Frequently asked questions
What is the VAT rate in Egypt?
Egypt's standard VAT rate is 14%, one of the higher rates in the MENA region. Reduced rates apply to specific items: 5% on machinery and equipment used in production, and 0% (zero-rated) on exports and certain services. Mandatory VAT registration applies above EGP 500,000 of annual taxable supplies. The Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) administers VAT, and e-invoicing is now mandatory for B2B transactions through the ETA portal.
What is the corporate tax rate in Egypt?
Egypt's corporate income tax rate is 22.5% on taxable profits for most companies. Oil and gas companies pay up to 40.55%. The Suez Canal Authority and similar state entities have separate rates. Corporate tax returns are filed annually with the ETA. Listed companies and large taxpayers face additional reporting requirements under the Large Taxpayer Center (LTC). Egypt also imposes a 10% withholding tax on dividends paid to non-residents (reduced under treaties).
What accounting standards do Egyptian companies use?
Egyptian companies follow Egyptian Accounting Standards (EAS), which are largely aligned with IFRS but contain local modifications issued by the Ministry of Investment.

The Egyptian Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) sets disclosure rules for listed and non-banking financial institutions. Banks follow CBE Banking Standards aligned with IFRS 9 and IFRS 16.

Related-party transactions must follow the arm's length principle. Companies above EGP 8 million in related-party transactions must file annual transfer pricing disclosures and maintain a Local File. Master File and Country-by-Country Reporting apply to multinational groups with consolidated revenue above EGP 3 billion. ETA conducts increasingly aggressive TP audits.
What is the Egyptian Pound (EGP) exchange rate situation in 2026?
The Egyptian Pound has undergone several devaluations since 2016, with the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) moving toward a more flexible exchange rate regime under IMF programs. Finance teams must apply IAS 21 carefully when consolidating EGP-denominated subsidiaries u2014 using closing rates for monetary items and historical rates where relevant. Dual reporting (EGP + USD) is common practice for multinational subsidiaries. The CBE and ETA issue specific guidance on the tax treatment of FX gains and losses.
