TL;DR. Mali’s commercial registry is the RCCM (Registre du Commerce et du Credit Mobilier). A live GET of https://rccm.ohada.org timed out after HTTP 301 to HTTPS (exit 28, 0 bytes) on Direct and SOCKS. curl -k also 000. This is not NXDOMAIN: DNS resolves to 160.154.48.18. https://www.cci.ml is HTTP 200 Direct and SOCKS (title: Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie du Mali; html lang=en). That page is a chamber site, not an RCCM search form. XOF/USD fees and Instant are not live-cited. lastVerifiedUtc is 2026-09-04.
What is the official Mali business registry?
Mali’s commercial registry is the Registre du Commerce et du Credit Mobilier (RCCM), under OHADA’s Uniform Act Relating to General Commercial Law. Mali ratified the OHADA treaty in 1994. OHADA Uniform Acts are directly applicable in Mali.
The cited search host is https://rccm.ohada.org. A live GET returned HTTP 000 (timeout after 301 to HTTPS) on Direct and SOCKS. curl -k also 000. No official successor was observed on that wall. Do not invent one.
https://www.cci.ml is HTTP 200 Direct and SOCKS (title: Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie du Mali; html lang=en). That page is the chamber site. It is not an RCCM search form and is not treated as a registry successor. The only form on the loaded home is a footer newsletter subscribe control.
Entity types under OHADA Uniform Acts include SA, SARL, SNC, GIE, individual traders, and branches of foreign companies. Those labels were not re-read on a live RCCM search UI.
What can you search?
The OHADA RCCM search UI was not observed. https://rccm.ohada.org timed out on HTTPS both egresses. Corporate name, trade name, RCCM number, and legal-form field lists are not live-cited from that wall.
How much does it cost?
| Item | Cost (XOF) | Cost (USD, approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| OHADA portal search | Unknown | Unknown |
| RCCM extract | Unknown | Unknown |
| Certified extract via intermediary | Unknown | Unknown |
No live tariff was present on the timed-out host. XOF 50,000-100,000, EUR 119, and USD 130 figures are dropped. priceMax 0 means Unknown, not verified free.
Do you need a local account or ID?
cci.ml HTTP 200 home has no User ID, Password, or RCCM login field. The loaded form is a footer newsletter. No local-ID field for RCCM search is on that HTML. accountRequired No and localIdRequired No are that observed CCIM home HTML. They are not an RCCM application-UI finding. The OHADA portal HTML was not retrieved.
Is the website in English?
Partial. cci.ml HTTP 200 is html lang=en with a French title (Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie du Mali) and French news copy. The OHADA RCCM portal HTML was not retrieved.
What’s the turnaround time?
Unknown. Instant and 10-21 business day claims are not live-cited from a 000 host.
Is there an API?
No public API was documented on the hosts reached in this check.
What you legally cannot do
OHADA registries typically prohibit bulk automated scraping. That terms text was not re-read on the timed-out host. Document the stated purpose of any registry request for an AML/KYC audit trail.
Practical tips for foreign compliance buyers
- Live wall. Treat rccm.ohada.org as unreachable from Direct and SOCKS until a later check returns HTML.
- CCIM is not the search. cci.ml is the chamber site (HTTP 200 both egresses). Do not treat it as a drop-in RCCM search.
- French-language documents. Official RCCM output, when obtained, is expected in French. That was not re-read on a live search UI.
- FATF. Mali’s FATF monitoring status was not re-fetched on this live pass. Check fatf-gafi.org at the time of use.
Alternatives if you cannot access the RCCM directly
- OHADA RCCM portal (rccm.ohada.org): HTTPS timeout on Direct and SOCKS.
- CCIM Mali (cci.ml): HTTP 200 chamber site, not RCCM search.
- Local legal firms in Bamako: still the practical route when the federated portal does not return.
Local data suppliers
No major international credit bureau with a Mali-specific retail product was re-verified on this check.

What entity types are registered with the RCCM in Mali?
OHADA forms (SA, SARL, SNC, GIE, traders, foreign branches) apply in Mali. Those labels were not re-read on a live search UI.
