03Facts
Data entry from Egypt: what to know
- Work already run from Egypt
- Egyptian teams manage complex data processing, financial and accounting operations, HR and fleet management, ITIDA said on 26 August 2026.
- Published offshore prices
- Flatworld Solutions, an offshore firm with offices in India, the Philippines and the US, lists basic data entry from $6 an hour and full-time data entry staff from $960 a month, as indicative prices.
- Confidentiality
- Employees in Egypt must keep work information confidential (Article 134 of Labour Law 14 of 2025). Disclosing trade secrets that cause substantial harm is listed as serious misconduct for which an employee can be dismissed (Article 148).
- Personal data from the EU
- Egypt has no EU adequacy decision, so transfers of personal data from the EU need a safeguard such as the standard contractual clauses the European Commission issued on 4 June 2021.
- Saudi Arabia
- Since 5 April 2026, 69 professions in secretarial, clerical, translation, data entry and administrative support work are 100% Saudi at establishments in the Kingdom employing one worker or more. The decision does not address work done by a provider abroad.
- Graduates
- 743,100 higher-education graduates in 2024, 234,100 of them in business, administration and law (CAPMAS).

06FAQ
Data entry outsourcing in Egypt: what founders ask first.
It depends on the language, the volume and how much checking the work needs. 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.
Yes. The team keys and checks data in English and Arabic, and in French, German or Spanish where you need it.
Each field has a written rule. A share of every batch is checked again by a second person, errors are logged by type, and the error rate is reviewed with you every month.
Part of it. Where documents follow a pattern, such as invoices from regular suppliers, AI reads them first and the team checks what it is unsure of. Handwriting, unusual layouts and judgement calls stay with people.
The team works only in the systems you open to it, under logins you control and can remove. Egyptian law obliges employees to keep work information confidential (Article 134 of Labour Law 14 of 2025). For personal data from the EU, the contract sets the safeguards, such as the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.
Check each role first. Since 5 April 2026, Saudi Arabia reserves 69 professions, data entry among their fields, for Saudi nationals at establishments in the Kingdom employing one worker or more. The decision does not address work done by a provider abroad, so each role is checked before it moves.
No. GrowAxis employs the team in Egypt under its Labour Law 14 of 2025, so you need no entity, bank account or payroll there.
