The Egyptian Ministry of Housing and Public Utilities, represented by the New Urban Communities Authority, will conclude the process of receiving investment land booking applications through the Investor Services Portal on Thursday, October 15, 2026. The applications are for lands in approximately 25 new cities, with various commercial, administrative, and service activities. The land plots have areas of less than or more than 5 feddans and are allocated on a spot basis.
The Ministry of Housing and Public Utilities announced the steps to book investment lands, which include visiting the official website of the Investor Services Portal, registering as a new investor, and activating the email. The applicant must then enter official data, attach a commercial registry that matches the required land activity, and review available land plots and activities in new cities during the offering period.
To proceed with the booking, applicants must submit their applications, choose a land plot, and attach technical and financial documents, as well as a sealed financial offer. They must also pay for studying the application and obtain a land booking code. The required documents include a recent and valid company profile reflecting the nature of the required activity, a clear copy of the company's tax card, and a summary of the company's articles of association.
Additional required documents comprise financial statements approved by a certified accountant for the past three years and a technical feasibility study for the project, including an expected timeline for implementation. These requirements aim to ensure that applicants are qualified and capable of executing their proposed projects on the investment lands.
The Egyptian government has been working to attract investments and develop new cities, providing opportunities for investors to participate in various sectors. By setting clear guidelines and requirements for investment land bookings, the Ministry of Housing aims to streamline the process and encourage sustainable development in these new urban areas.
Investors interested in booking lands for their projects must adhere to the specified deadline and provide accurate information along with the necessary documents. The Ministry's efforts to organize and regulate the allocation of investment lands reflect its commitment to creating a favorable business environment and promoting economic growth.
The New Urban Communities Authority has been actively involved in managing and developing Egypt's new cities, focusing on providing integrated services and infrastructure to support investment and urban development.
