Television and news site ownership laws
Law No. 180 of 2018 relates to the regulation of media outlets. It specifies the rules for ownership and establishment of audio-visual media and online websites in Egypt. It is required that media owners be Egyptian nationals, not convicted of crimes involving dishonesty or breach of trust. Media companies must be structured as one-person companies or with multiple partners, with restrictions on the percentage of non-Egyptian shares. The maximum number of television channels that can be owned is seven, with a minimum capital requirement depending on the type of media, and half of this amount must be deposited into banks before broadcasting begins. Each media outlet must appoint a director responsible for content, who must be Egyptian. Additionally, the responsible media professional bears legal responsibility for any errors or violations of professional standards. The law aims to organize the administrative and technical process to ensure compliance with professional, ethical, and legal standards.
