Frequently Asked Questions
Is it mandatory for both spouses to be physically present in Egypt during the kafala process?
Both spouses must be present in Egypt during the kafala process.
Can I change my kafala child's name?
The kafala family has the right to change the child's first name. The family also has the right to change either the child's second name or last name. This modification typically involves incorporating the kafala father's first name OR the family name while keeping the rest of the child's name distinct from the kafala father's name. For instance, if the child's original name is Ahmed Ali Hussein and the kafala father's name is Yahya Abd Al-Ghani Al-Khouli, the family may choose to change the child's first name (Ahmed) to (Mazen) and replace either the second name (Ali) with the kafala father's first name (Yahya), while retaining the rest of the child's name. Alternatively, they can also change the kafala child's family name, replacing it with the father's family name. Consequently, the child's name may become "Mazen Yahya Hussein" or "Mazen Ali Al-Khouli".
Who can become a kafala parent?
A married couple who possess the moral, social maturity, health and material capacity to care for a child. Married not less than 3 years (exception in case of infertility is possible).
