Trade between Egypt and Saudi Arabia grew by 18.18 percent in 2024, reaching USD 6.5 billion compared to USD 5.5 billion in 2023, according to an announcement by Commercial Minister Plenipotentiary and Head of the Egyptian Commercial Office in Saudi Arabia Osama Basha.

Egypt now ranks seventh among Saudi Arabia’s largest trading partners. Saudi investments in Egypt have reached USD 37 billion across more than 6,830 companies, while Egyptian investments in Saudi Arabia total USD 5 billion through 805 companies.
