ℹ️ About the bank

The National Bank of Egypt is Egypt's oldest and largest bank. It opened a Shanghai representative office in 1999, upgraded to a full branch in 2008 — the first Arab bank branch in mainland China. In 2017 the branch was approved to handle CNY (yuan) banking business. It focuses on trade finance and corporate banking, supporting Egypt–China economic ties.

🌍 Flexibility for foreigners

Mainly useful for Egyptian/Arab businesses and traders: a licensed Shanghai branch offering trade finance, corporate remittances and CNY services. Service is aimed at companies, not personal individual accounts.

🧰 Key services

  • Corporate banking and trade finance
  • CNY (yuan) banking services (since 2017)
