Active extraterritoriality is provided for all SEC related offences under the Egyptian Penal Code, committed by Egyptian nationals abroad if they return to Egypt and provided that the double criminality requirement is fulfilled, under Article 3 of the Penal Code. Passive extraterritoriality is provided for some SEC related offences, such as trafficking offences under article 16(2) of the Law No. 64 of 2010 Combating Human Trafficking and for CSAM related offences under article 3(2) of the Cybercrime Law. Double criminality is required in both instances.
As no general extradition law was found, SEC-related offences will be extraditable on the basis of requirements provided in bilateral extradition treaties ratified by Egypt. It is unclear whether double criminality applies for extradition.
