The Mbomou River or Bomu (also spelled M'bomou in French) forms part of the boundary between the Central African Republic (CAR) and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).[1][2]

The Mbomou merges with the Uele River to form the Ubangi River.[3] The Ubangi, a tributary of the Congo, also serves as part of the border between the CAR and the DRC.
