Process Server in Egypt
INFORMAL SERVICE
Service by private Egypt process server is technically unauthorized. However, unless assets are to be attached after a judgment is obtained, informal service is a viable alternative to delays inherent in Hague service. Typical turnaround time for informal service in Egypt is 1-3 weeks.
FORMAL SERVICE
Service made pursuant to the Hague Service Convention is the formal method in Egypt. It allows for attachment of assets in Egypt when a judgment is obtained. Service takes 4-8 months and there is no available method for expediting the service.
PUBLICATION
Service by Publication is an alternative to personal service when a defendant's address is not known. Your court will require that you conduct a Due Diligence Search before issuing a court order allowing for service by publication. We handle the entire process, including the due diligence search affidavit, and preparing the Application and Order for Publication. We will provide all forms necessary for you to submit to your local court. Once the Order is signed by the judge, we will publish the entire file for one low rate of $995.00 and provide Proof of Publication.

LETTERS ROGATORY
Letters Rogatory is used for obtaining evidence or serving pleadings in countries which are not signers of the Hague Service Convention. They are a request from a court in the United States to a court in a foreign country requesting international judicial assistance related to service of process. This method is time consuming, cumbersome, and should be used only when other options are not available. The use of this method may result in habitual time delays of up to 1 year in the execution of requests. This method should only be used if no treaty is in force or if you are serving a Subpoena.
Advantage: In effect, creates a case in the country where the documents are served and makes judgment enforceable.
Disadvantage: Serious time delays and costs.
TRANSLATIONS
Most countries require the documents to be translated into the official language of the nation where they are to be served. The U.S. State Department recommends translation, but it is not a requirement unless the formal method is used. It is possible, although rare, that a demurer could be filed based upon lack of understanding by the defendant as to the nature and meaning of untranslated documents. We offer translation services at rates quoted below.
RATES
| Formal - Hague Service Convention | $995.00 |
| Informal | $1695.00 |
| Publication | $995.00 |
| *All fees are per defendant/address | |
| Translation | $0.38 per word (proper nouns not translated) |
