The Egypt Financial Regulatory Authority has extended the deadline for certain non-bank financial companies to submit carbon footprint reports to 31 December 2026, from 30 June 2026. The extension applies to firms whose issued capital or shareholders’ equity exceeds EGP 100 million and follows the authority’s dialogue with affected sectors. The change was made through Decision No. 115 of 2026, which amends the timetable set by Decision No. 36 of 2026 on mandatory disclosure of carbon emissions through carbon footprint reports. Firms covered by the requirement must prepare reports covering Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, and the reported data must be verified by a validation body registered with the authority.
