A foreign spouse of an Egyptian national may generally apply for residency on the basis of the marriage. The marriage must first be properly documented, and the application is subject to the conditions in force at the time.

Keep in mind

  • Residency is usually granted for a defined period and must be renewed
  • Keep certified copies of your marriage documents available
  • Start renewal preparations well before expiry
