Hello, i have made an egyptian id in 2009, there is no expiration date on it, i think...聽 I cannot read arabic well. Please advice, how many years does it usually lasts and what to do to know if its about to expire?

Thanks for any serious info

it lasts 7 years from the date of issuance , so your ID will expire next year

yeah i guess you a one month after expiration date to renew it , and since you aren't Egyptian you can have the passport instead but if you wanna have driving licences or any official paper you should do it with the ID , otherwise you are good with the passport
