Research in Egypt
In Egypt, businesses are required to register with a Commercial Registry, which is maintained by the Egyptian Ministry of Justice. There are a number of regional commercial registries e.g. Cairo, Alexandria, Giza and other registries.
Copies of the official filed corporate certificates are available in Arabic with an accompanying English translation. Common company types in Egypt include the Limited Liability Company (LLC), known as the Shirkah Maḥdudah Al-Mas'ūliyyah (S.M.L.), and the Joint Stock Company (JSC), known as the Shirkah Muḥaddadah (S.A.E.).
