EgyptTenders
Commercial aggregator of Egyptian government tenders with email alerts
⚠ Reputation warning
Resells freely-available public data — verify alert latency and coverage against the official etenders.gov.eg before paying.
Market position
A live, Egypt-focused commercial tender aggregator indexing data from the official portal into a searchable database with email alerts and contract-award tracking — a lower-friction, alert-driven layer over the government site.
Egypt-specific note
Useful if you want Egyptian government tenders pushed to you via alerts rather than checking the portal manually — but since it resells the free official data, weigh the subscription against going direct.

- + Searchable DB + award history
- + Lower friction than the raw government portal

Why this matters for Egypt trades
The ETA runs tax (14% VAT, 22.5% corporate tax) and the mandatory e-invoicing/e-receipt clearance system (JSON/XML, UUID, digital signature — only cleared invoices are deductible, and non-compliance bars government work); EFCBC ("Tasheed") membership and classification (Law 104/1992) is required to take work above EGP 50,000 or bid public tenders; engineers must register with the Egyptian Engineers Syndicate; companies incorporate via GAFI (Commercial Register + Tax Card); employers must enrol every worker in social insurance (NOSI, Law 148/2019); and building in the new cities is permitted through NUCA.
Egyptian construction & trades software selection is shaped above all by the ETA (Egyptian Tax Authority) e-invoicing mandate — live and enforced (full B2B mandate from April 2023; paper invoices invalid for deduction since ~July 2023), a real-time clearance model where only cleared e-invoices allow VAT/cost deduction, and now reaching small businesses (the VAT-registration threshold was halved to EGP 250,000, with small firms required to register by 31 March 2026). Add a volatile, un-pegged Egyptian pound (which favours local EGP-priced vendors over USD-billed foreign SaaS), 14% VAT, mandatory EFCBC contractor classification, Engineers-Syndicate registration, and a megaproject pipeline led by the New Administrative Capital. B2B runs in Arabic and English.
