The Central Bank of Egypt and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation and Egyptians Abroad have launched an initiative allowing Egyptians living abroad to update their customer data with the National Bank of Egypt and Banque Misr without traveling to Egypt. The initiative is coordinated with the Egyptian Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Combating Unit and supported by the Federation of Egyptian Banks. Customers can complete and sign a data update form at their nearest Egyptian diplomatic mission or consulate. After verifying the signature, the mission will send the form through the ministry for authentication and delivery to the relevant bank. The process is intended to simplify data updates while maintaining regulatory and customer due diligence requirements.
