what happens when you buy property in egypt

[StHarmony]

When buying property in Egypt, you must sign a authenticated contract, pay the deposit, and complete official registration within 10 days at the local Real Estate Registry ("Tabu"). For foreigners, payment must be confirmed as remitted from abroad, and restrictions apply, such as a five-year ownership period before reselling. Post-purchase, you are responsible for registering the property, paying applicable taxes, and securing insurance.
