FM releases announcement on conscription settlement initiative for expats

Foreign Ministry released Thursday an announcement regarding an initiative to finally settle conscription positions for nationals abroad.

In a statement Thursday, the ministry said that it received along with the State Ministry of Emigration and Egyptian Expatriates’ Affairs several requests from Egyptians living abroad about the possibility of settling their military recruitment positions, given some of them can not return home or leave once again, as they are not allowed to travel for being required for military service or not having terminated their conscription status.

The move is showing the utmost keenness of the Egyptian State on offering all forms of facilitations to Egyptian expats including work opportunities, study chances and medical care, the ministry added in the note.

Registrations will start on the ministry’s website as of August 14 for 30 days in order to file applications for settling conscription status, it added.
