This route does not apply to Egyptian nationals. Citizenship by investment is a way for foreign nationals to acquire Egyptian citizenship. A person who is already an Egyptian citizen has nothing to gain from it and cannot use it.
If you are an Egyptian national interested in residency or citizenship in another country, a different programme would apply. The official authority for the Egyptian route is listed for reference only.
For foreign nationals, Egypt has described several routes, including a treasury donation, a real estate purchase in government projects, a business investment with an added donation and a bank deposit refundable after a set period. None of these are relevant to a person who already holds Egyptian citizenship. Confirm any detail with the official authority.
If you already hold Egyptian citizenship, focus your planning on the country where you want residency or a second citizenship, then confirm the rules with that country official authority. The Get Matched route below can point you to vetted, independent advisors.
