Egypt’s Physical Therapy Syndicate Seeks Local Fee Exemption for Centre Signs

Egypt’s General Syndicate of Physical Therapy has asked the Ministry of Local Development to exempt signs at physical therapy centres from fees charged by local authorities.

The syndicate, headed by Dr Sami Saad, addressed its request to Local Development Minister Dr Manal Awad.

It called for an urgent, official circular to be sent to governors and local administration units across all governorates, seeking nationwide implementation of the exemption.

The request concerns signage fees at physical therapy centres, rather than a broader exemption from local charges. The brief statement did not indicate whether the ministry had responded or whether a circular had been issued.
