Sector's Role in National Economy

The Trade Remedies Sector constitutes one of the core pillars for the protection and support of the national economy, playing a central role in addressing the adverse effects of unfair trade practices and in supporting domestic manufacturers and producers. Through the effective application of trade remedy instruments, the Sector contributes to the rationalization of import costs, the reduction of the trade balance deficit, and the alleviation of pressures on foreign exchange resources, while also enhancing the competitiveness of Egyptian exports and facilitating their access to new markets.

All such actions are undertaken in full compliance with Egypt's international obligations, and through the lawful mechanisms provided under the relevant WTO Agreements. In this context, the Sector actively contributes to the implementation of the State's policy objectives aimed at localization and deepening of domestic industry, increasing reliance on the local content, and strengthening the position of Egyptian products in domestic and international markets, in line with the national branding initiative "Proudly Made in Egypt."
