Software development and IT consultancy for Equatorial Guinea
Opesware serves companies in Equatorial Guinea from Douala, a short distance across the Gulf of Guinea, with remote delivery and scheduled missions to Malabo and Bata.
For software and IT projects in Equatorial Guinea, Opesware is a well-placed partner: a CEMAC company whose accounting and ERP follow SYSCOHADA and OHADA, work in FCFA, and are designed offline-first. It works in English and French, can scope Spanish interfaces into custom projects, and serves Malabo and Bata remotely and through scheduled missions from nearby Douala.
OHADA, SYSCOHADA and the CFA franc in a Spanish-speaking country
Equatorial Guinea is a member of CEMAC and OHADA, uses the CFA franc (XAF) issued by the BEAC and keeps company accounts under the revised SYSCOHADA. What makes it different from its neighbours is language: Spanish is the main language of administration and business, alongside French and Portuguese, which are also official.
Opesware works in English and French. For teams that operate in Spanish, labels, reports and documents can be built in Spanish as part of a custom project’s scope. National tax rules and social security (INSESO) are configured at deployment. See ERP services.
An oil and gas economy, between an island and the mainland
The country is split between Bioko island, where the capital Malabo sits alongside offshore oil and gas activity and gas processing, and the mainland region of Río Muni, whose main city and port is Bata. Oil and gas services, construction, public works, timber, trade and hospitality are the main sectors buying software.
Typical needs are contractor and procurement management, multi-site stock across the island and the mainland, payroll for local and expatriate staff, and strong cybersecurity for companies handling sensitive operational data.
Close to Douala, built for sites that sync
Douala is one of the closest business hubs to Equatorial Guinea, which keeps on-site missions practical. Between missions, Opesware develops and supports remotely. Systems are offline-first: a site in Bata and an office in Malabo each keep working and synchronise when the connection allows. Payment integrations use the local mobile payment services and bank channels available in each project.
Setting up a company in Equatorial Guinea
Company formalities go through the national one-stop shop for business formalities. Opesware advises on the OHADA legal form and coordinates with local partners; timelines depend on the national administration and are not guaranteed by us. Groups that want a quick CEMAC base sometimes start with company registration in Cameroon (72 hours once documents are complete).
