COBE Re-Registration
TRM Legal Counsel assists businesses across Zimbabwe in meeting the Corporate Ownership and Beneficial Entities (COBE) Register requirements introduced under Statutory Instrument 108 of 2025.
Under this regulation, companies, trusts, partnerships and other legal entities are required to submit or update their beneficial ownership information with the Registrar of Companies and Other Business Entities (the COBE Register). These disclosures must accurately identify the individuals who ultimately own or control the entity.
Our legal team provides practical, end-to-end compliance support, helping businesses prepare, verify and submit the required beneficial ownership filings in accordance with Zimbabwean law.
