Banks will resume normal working hours starting 1 September, nearly six months after the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) shortened working hours for the banking system amid strict preventive measures against the coronavirus .

Banks – working in the Egyptian market – will open for clients from 8:30 am to 3 pm, while working hours for employees will be from 8 am to 4 pm.
