The Official MENA Chart (Arabic: قائمة أفضل أغاني مينا الرسمية, romanized: Qāʾimat Afḍal Aghānī Mīnā r-Rasmiyya) is an International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) sanctioned music chart covering Middle Eastern and Northern Africa (MENA) countries.
Background
The chart was announced by IFPI on November 29, 2022. It includes data from 13 countries: Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates. The data is collected by the Spanish BMAT Music Company and is released every Tuesday.[1] Four more charts were launched in October 2023, tracking the national song performance in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt.
