US Expat Tax in Egypt
American nationals living and working in Egypt are still liable to pay U.S. expat tax even if they do not currently live in the U.S. American citizens residing abroad are given an automatic extension for filing, up to June 15th following the calendar year end. Taxes that are due by April 15th should be paid to avoid interest and penalties. Individual income tax rates in Egypt are progressive, up to 20% depending on the gross income. It is recommended to seek the help of professional tax service companies to make the filing of income tax returns in the U.S. an uncomplicated one. Expats who are filing taxes in the country are advised to be cautious, as feelings towards foreigners are mixed due to the country’s political climate. Expats are advised to receive assistance when filing taxes in the country.
