قانون الجنسية بين التجنس الاستثماري و الإقامة بوديعة

Abstract EN

The Egyptian nationality is regulated by the existing Law No.

26 of 1975.

It included- like other laws- the naturalization as a means to increase the state's population in terms of quantity and quality.

Often, the doctrines regarding the terms and conditions of naturalization vary between leniency and strictness, and the greatest thing that revolves around the difference in countries is the length of residence.

While some legislation defines it as thirty years, others define it as three years only.

Between this and that, the doctrines of the laws rotate, so that their ideal period ranges between five and ten years.

However, the Egyptian legislator-and out of all these periods-recently added a new form of naturalization represented in what we called investment naturalization in accordance with the provisions of Law 140 of 2019, amending the Nationality Law.

National status can be acquired directly without requiring the slightest amount of residency in the country in four cases: buying real estate, depositing a deposit, making a financial donation, establishing or participating in an investment project.

The new amendment is- of course- a subject for controversy and discussion, as detailed in this article.
