Egyptian rules that may apply
- EDA import approval for medical devices: Medical devices and consumables need an import permit from the Egyptian Drug Authority (EDA), applied for on its medevice platform. The permit is valid for one year, and goods should not be shipped before it is issued.
- Egyptian standards (EOS): The Egyptian Organization for Standardization and Quality (EOS) issues Egyptian standards. Imported goods are generally checked against the applicable standard and inspected at the border by GOEIC, so tell the factory which standard applies and check that its test reports cover it.
