The initiative, which aims to “facilitate the import of cars for personal use for Egyptians residing abroad,” started on November 15 and will end on March 14 2023
A simplified procedural guide has been issued in both Arabic and English on customs procedures for imports under a temporary release system
The implementation is aimed at turning Egypt into an advanced global logistic zone that utilizes the cutting-edge technologies
This would reduce import costs by facilitating customs release times and accurately identifying the parties to the transaction in accordance with the procedures
Maait explained in an official statement that the new adjustments were meant to support the local investment environment
