06FAQ
Back office outsourcing in Egypt: what founders ask first.
Handing the work behind your sales and service, such as orders, documents, data entry, finance support and reports, to an outside team that runs it in your systems.
Most work done on a screen: orders, document checks, data entry, invoice processing, reconciliations, reports and admin. Egyptian teams already manage finance and accounting, HR and complex data processing, ITIDA said in August 2026.
It is costed per role. For reference, at GrowAxis’s 2026 rates a support specialist with fluent English costs about $1,520 a month and a junior data analyst about $1,500, all in: pay, social insurance, equipment and management. We cost your roles on the call.
No. A GrowAxis team starts at one person and grows into a small pod as the volume does.
The team works only in the systems and folders you open to it, under logins you control. Egyptian law obliges employees to keep work information confidential (Article 134 of Labour Law 14 of 2025), and disclosing trade secrets that cause substantial harm is listed as serious misconduct for which an employee can be dismissed (Article 148).
No. GrowAxis employs the team in Egypt under its Labour Law 14 of 2025, so you need no entity, bank account or payroll there.
Each role is checked first. Saudi rules reserve remote customer service jobs at companies in the Kingdom, outsourced ones included, for Saudi nationals, and since 5 April 2026 they reserve 69 administrative support professions at private employers there. The second decision does not address work done by a provider abroad. Our page on back office and IT for Saudi companies covers what runs from Cairo.
