Technology's Role in Egyptian Courts
The criminal justice system in Egypt has begun implementing the new Criminal Procedure Law No. 174 of 2025, which aligns with the digital transformation and aims to modernize investigation and trial procedures. The law includes the extensive use of modern technological tools, such as conducting investigations and trials remotely through electronic courts connected via audio and video, and electronically documenting procedures by recording and securely storing them. Additionally, the law introduces electronic surveillance as an alternative to pretrial detention, allowing restrictions on defendants to be imposed and monitored electronically. It also organizes electronic notification of lawyers and facilitates the defense process. Moreover, the law has introduced an electronic judicial notification system that relies on phone and email communication, starting from October 1, 2026, to ensure the proof of notification receipt and electronic documentation, reflecting Egypt’s efforts to enhance transparency and efficiency in the justice system through technology.
