Hi Ian

I don't have a business here in Hurghada but I am posting a link here for you to a Facebook page of a business owned by an English couple. I am sure if you message them they would give you plenty of information.
You will be given a lot of incorrect information by 'helpful' people so be careful. I have been told that you do not need to have an Egyptian partner to own a business here, although many will tell you that you do.
Be very careful about which lawyer you use. There are some that are okay but many are not good and some not trustworthy.
I have a very good lawyer that I use and also an English friend of mine uses him too. She has known him for a number of years and I have used him for two years. I am happy to give you his number if you would like to use him.

Here is the Facebook link

While you don't need an Egyptian partner to form an LLC, you do need at least another foreign partner. (LLC 2 partners). The director/manager must be Egyptian.
You do need a work permit to work in your company. It should stand at 3000 LE for the first few years of activities, reaching a maximum of 12,000 LE after 7 years.

Check at the Ministry of Manpower website.

I opened a design agency in Hurghada last year, together with an Egyptian partner. I got a work permit through it (which I need because I am not only the owner but also the graphic designer of my company). The procedure is long and expensive. There are various kinds companies, so the requirements are different. I opened the company through an independent accountant and can highly recommend him. His website is rgk-consulting.com

Does your accountant know anyone in Marketing?

Hi Tigerlily
