Archaeological and conservation work in Egypt is conducted under the auspices of the Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA), formerly the Egyptian Antiquities Organization (EAO), a bureau of the Ministry of Culture.
In 2002, the SCA established an Office of Foreign Archaeological Missions to supervise archaeological research (broadly
construed) in Egypt sponsored by non-Egyptian individuals and institutions.
The new Office of Foreign Archaeological Missions is in the process of reviewing and revising regulations governing the
activities of foreign expeditions or missions in Egypt. Regulations published by the Office in 2002 and in January 2003, supplemented by amendments issued in March and June, specify conditions, qualifications, fees, and reporting requirements that apply to all foreign expeditions undertaking scientific research in Egypt. These rules, as published, are set forth below. Any future regulations or revisions will be posted on this page.
