Step-by-Step Guide

Legalize and Certify the Work Contract

Your first step starts abroad; you must certify your work contract or official job invitation at the Egyptian Consulate/Embassy in the host country, or the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs if issued locally. Plain faxed or printed email contracts without original authentication stamps will be rejected to protect legal rights and avoid fraudulent job schemes.

Issue a Recent Targeted Criminal Record Card

Visit your local police station or civil registry, and request a recent criminal record card (Fish) not older than 3 months. Make sure the target authority field reads: (General Administration of Work Permits). Forms addressed to any other department will be rejected, and digitized prints are preferred for speedier clearance.

Madam Afaf Warning: My dear, the Egyptian Embassy stamps on the work contract are the primary gate to approval. If the criminal record check (Fish) is addressed to any entity other than the 'General Administration of Work Permits', it will be rejected, so pay attention!

File Submission & Fee Calculation

Go to the Work Permits Administration in your governorate, grab the official application form, fill it in in both languages and submit it with original documents (Contract, Fish, Passport, ID copies). The reviewing officer will determine the actual charges and stamp duties according to your qualification, permit duration, and file status at review time.

Pay Fees and Receive Application Receipt

Go to the cashier and pay the estimated fees in cash, then collect your official paper payment receipt. The clerk will ask you to wait for a few hours on the same day or return on a specified pickup date (typically 1-3 business days max) to print and hand over the secure card.

Final Pick Up & Document Audit

When collecting the printed secure permit card, carefully check the job title against your contract, expiry date, host country name, and your digital face photo. A minor typo could flag issues at airport security, forcing you to go through re-issuance. It's recommended to photograph the permit card and store a digital copy.
