The Ministry of Labour has instructed labor inspectors to conduct intensive, phased inspection campaigns at workplaces across Egypt to ensure compliance with the country’s new labor law, which came into effect on September 1, 2025. The inspections will focus on identifying foreign nationals working in Egypt without the required work permits and authorizations. Employers who breach these laws face fines ranging from EGP 20,000 to EGP 100,000, with penalties doubled for repeat offenses.
