This Egyptian work is currently in the public domain in Egypt because its copyright has expired pursuant to the provisions of Intellectual Property Law 82 of 2002. The 2002 law, which repealed Copyright Law 354 of 1954, was not retroactive, meaning that works which had fallen into the public domain in 2002 remain out-of-copyright in Egypt (details).

In order to be hosted on Commons, all works must be in the public domain in the United States as well as in their source country. Egyptian works that are currently in the public domain in the United States are those whose copyright had expired in Egypt on the U.S. date of restoration (January 1, 1996) pursuant to the provisions of the old 1954 law which was in effect at the time.

Certain types of Egyptian works (official documents, stamps, works of national folklore) should use specific license tags instead of this generic tag.

This work is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship.

	12:50, 4 August 2025	900 × 600 (18 KB)	Dylam X	According to Article 223 of the Constitution of the Arab Republic of Egypt (Translated from Arabic): The flag of Egypt, the national flag of the Arab Republic of Egypt, consists of three colors: black, white, and red, and features an eagle taken from the 'Eagle of Saladin' in gold. The law defines the emblem of the republic, its decorations, insignias, seal, and national anthem. Disrespecting the Egyptian flag is a crime punishable by law.

	10:03, 31 July 2025	900 × 600 (18 KB)	Kaim Amin	Discuss before reverting. Fotw is not reliable and the Olympics flag is the closest to an official as countries provide their own flags.
	04:03, 31 July 2025	900 × 600 (18 KB)	ErrrrrWhat	Reverted to version as of 03:52, 30 October 2023 (UTC) I edited it. Sources like FOTW state that the shade of gold is darker. If you don't think it's reliable enough, or if the government website has a brighter shade of gold, then you can revert it back.
