alone is insufficient to identify the entity. [3]
Agree the document type with the registry
For a registered company, request Extrait K bis RCCM. For confirmation of non-registration, expressly request Attestation de non-inscription. This is a different document at a different price. Also ask about the geographic and temporal scope of the search. [1] [2]
Agree payment and delivery
Match the request to the official E-Trésor service. Pay only once the competent registry has confirmed the order, amount and payment reference. Agree certification, issue format, representation and overseas delivery beforehand. [1] [3]

Third-party access

OHADA rules provide for information to third parties. Electronic information, ordinary copies and expressly certified copies must be distinguished. Those rules do not establish a currently operational public search service in Niger or a particular delivery format. [3]

Avoid common mistakes

Contact the competent court registry for company records and follow its official payment instructions. [2] [1]
The historical court guide and current payment page serve different purposes. Do not apply an old procedural guide’s fee to a current order without checking. [2] [1]
