During and following the revolution, the management of the central company registry was disrupted, and the regional one-stop shops were forced to suspend their registry operations. As there is no national electronic company registry, all companies need to register in Tripoli, requiring notaries from other cities to travel to finalise the process. This creates additional business registration complexities and costs for entrepreneurs and investors living outside of Tripoli. It requires the approval of a commission represented by multiple agencies, including the Social Security Administration, the Labour Administration, the Tax Administration, the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Economy.
