Egypt issues warning over scams involving expat car import initiative

The Ministry explained that some scammers are claiming to accelerate obtaining approvals, transfer of deposit, the pace of procedures...etc.

The Japanese External Trade Organization (JETRO) will organize a visit by a Japanese businessmen delegation to Cairo to boost trade and investment.

The decree will be applied to cars that are imported as of October of the model year through September of the following year.

In April, sales of passenger cars recorded a 26 percent decline, affected by the precautionary measures imposed by the government due to COVID-19.

This comes despite auto market sales in Q2 of 2020 reportedly being declining 3.8% y-o-y, and 35.3% quarter-on-quarter, amounting to 37,400 units.
