🇪🇬 Egypt · Startup Visa
Entrepreneur and startup visa programs, investment thresholds, and application criteria.
Egypt does not use one broad public “startup visa” label for every founder. Founder routes usually combine GAFI company or investment procedures with the correct entry, residence and work-permit status for the founder’s role.
- GAFI is the starting point for many incorporated founder or investor routes.
- Tourist entry should not be treated as permission to operate locally.
- Residence, banking and hiring should be planned together before launch.
