All of Africa's Business Laws. One Accessible Platform.

Africa's Business Law Library

Reliable legal information shouldn't be this hard to find.

Business laws across Africa—covering corporate structure, employment, taxation, environmental compliance, and more—are scattered across government websites, outdated publications, and expensive subscription services. This fragmentation creates uncertainty, increases costs, and slows growth for businesses, legal professionals, and policymakers alike.

Yamalé Alliance is changing that by building a comprehensive digital library of business-related laws from all 54 African countries.

What We Are Building

A centralized, searchable platform that collects and organizes the legal frameworks governing business across the continent.

 

Corporate and Commercial Law

Company formation, registration requirements, corporate governance, and commercial transactions.

 

Employment and Labor Law

Hiring requirements, employment contracts, labor rights, and workplace regulations.

 

Taxation

Corporate tax codes, VAT requirements, withholding obligations, and cross-border tax treaties.

 

Environmental Compliance
Environmental impact requirements, permits, waste management, and sustainability regulations.

Trade and Customs
Import/export regulations, licensing requirements, and customs procedures.

Sector-Specific Regulations
Industry-specific frameworks for mining, agriculture, telecommunications, energy, and more.
