Egypt to keep customs exchange rate at EGP 16 to dollar in Dec.
Amwal Al Ghad Published in Amwal Al Ghad on 01 - 12 - 2018

Egypt will keep its customs exchange rate steady at 16 Egyptian pounds to dollar for December, Finance Minister Mohamed Maait said in a statement on Friday
Egypt began setting a monthly fixed customs exchange rate in January 2017, following the central bank's decision to float the Egyptian pound in November 2016.
The finance ministry has since reviewed the rate every month.
The minister said that luxury goods, including some types of fish, wines and pet food, products exempted from customs taxes, imports that have local alternatives, and a range of other selected imports will be subjected to the exchange rate announced by the central bank.
The commercial rate has remained steady over recent months, with the Egyptian pound trading at around 17.8 to the dollar on Thursday.
