GOEIC Registration: Exporting Consumer Goods from India to Egypt

Egypt only lets certain consumer goods in if the factory or brand owner is registered with GOEIC (General Organization for Export and Import Control) under Decree 43/2016 and later decrees. If you aren’t registered, your importer’s shipment waits at the port. PCN compiles, translates, legalises and submits your registration file.

The list is set by decree and changes over time. PCN checks your HS codes against the current list first.

Registration File

Keep It Active

Registered documents with an expiry date, such as your ISO certificate, must be renewed within 30 days of expiry. Missing this can lead to suspension and, after warnings, deregistration, which blocks clearance. PCN tracks these dates for you.

GOEIC Registration FAQs

Who must register: the exporter or the factory?

The factory, or the brand owner for branded goods. A trading company alone generally doesn’t meet the requirement.

Is ISO 9001 mandatory?

A quality certificate from an accredited body is required. ISO 9001 is the usual choice.

Do telecom products need anything else?

Yes, NTRA equipment approval.

How long does registration take?

Typically a few weeks after documents are legalised, depending on GOEIC review.

Requirements, portals and fees change often. PCN confirms the applicable rules for each product before quoting. Certificates are issued by the relevant authority, accredited certification body or notified body.
