Did you know that Yemenis can now obtain Egyptian citizenship by buying property? In this article, we will inform you about all the details of the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">naturalization of Yemenis in Egypt<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How to Obtain Egyptian Citizenship<\/b><b>?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Egypt, represented by the Council of Ministers, has sought to organize a law for cases in which Egyptian citizenship is granted in order to facilitate the process of naturalizing Yemenis in Egypt and others, whether Arabs or foreigners. The ways to obtain Egyptian citizenship are in 5, which are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>First: irrevocable deposit of 250 thousand US dollars\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He who wishes to obtain Egyptian citizenship shall make a transfer from abroad in the amount of 250 thousand US dollars to the Central Bank of Egypt as direct revenues in foreign currency to be placed in the state&#8217;s public treasury, provided that this amount is irrevocable.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Second: a deposit of $750,000 to be recovered after 5 years<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He who wishes to obtain Egyptian citizenship shall make a transfer from abroad in the amount of 750,000 US dollars to the Central Bank of Egypt. This amount shall not be recovered before the lapse of 5 years, the amount shall be refunded in Egyptian pounds at the exchange rate announced upon redemption, and the price shall not exceed the price upon deposit, i.e., without benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Third: a deposit amounting to one million US dollars to be recovered after 3 years<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He who wishes to obtain Egyptian citizenship shall make a transfer from abroad worth one million US dollars to the Central Bank of Egypt. This amount is not refunded before the lapse of 3 years, provided that the amount is refunded in Egyptian pounds at the exchange rate announced upon redemption, and it shall not exceed the price upon deposit, i.e., without benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Fourth: Participation in an investment project with a percentage of not less than 40%<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He who wishes to obtain Egyptian citizenship shall participate in an investment project, provided that the value of the amount to be participated in shall not be less than 400,000 US dollars to be transferred from abroad. The participation rate in the project shall not be less than 40% of the capital. You can see Investment Law No. 72 For the year 2017, for more information.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Fifth: Purchasing a property valued at no less than $500,000<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Council of Ministers has developed a new method for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">naturalization in Egypt for Yemenis 2021<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It has provided more opportunities for foreigners and Arabs in general to obtain Egyptian citizenship by purchasing state-owned property, provided that the property\u2019s value is not less than 500 thousand US dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Buying a Residential or Commercial Property to Obtain Citizenship<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We mentioned before that there is a way to obtain Egyptian citizenship by buying a state-owned property provided that its value is not less than 500 thousand US dollars. So, you can seize the opportunity and obtain Egyptian citizenship by buying a residential or commercial property in one of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aqarmap.com.eg\/en\/compounds\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the high-end compounds in egypt<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or huge commercial projects. These projects are available in many new cities, such as the New Administrative Capital, New Cairo, New Alamein, Mostakbal City, 6th of October City and others.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Investment by Buying and Renting a Property<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can invest in Egypt by buying a commercial or administrative property in one of the commercial malls or administrative buildings and offering it for rent. So, the project owners, as well as companies, can compete for renting the unit. This gives you a great benefit due to the high rental prices of commercial and administrative units, as the return of administrative properties is higher than residential by 10 to 15% of the value of the unit price annually.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Investing in Properties is the Guarantee for You<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the person who wants to obtain Egyptian citizenship is usually not very familiar with the Egyptian market, the idea of \u200b\u200b\u200b\u200bpurchasing a property worth at least $ 500,000, whether it is a residential, commercial or administrative property and offering it for rent, is a safer idea for him. The prices of properties are constantly on the rise and the person who wants to obtain Egyptian citizenship will enjoy a successful and profitable investment project that returns a large financial income when offered for rent.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conditions for Yemenis to Obtain Egyptian Citizenship<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several conditions that a Yemeni person shall meet to obtain Egyptian citizenship. These conditions are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The person wishing to obtain Egyptian citizenship shall not be less than 21 years old, and shall not suffer from a physical or mental disability.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He shall have resided in Egypt for a period of no less than 10 years.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He shall have resided in Egypt, not for the purpose of study or tourism.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He shall have a source of livelihood and legal income.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He shall not have been previously accused of a criminal charge or a case of dishonourable conduct and shall be a person of good repute.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He shall be able to deal in the Arabic language proficiently.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Documents Required from Yemenis to Obtain Egyptian Citizenship<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several documents that shall be brought to apply for Egyptian citizenship.
