Egyptian advisory practice for foreign investors
Set up in Egypt without the bureaucratic chaos.
Rayan & Samir Consultation's is an Egyptian advisory practice for foreign investors. We advise on entity selection, manage the formation end-to-end, and stay on as your ongoing tax and compliance partner. A small partnership. Plain English. No surprises.
Why Rayan & Samir Consultation's
A practice, not an office
You work with our senior advisors directly — the same advisors on the first call, the formation, the tax planning, and the annual review. Not a faceless firm.
Decisions before paperwork
Most foreigners pick the wrong entity because no one walked them through the choice. We do the analysis first. The execution is the easy part.
Foreign investors are who we serve
The site is in English first because the work is in English first. Our clients come from the GCC, Türkiye, Europe, China, and across Africa.
Practice areas
Market Entry & Company Formation
The right entity for your business, sector, and capital. We cover LLC, One-Person Company, Joint-Stock, Free Zone (Law 72), and Foreign Office Branch — and we tell you which one is wrong before we agree on what is right.
Tax Advisory
Egyptian tax structure for foreign-owned entities, e-Invoice setup, VAT registration, audit defense, and quarterly planning. We design the tax position before the structure is locked in.
Regulatory & Licensing
Factory and shop licenses, industrial register, food safety, import-export cards, customs registration, Nafeza, and ACI. The full Egyptian regulatory map — navigated by a partnership that has walked it for 15+ years.
How an engagement works
01
Discovery call
A free 30-minute conversation in English. You describe the business, the capital, the partners, the timeline. We name the entities worth considering and tell you what's hard about each.
02
Advisory deliverable
A written memo with the recommended structure, the tax implications, the timeline, and the cost picture. You decide whether to proceed before any execution begins.
03
Execution managed
We personally handle name reservation, contract drafting, power of attorney, capital deposit, registration, tax card, and social insurance file. You receive weekly updates.
04
Handover and retainer
A one-hour session covering monthly obligations, the tax calendar, and who to call when. If you want, we stay on as your ongoing compliance advisor.
