Yemen company search, check & credit report

Verify any registered Yemeni company — investigated in-country and delivered in English.

Yemen has been profoundly affected by ongoing conflict since 2014-2015, with the country operating under fragmented governance: the internationally-recognised government (Aden-based PLC), the Houthi authorities (Sana'a), and the Southern Transitional Council in some southern areas. Companies were historically registered with the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

What our Yemen company report includes

Our Yemen reports draw on accessible commercial register records (subject to which administrative area applies), available tax data, and accessible court records; fees may apply for certain records. Coverage of any individual source depends on what the subject company has filed and what is publicly accessible at the time of the search.

Risk & public records

Note on Yemeni data: Yemen operates under fragmented administrative control with the internationally-recognised government, Houthi authorities and the Southern Transitional Council each controlling different territories. The Houthis (Ansarallah) are designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the US since 2024; OFAC, EU and UN sanctions also apply to specific individuals and entities.

Why verify a Yemeni company?

Yemen's conflict-fragmented governance and the recent US FTO designation of the Houthis fundamentally affect the verification environment. Identifying the administrative area in which the counterparty operates is the first substantive question: implications differ materially between recognised-government areas, Houthi-controlled areas and STC-controlled areas.
