Import Farm Tractors from the USA to Egypt — We Don't Sell, We Import
A used US tractor reaches Egypt through Alexandria, and it clears faster when the paperwork is right: GOEIC conformity and the Nafeza single-window filed before arrival. We import tractors to Egypt; we don't sell them or hold stock. Our difference is that we inspect the actual machine at origin before you pay, then clear it rather than leave it at the port.
- US-wide sourcing across dealers and auctions, matched to horsepower and implements
- Origin inspection of the specific tractor before any money moves
- Export documentation plus phytosanitary certificate where required
- Ocean freight to Alexandria, GOEIC conformity and Nafeza filing coordinated
- English and Arabic WhatsApp support from quote to release
Meridian owns sourcing, origin inspection, export documents and freight. Your licensed Egyptian broker owns the customs entry: classification, duty, VAT and admissibility.

Process
How we handle the shipment
Every shipment runs in the same order: confirm the tractor, inspect it, move it. Condition, implements and documents are settled before the freight is booked, so the entry doesn't stall at Alexandria.
1
Send us the tractor
A listing link or the make, model, year, hours and US location. If you only know the horsepower class and implements you need, we search the dealer and auction network for candidates.
2
We inspect at origin
We put eyes on the machine: condition, hours, completeness and whether the implements match the listing. We also have it cleaned of soil and plant debris so it doesn't stall on arrival.
3
Documents and conformity
Export documents, the phytosanitary certificate where required, and the GOEIC conformity step arranged before shipment. The shipment pre-registers through Nafeza/ACID ahead of arrival.
4
Cleared at Alexandria
A licensed Egyptian broker files the entry and takes the tractor through clearance. Handover happens after customs, not before it.
Scope
What the quote covers and what it doesn't
We separate the international leg we control from the local costs and formalities your despachante confirms.
Quote
What we need to prepare a useful quote
These details let us shortlist, inspect and price the leg to Alexandria around a real machine instead of a guess.
- Listing link, or make, model and year of the tractor
- Engine hours and condition, if known
- Preferred US region or budget, if you don't have a specific unit yet
- Destination in Egypt (Cairo, Alexandria, the Delta or Upper Egypt) and target timing
- Whether you already have an Egyptian customs broker
- Intended use (farm operation, cooperative, resale) so we can advise honestly

Share the machine and the destination; we send back the scope of the international leg in writing.
Local compliance
Duty, VAT and conformity: the Egyptian broker's lane
The US side is ours; the Egyptian figures are not. A licensed Egyptian customs broker confirms the exact duty line, VAT and used-goods admissibility for your specific tractor against the current Egyptian Customs Authority tariff before you commit funds. A reduced VAT rate can apply to qualifying production equipment, but that is verified per machine. Used machinery is subject to GOEIC conformity assessment, and every shipment pre-registers through the Nafeza/ACID single-window.
Meridian has coordinated more than 1,000 exports to more than 40 countries.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What buyers ask us most before they ship.
No. We hold no stock and sell nothing. You pick the tractor, or we shortlist one, and we import it: sourcing, origin inspection, freight to Alexandria and customs clearance through a licensed Egyptian broker.
Yes. Used machinery imported into Egypt is subject to GOEIC conformity assessment, and each shipment pre-registers through the Nafeza/ACID single-window before it arrives. We prepare the export documents and coordinate the conformity step so the entry clears cleanly.
We inspect the actual machine at origin before you pay: condition, hours, implements and completeness. You're not buying a photo. That discipline has backed 1,000+ machines exported to 40+ countries since 2013.
Duty and VAT depend on how customs classifies your specific tractor; a reduced VAT rate can apply to qualifying production equipment. Your broker gives you the final figures per shipment. We don't quote landed costs on assumptions.
We clear it. A licensed Egyptian broker files the entry and your tractor leaves Alexandria as cleared cargo, not a problem waiting at the port. Port drop-off has never been where our job ends.
