Egypt Delays New Criminal Procedure Law Until October 2027
The start date for Egypt’s new Criminal Procedure Law No. 174 of 2025 has been postponed by one year to give the relevant authorities more time to complete their preparations.
The law will now take effect on October 1, 2027, instead of the previously scheduled date of October 1, 2026.
The stated reason for the delay is readiness: the authorities responsible for putting the law into practice need additional time before it becomes operational.
The postponement concerns the law’s implementation timetable. The summary provided does not specify which preparations remain outstanding or detail any changes to the law’s provisions.
