National ID Card Committees Begin Work for Egyptians Abroad

Committees tasked with issuing national identity cards to Egyptians living abroad have begun work as part of efforts to meet the needs of Egyptian communities overseas.

The initiative falls within the role of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation and Egyptian Expatriates in supporting citizens abroad and safeguarding their interests.

The work is being carried out in coordination with the Civil Status Sector at the Ministry of Interior, which handles national identity documentation.

The announcement did not specify which countries the committees would serve, their operating schedules or the procedures citizens would need to follow to obtain their cards.
