Choose the right register
Start with the name in Arabic script and the registered location. The Sana’a search distinguishes individual traders, companies and commercial agencies. A partial-name query can return multiple entities. [1] [2]
The Aden ministry links to a separate name-enquiry service at search.moit-ye.info. Identify existing documents by issuer, registration location, number and date. [4] [5]

Search step by step
From a search to the competent registry office
Select companies
Open the Sana’a name enquiry, enter part of the Arabic name, select سجل تجاري - شركات for companies and press بحث. سجل تجاري - أفراد covers individual traders; وكالات تجارية covers commercial agencies. [1]
Compare name, legal form and location
Check الاسم التجاري (trade name), نوع الشركة (company type) and مركز الشركة (registered location), including any further results pages. [2]
Enquire about documents with the correct issuer
Use the registry details on an existing certificate. Ask the issuing office about a current confirmed copy, third-party access and representation. The Sana’a portal lists info@moit.gov.ye; the Aden contact route is through moit-ye.com. [3] [4]
Documents and fees

A service account handles the applicant’s business transactions
Company applications in Sana’a require a personal account activated by SMS. The public name search does not require this account. [3] [2]
Notices supplement registry research
The Sana’a ministry supplies dated Trade Bulletin editions with digital reading links. The new publication platform still labels its separate company section as coming soon. Check the specific issue and subject of the notice. An old publication evidences the event at that time. [6] [7]
Avoid common mistakes
- The commercial-agency category is not a general company register. Select the appropriate category. [1]
