Egypt Citizenship by Investment


Egypt is the largest country in the Middle East, with a rapidly growing economy, a strategic location connecting Africa, Asia, and Europe, and access to both the Red Sea and the Mediterranean. In 2020, the country officially launched its economic citizenship program, allowing foreign investors to legally obtain Egyptian citizenship.

The program is governed by Law No. 190 of 2019 and Prime Ministerial Decree No. 876 of 2023.


Applicants may submit their documents remotely through an authorized agent. The citizenship process typically takes 3 to 6 months and requires no residency, language tests, or renunciation of existing citizenship (subject to the laws of the applicant’s home country).


An Egyptian passport offers visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to over 50 countries and opens opportunities to do business across the Middle East, North Africa, and the Islamic world. Egypt also maintains an expanding network of double taxation and investment protection treaties with dozens of countries.


Our team provides full support at every stage – from selecting the optimal investment route to obtaining your citizenship and passport. Legal, transparent, and tailored to your strategic goals.

Feedback from our clients on Google
Initially we wanted to take advantage of the St. Kitts citizenship program through real estate investments. We approached several companies, but decided to work with Finextwin because here we were openly told about all the features of the real estate program and we decided to go through the donation. Thank you so much for your professionalism!
We obtained Grenada passports for our whole family with the help of Finextwin specialists. I would like to mention the manager's involvement in the process. He was in touch even on weekends. This helped us a lot in getting all the documents together quickly. Thank you very much for your work!
We received our St. Kitts passports with the help of another company, but we were not very pleased with the quality of work of the specialists. The deadline for renewing our passports came and we decided to turn to Finextwin for help. We regretted only one thing that we did not turn to them earlier. Everything was at the highest level.
