These Codes primarily discuss private law and public law, which also encompasses administrative legal issues pertaining to the duties and judicial relationships of state organizations, whether such relationships be with one another or with private individuals.

Understanding the Egyptian Civil Code
Under the Egyptian Civil Code No. 131 of 1948 (the “Civil Code”), a contract’s legal effects bind only its signatories. Hence, the stipulated rights and duties within the contract enforce solely upon them. Consequently, unless mutually agreed upon, such legal effects, whether rights or obligations, shouldn’t extend to third parties. This principle stands firm irrespective of whether obligations arise from formal or informal agreements. Many judgments uphold this foundational principle. Therefore, any party that breaches a contract bears the liability for it. Regardless of the contract type, our team stands ready to support you in upholding the pertinent obligations.
