Egypt discusses new amendments to Nationality Law to attract US dollars

The parliament’s report reviewed the philosophy and objectives of the amendments.

It discussed granting minors to a foreign mother: whether the Egyptian nationality can be acquired to those born in Egypt but who belong to another country whose language is Arabic or whose religion is also majority Islam. 

The report stated that this amendment achieves the principle of equality between men and women alike, in granting Egyptian nationality to children, provided that the law determines the conditions for acquiring the nationality.
