Egypt Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Egypt company register data is filed under the Commercial Register Law No. 34 of 1976, with a dedicated Ultimate Beneficial Owner register added by Ministerial Decree No. 41 of 2020, requiring every registered entity to maintain its own UBO file naming any natural person who owns or controls 25% or more of its shares or voting rights. Its access basis is not published in verifiable form, and the decree itself does not define what counts as 'control' beyond direct ownership, leaving some ambiguity for indirect holdings. Companies must retain the UBO register throughout the entity's life and for five years after dissolution.
