Egypt Publishes Foreign Citizenship Approvals for 42 Citizens

Egypt’s Official Gazette has published decisions allowing 42 citizens to acquire foreign nationalities.

Among the published measures is Interior Ministry Decision No. 1381 of 2026, which grants permission to 21 citizens.

The decision allows those 21 citizens to retain their Egyptian nationality while acquiring foreign citizenship. They will therefore not be required to give up their Egyptian citizenship under the approval.

The available details do not identify the citizens or the foreign nationalities involved, nor do they specify the terms of the approvals for the remaining citizens.
