We’ve compiled our most essential strategic advice into one structured video series—covering everything from market entry and residency to complex litigation and asset recovery.
Accessing reliable, practical legal information about the Egyptian market has always been a challenge for international investors. The regulations are complex, the bureaucracy is intimidating, and the difference between “legal theory” and “on-the-ground reality” is vast.
At Consortio Law Firm, we believe that an educated client is a stronger client.
Following the launch of our Legal Lifecycle System (recently featured in Business Insider), we recognized the need to make the core principles of that system accessible to every investor considering Egypt.
Today, we are proud to introduce The Foreign Investor’s Toolkit: a curated 10-part video series designed to act as your digital blueprint for navigating the Egyptian business landscape. We have moved beyond generic legal overviews to provide specific, actionable insights on the issues that keep Country Managers and General Counsel up at night.
Here is the complete breakdown of the Toolkit, organized by the stage of your business journey.
Phase 1: The Foundation (Entry & Setup)
You cannot build a skyscraper on weak foundations. These resources ensure your initial structure, status, and permits are engineered for long-term stability, not just quick registration.
1. Starting a Business in Egypt? Strategy Before Structure.
Entering the market is not just about filing papers; it is about engineering a strategy. We explain why we don’t just ask “which form you prefer,” but instead analyze your business model to design an entry route—whether LLC, Branch, or Trade Agent—that ensures the fastest setup and lowest long-term risk.

2. Buying a Company in Egypt? Don’t Skip This Step.
If you are acquiring an existing entity, standard due diligence is not enough. We break down our coordinated approach to Cross-Border Acquisitions, where we integrate legal and financial reviews to uncover hidden risks before you close the deal. Watch Video: Due Diligence & Acquisitions
3. The Fastest Way to Get Investor Residency in Egypt.
Securing your legal presence is as critical as securing your company. We clarify the requirements for Company-Based Residency and review the full compliance position—fees, penalties, and renewal deadlines—to ensure your stay is predictable and legal. Watch Video: Investor Residency
4. Can Foreigners Own Real Estate in Egypt? The Rules Explained.
Foreign ownership is permitted but strictly regulated. Whether you are buying from a developer or a private individual, we explain the essential due diligence required on land titles and building permits to ensure your ownership is valid and secure. Watch Video: Real Estate Ownership Rules
5. Why Your Business License is Taking So Long (And How to Fix It).
Licensing should not be a reactive panic. We introduce our Digital Data Room approach, where we provide a structured compliance checklist, document templates, and tracking systems to manage your license approvals and renewals without delays. Watch Video: Licensing & The Data Room
Phase 2: The Operations (Daily Protection)
Once you are operational, the goal shifts to risk mitigation. These videos cover the daily defensive measures required to operate without business interruption.
6. The Compliance Shield: Operating in Egypt with Zero Surprises.
Most problems happen after you start operating. We explain our Compliance Ecosystem, where we map every tax, labor, and governance rule applicable to your sector and conduct quarterly audits to ensure you are always ready for government inspection. Watch Video: The Compliance Shield
7. Why Most Foreign Contracts Fail in Egyptian Courts.
A contract only protects you if it survives a judge’s scrutiny. We reveal our Lifecycle Drafting method, creating agreements based on the most recent Egyptian court precedents to ensure your penalties and remedies are actually enforceable if a dispute arises. Watch Video: Contracts That Stand Strong
8. Why Registering Your Trademark in Egypt Isn’t Enough.
Trademark protection is a legal strategy, not just a filing exercise. We explain how we manage the full trademark lifecycle—from assessing conflicting marks to fighting infringement and non-use claims—using a dedicated digital platform to give you real-time control. Watch Video: Trademark Protection Strategy
Phase 3: The Defense (Dispute Resolution)
When commercial relationships break down, you need aggression backed by technical mastery. These videos outline our approach to winning high-stakes disputes.
9. Litigation in Egypt: How We Build a Winning Case.
We don’t start with filing; we start with strategy. Learn how we identify the best procedural path (Civil vs. Economic Courts), formalize evidence before trial, and test every claim for “Procedural Validity” to resolve disputes before they even reach the merits. Watch Video: Litigation Strategy
10. Won the Lawsuit but Can’t Collect? The Enforcement Strategy.
A judgment is not the finish line. We explain our Enforcement Landscape analysis, where we trace assets—properties, bank accounts, and third-party debts—to select the execution route that turns your court ruling into real, recoverable value. Watch Video: Enforcement & Asset Tracing
