Under Article 11 of the Egyptian Companies Law (Law No. 159 of 1981), all contracts, invoices, trade names, addresses, notices, and printed materials issued by your company must clearly display the company's registered address, along with its company type (e.g., 'Limited Liability Company' or 'Joint Stock Company') either before or after the company name, in clear, legible lettering.
This applies to a wide range of materials including letterheads, email footers, official correspondence, and business signage. The goal is transparency — ensuring that anyone dealing with your company can immediately identify its legal structure and therefore understand the liability framework they are dealing with.
As an expat business owner, non-compliance with this requirement can expose you to administrative penalties and may complicate legal disputes or contract enforcement. It is good practice to have your company's Arabic and English documentation reviewed by a local lawyer to ensure the correct legal designations are used consistently. Note also that company documents in Egypt are typically required to include Arabic text, so bilingual formatting is common for businesses serving both local and international clients.
This is general legal information, not legal advice. For advice on your specific situation, consult a lawyer licensed in Egypt.
