The Methodology

How an Engagement Runs

01
Strategic Consultation

We map your trigger — a tender, a distributor, an expansion mandate — against Egyptian law, and agree scope before anything is filed.

02
Structure & Documentation

Entity, licensing and compliance path documented in writing, with fees and methodology stated up front.

03
Execution via Data Room

Every step runs through a shared data room: written instructions, templates, and proof of each filing as it completes.

04
Handover & Coverage

Your team receives the complete file; ongoing obligations move onto a managed compliance calendar.

Strategy is set personally; execution runs through the system. Karim personally sets the strategy on every engagement Consortio accepts — the entity structure before a formation is filed, the due-diligence scope on a retainer, the compliance framework for your activity. Execution then runs through a trained team on a documented playbook, evidenced step by step in your data room.

Commercial disputes are the exception: those he takes first chair on himself. With more than 13 years advising international companies on Egyptian market entry, corporate structuring and commercial defense, his work has been featured in Business Insider and CDR.

Common Questions

It depends on what you will actually do in Egypt: invoicing locally, executing a contract, bidding on tenders, or only studying the market. Each vehicle carries different tax, licensing and liability consequences, so we map the structure to your operating model before anything is filed.
The incorporation itself is fast once documents are in order; the realistic timeline to a fully operating entity includes GAFI incorporation, tax registration, the separate social-insurance file, and bank account opening. We publish the full sequence and manage every step through a shared data room.
Labor registrations, corporate tax and VAT filings, social insurance, trademark protection and personal-data (PDPL) compliance. Our compliance operating system tracks each obligation in its own folder with deadlines, templates and uploaded proof of fulfilment.
Yes. Commercial disputes between companies are heard by Egypt’s Economic Courts, and enforcement is a defined stage of our litigation process, not an afterthought. Disputes are handled personally by our Managing Partner, and only high-stakes cases are accepted.
Every engagement starts with a fixed written scope and fee, agreed before any work begins — no hourly surprises. Our methodology and the legal bases we rely on are published openly; commercial terms are tailored to your matter.
