The Monaco Economic Board (MEB) is the benchmark institution for economic development and international promotion of the Principality. Set up in 1999 as a private-law association, it acts as the Government of Monaco's operational arm to support local businesses, attract foreign investors and coordinate Monaco's economic development initiatives.

The MEB has three main missions. Firstly, as Monaco's Chamber of Commerce, it supports Monegasque companies in their local and international growth. Its members - over 600 companies from all sectors - benefit from privileged access to a unique network of opportunities, advice and personalized services.

Secondly, through Invest Monaco, MEB actively contributes to the attractiveness of the Principality by prospecting high-potential entrepreneurs and investors wishing to set up in the Principality. This strategic role reinforces Monaco's position as a dynamic economic and financial center, renowned for its stability, rigorous regulatory framework and exceptional quality of life.

Finally, the MEB plays an economic coordination role, federating public and private initiatives to promote Monaco. Thanks to its institutional partnerships and numerous collaborations, it guarantees greater coherence and efficiency in the actions carried out in the service of companies and the Principality's image.

Every year, the MEB organizes over fifty events: economic missions abroad, thematic conferences, B2B meetings, delegation visits and training programs. These actions enable Monegasque companies to project themselves internationally, while strengthening their ties within the local economic fabric.

As a member of theInternational Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the MEB also represents the Comité National Monégasque within this worldwide organization. This international presence confirms its role as a strategic relay and spokesperson for Monaco's companies in global economic debates.

A key institution, the Monaco Economic Board illustrates the Principality's determination to combine tradition, innovation and international openness. Through its expertise and daily action, it contributes not only to the growth of local companies, but also to Monaco's economic and institutional influence on the world stage.

The Monaco Economic Board’s International Formalities Department issues and endorses various documents for companies in the Principality, enabling them to complete export formalities. These procedures have been gradually digitized on the dedicated online portal GEFI (Electronic Management of International Formalities), administered by the Paris Chamber of Commerce. Indeed, the territory of Monaco and the territory of France form a customs union. Export formalities are common to both countries. The MEB is therefore part of the network of French chambers of commerce for these types of services.

On the GEFI portal, our team processes the following documents:
- ATA Carnet
- Certificate of Origin
- Document legalization
- EUR 1
- Signature registration

To use the GEFI portal, you must create an account.

Monegasque companies wishing to log in to the portal for the first time or needing assistance with their procedures can schedule an appointment with the MEB using the contact information provided at the bottom of this page.

The department is available to companies in the Principality for various inquiries regarding exports and imports in general, export regulations, shipping and transport documents, goods inspection, accompanying documents for goods shipped to a third country, local and international contacts, applicable legislation, Incoterms, etc.
