About Egypt's National Debt
Egypt's debt is elevated and heavily exposed to foreign currency, leaving it vulnerable to exchange-rate swings and global interest rates. It has repeatedly turned to the IMF and Gulf partners for financing support.
Egypt's debt-to-GDP ratio of 87% is elevated: higher than 78% of the 135 governments tracked here. No ratio is safe or dangerous on its own — whether a debt is sustainable depends on the interest rate on it, how fast the economy grows, the currency it is owed in and who holds it. By total government debt, Egypt ranks 31st of the 135 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $2K per second, Egypt adds about $151 million to its government debt every day — roughly $55.3 billion per year. Each of Egypt's 110 million residents carries an individual share of approximately $3,289. That is below the world average of roughly $14,600 in government debt per person.
Figures are computed by Global Debt Clock by linear extrapolation from each country's baseline figure, named in the source line on this page (for most countries, the IMF World Economic Outlook, October 2026). Actual debt changes through discrete bond issuances — these counters illustrate the approximate scale and pace of sovereign borrowing.
