Registration of Manufacturers

Registration of Manufacturers

We register for foreign factories, brand owners and distribution centers with the GOEIC (General Organization for Export and Import Control).
In January 2016, the Ministry of Trade and Industry issued Decree 43/2016 amending Decree 92/2015 concerning the rules for the registration of factories and trademarks owners to export their products to the Arab Republic of Egypt.
All factories, trademark owners and distribution centers that want to export products listed below must register at GOEIC (General Organization for Export and Import Control). This decree will come into force two months after the date of its publication. This is expected by 16 March 2016.
