Watch out for

  • Compare the registered Arabic name, number, office and legal form; an English trading name alone is ambiguous.itda.gov.eg
  • A reserved name (from 8 February 2026 on Digital Egypt) is not a registered company.sis.gov.eg
  • Registration renews every five years, so check the extract's issue and renewal dates.itda.gov.eg

What we couldn't confirm

Ask Konexium about any company in Egypt. It reads the registry, the company's site and the news, and links every finding to its source.
