Establishment begins when the founders (or their representatives) notify the competent administrative authority of the company's creation, attaching: the preliminary contract and the company's statute (or the articles for an LLC); the Cabinet's approval if the purpose is among the listed special activities; a certificate from a licensed bank confirming full subscription and payment of the due amount; and a receipt for a fee of one per thousand of capital, with a minimum of EGP 100 and a maximum of EGP 1,000 (art. 17).
The competent authority must give the applicant a certificate once the documents are complete, and the company is then registered in the Commercial Register on the basis of that certificate (art. 17). The company is published and acquires legal personality fifteen days after its registration in the Commercial Register, unless the authority decides it acquires personality earlier (art. 17).
The preliminary contract and statute must be official or have authenticated signatures and contain the data specified by the executive regulations (art. 15). Within ten days of notification the authority may object to the company's formation for defined reasons, provided the objection is reasoned (art. 18).
