It repeals Labour Law 12 of 2003 and Law 125 of 2010. It applies to foreign workers in Egypt except where a special text says otherwise.
It takes effect on the first day of the month after 90 days from publication. Specialized labour courts start on the first of October after the law takes effect. Commentary often dates those as 1 September 2025 and 1 October 2025. For a filing, the gazette text and the ministry page control.
Figures this chapter leaves out on purpose
Notice periods, annual-leave days, months of severance, and any new foreign-worker ratio are not copied into this chapter from commentary or from memory of the old law. The 2003 law is repealed by the text above, so its day counts are not today’s day counts.
Foreign work permits are still filed through the Ministry of Labour service and the GAFI page. See the residence guide.
