What products can be taken out of Egypt, and how much?
Are there any restrictions on the export of products, things? And the details?.. For example, you need to take a certificate for a figurine, so that they would be allowed to transport it across the border. (An example is figurative, not necessarily a figurine)
Thanks!

Pack everything you want in your luggage. And read the weight of the luggage carefully on the website of the air carrier.

Corals and shells are prohibited for export. The fine is decent. And everything else you take as much as you want (there are still restrictions on the import of alcohol into Ukraine, read how much you can import). Fruits can be taken (for example, strawberries) in hand luggage. How much I do not bring fruits from Egypt, there have never been any restrictions for export)))

For the price of a figurine, relatively speaking, you can understand whether it is a rarity. It is forbidden to export corals and products from them without a certificate. Products can be exported almost without restrictions.

We had a nasty episode when we bought 5 burnt clay tablets with hieroglyphs and drawings at the Old Market in Sharm (there were a lot of them, new, but well made antique), when passing the last control (I don’t know what it’s called there ). My wife and son were let through, my passport was taken away from me and they took me across the airport with signs to an expert on antiquities. Everything ended well, they gave everything away and flew out of the country normally, but an unpleasant aftertaste remained. A foreign country, ignorance of the language, the possibility of corruption, little time before departure tickled my nerves decently.
Therefore, the export of any items that can be attributed to antiques is prohibited and it is better not to run into trouble. As an example, there are shops in Naama where they sell coins. If you are not a connoisseur, you can take it for some kind of antique, but rather fakes for tourists. I think that if they slow down at customs with them, then there will be more problems, because. it is difficult to identify their age and cultural value by eye.

Few answers have gone another way from the question. They exported mangoes, pomegranates, black honey, tea. There were no questions about the products.

Black tea is a great idea. They are cheap and very tasty. Brewed quickly, bright orange color, slightly tart taste. We bought in a regular store, most often called Rose Tea or El Arosa Tea.
