About the register

Registrar General's Department (Registry of Companies)

The register of companies for The Bahamas is maintained by the Registrar General's Department, which sits under the Office of the Attorney-General and Ministry of Legal Affairs; a dedicated Registrar of Companies leads the companies function. Two regimes run side by side: domestic (regular) companies incorporated under the Companies Act 1992, and International Business Companies (IBCs) incorporated under the International Business Companies Act 2000. The Registry also administers foundations, exempted limited partnerships, segregated accounts companies and non-profit companies, and its office of the Registrar was placed on a new statutory footing by the Registrar of Companies Act 2024.

Company services run electronically through the Department's CARS platform. Incorporation of an IBC is submitted by a licensed financial and corporate service provider, with express (one-hour) and regular (48-hour) processing tracks; domestic incorporations, name reservations, changes of name and document filings are handled through the same platform.

The companies database is open to public searching online. Any member of the public with a valid credit or debit card can register on the CARS portal and run a company search against the Registry's company files and documents at the Registry's posted fee of $100 per search.
