Egypt Import Compliance
DDP Shipping Compliance Checklist for Egypt
Failure to comply with Egyptian customs rules results in immediate cargo return or heavy fines. We guarantee strict adherence to all local regulations.
ACI / ACID Number
Advance Cargo Information is mandatory. You must have an ACID number printed on the Bill of Lading, Invoice, and Packing List before the vessel leaves China.
CargoX Submission
Physical documents are no longer accepted. The Chinese exporter must upload original commercial documents to Egyptian customs via the CargoX blockchain network.
GOEIC Registration
Factories producing textiles, household appliances, and certain consumer goods must be pre-registered with Egypt's General Organization for Export and Import Control.
Arabic Labeling
Egyptian customs heavily inspects labeling. Products must clearly state "Made in China" and include relevant product details in Arabic on the packaging.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers tailored to Egypt importers and DDP compliance
What is the ACID number and NAFEZA system in Egypt?
Egypt strictly requires an Advance Cargo Information Declaration (ACID) via the NAFEZA platform. The ACID number must be obtained by the importer and displayed on all shipping documents before the cargo leaves China.
Does DDP pricing include Egyptian customs duties and 14% VAT?
Yes. Our DDP quote covers freight, insurance, the Egyptian import duties, and the mandatory 14% Value Added Tax (VAT). You receive an all-inclusive price with no surprise fees at delivery.
How are documents submitted to Egyptian customs?
All commercial documents (Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin) must be uploaded electronically using the CargoX blockchain platform by the exporter in China.
Can you deliver directly to Amazon FBA in Egypt (Amazon.eg)?
Yes. We support FBA prep, carton labels, and delivery appointments. We ship to Amazon.eg fulfillment centers, primarily located in Cairo and the 10th of Ramadan City.
