The Egyptian Supplier Verification Checklist
27 checks before you wire money. Ghost exporters, brokers posing as packhouses, edited certificate PDFs, this checklist walks you through the exact verification a professional runs on a new Egyptian supplier, with the method for each check. Compiled by FoodGate Audit's ISO 17020-accredited inspection team.
A preview, checks 1 to 5 of 27:
- 1. Request a recent extract of the Egyptian commercial register (sigill tigari).
- 2. Verify registration in the Exporters' Register at GOEIC.
- 3. Ask for the tax card and cross-check the tax registration number.
- 4. Cross-check GLOBALG.A.P. claims on the official database.
- 5. Verify every other certificate directly with the issuing body.
The full PDF covers legal & registration, facility reality, documentation & compliance, and the commercial red flags that give fraudsters away.
