Services including outsourcing, digital marketing, professional consulting, website design, cybersecurity, the organization of outbound tourism trips, services provided to global companies, and contract manufacturing for third parties under fixed-term binding agreements will be among the list of services eligible for the zero VAT rate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The details:<\/strong> If the service provider is foreign and the service recipient is in Egypt, the service will be subject to the VAT rates set by law \u2014 10% for consulting services and 14% for other services, excluding internet services (which are taxed at 8%). A reverse charge will be applied if the foreign service provider does not register under the simplified system with the Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) in the foreign suppliers registry to benefit from the exemption \u2014 either the foreign provider pays the tax in their own country, or a reverse charge is applied, and the local recipient of the service is liable to pay the charge, our sources explained. This applies to services such as franchising for global brands operating in Egypt, they added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Companies exporting their services abroad <\/strong>\u2014 particularly tech services \u2014 and enjoying zero VAT treatment, will be eligible for export subsidies, our sources said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>As for pilgrimage services<\/strong>, the organization of pilgrimage and Umrah trips will be totally exempted, given that they already enjoy multiple exemptions. As such, they are considered partly local and partly exported services, and will therefore fall under the exemption category, the sources
