Unfortunately, the centre's services are only available to Egyptians.

While you are still in Germany, these men and women will support you in preparing for your return. They will also establish contact between you and the EGC counselling team. Together we will give you information and tips for a successful reintegration. This way you can make the best decisions for your situation. You are in control of your future path. Thorough preparation also increases your chances of a successful and smooth return to Egypt.
