Title Deed Verification in Egypt – Legal Assurance for Foreign Buyers
“Ensuring Clear and Secure Property Ownership in Egypt”
Ensure Your Property Is Legally Yours – Title Deed Verification in Egypt:-
Before purchasing or inheriting property in Egypt, verifying the title deed (سند الملكية) is the most critical legal step. Many foreign buyers fall into traps due to fake ownership claims, unregistered properties, or incomplete contracts. At Anglo-Nile Law Firm, we provide bilingual legal support to help you verify the authenticity, legality, and registration status of any property title in Egypt.
Whether you are buying a home, inheriting a property, or involved in a dispute, our office offers reliable and professional title verification services backed by Egyptian civil law and real estate regulations. We act as your trusted legal eyes on the ground — ensuring your rights are protected.
What Is a Title Deed in Egypt?
A title deed (سند الملكية) is the official document proving legal ownership of real estate in Egypt. However, unlike in some European countries, Egypt has multiple property systems, and not all properties are fully registered at the Real Estate Registry (الشهر العقاري).
There are different forms of ownership documents, such as:
Final registered deed (عقد مسجل نهائي) – strongest legal proof
Preliminary contract (عقد ابتدائي) – common, but not enforceable unless registered
Court rulings confirming ownership (حكم تثبيت ملكية)
Power of Attorney transfers (توكيـل بيع) – valid only in limited circumstances
We analyze the document chain to ensure legal ownership and identify risks.
Why Title Deed Verification Is Critical?
Risks of skipping verification include:
Buying from someone who does not legally own the property
Purchasing property with existing legal disputes or debts
Registering under a void or incomplete contract
Future challenges in court or during resale
Inability to enforce ownership or recover funds
📌 Note: Egyptian courts only recognize ownership based on registered documents or valid court judgments.
