Preparation and legalization of documents and powers of attorney in your country for Egypt

Any document that must be submitted to the state authorities of the Arab Republic of Egypt must be translated and certified. As in any country, documents are accepted only in Arabic. Any consulate in Egypt requires translation into their own languages, and any consulate issues documents for action in Egypt in Arabic (for example, marriage certificates for women getting married, permission to represent the interests of prisoners or arrested citizens).

Our company provides services and assistance in the preparation and certification of the necessary documents that must and will work in Egypt:

1) If you open a branch or a commercial representative office in Egypt

Then you will need all the statutory documents of the main company, a power of attorney for a lawyer, an accountant, separately for your own representative (if you need it), registration documents (this is the Charter of the company, registration data of the company ), a preliminary contract with an Egyptian counterparty for the provision of services to them by your parent company, tax documents with your taxation scheme in the country of the parent company. All of the above documents must be translated into Arabic and checked by a lawyer. Translations must be notarized, legalized by the authorities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the country, in some cases the Ministry of Justice. And, most importantly, the documents must have the seal of the Egyptian consulate, which is located in major cities in other countries (Information on consulates from 2022, July):
