The Central Bank of Egypt has issued rules for licensing and registering payment system operators and payment service providers, aiming to enhance the safety and efficiency of payment systems. These rules apply to entities operating within and outside Egypt that provide payment services, including banks and other payment institutions. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for those providing payment services or operating payment systems in Egypt, whether they are local or international entities serving residents. It is crucial for stakeholders to understand and adhere to these new guidelines to ensure regulatory compliance and maintain the integrity of Egypt's payment ecosystem.
