Armed Forces allocate system for recruiting expatriates

CAIRO - 7 September 2017: The Armed Forces is allocating a one-outlet system finalizing recruitment procedures for Egyptian citizens abroad.

The Armed Forces Commander-In-Chief, who also serves as Minister of Defense and Military Production, General Sedki Sobhy, approved the provision of conscription services to Egyptians abroad through a one-outlet system within the recruitment and mobilization department for heightened communication with Egyptians abroad.
The initiative arose in response to the request of the Ministry of Immigration and Egyptian Expatriate Affairs.

Minister of State for Migration and Egyptians Expatriate Affairs, Nabila Makram, participated in opening the office dedicated to citizens living abroad in the presence of the Armed Forces’ Head of Recruitment and Mobilization.

The process of allocating a single window contributes to the provision of a number of services, such as obtaining travel permits within 15 minutes for Egyptians abroad who have arrived in the country so long as their recruitment status is correct.
