SW. tourists I hasten to inform you, because those who often travel to Egypt have quite a few relatives here (with whom they constantly keep in touch), friends, acquaintances, and many of you also have a local SIM card here.

Current 10 digit numbers, which all start 01, will take an extra 1. They will now begin 011
Current 11 digit numbers, which all start 0152, will change the 5 to a 1. They will now begin 0112

Current 10 digit numbers, which start 01, will add a 2. They will now begin 012

Mobile operators will have four months to fully comply with the decision, during which time users will be able to call using either the old number or the amended one.

And here's some more positivity :)
According to the Egyptian leadership, not only is Egypt not going to introduce a visa regime or a dress code for foreign women, but it is also going to simplify the procedure for tourists entering the country of pyramids as much as possible. This, today at a meeting in his department, said the Egyptian Minister of Tourism Munir Fakhri Abdel Nour.
According to him, the procedure for entering Egypt should be similar to entering Turkey, i.e. tourists will not need to purchase an entry stamp. The stamp on arrival in the country is planned to be made completely free. According to Mr. Minister: "...It will give a positive impetus to tourists...". Also, at the meeting, the issue of the possibility of simplifying the visa regime for owners of real estate in the country was discussed.
It is planned to remove the restriction on residents staying more than 30 days in the country and allow residents of resort cities such as Hurghada and Sharm el Sheikh to fly to their homeland by charter airlines.

the restriction on the flight to the homeland of residents working in tourism has long been removed. Even after the revolution. And for those who do not work, while the issue is being discussed and not accepted.

The changes have already taken effect, but the Vodafone company told me that within 2 months they will be able to call me and I will be able to call the old numbers without any problems. But I changed everything yesterday :)
