Frequently asked questions about Huawei phone fees and taxes


Do all Huawei phones have fees due on them?
No. The status of a Huawei phone cannot be determined from the model name alone, as each device is assessed individually according to its record in the official system.


How much are the fees on the HUAWEI Mate XT in Egypt?
The fee amount we have for the HUAWEI Mate XT is about 65,317 EGP. It is one of the highest amounts because fees are linked to each device's reference price, and the Mate XT is one of the most expensive foldable phones.


How do I find out the fees on my Huawei phone?
First get the IMEI number by dialing *#06# or from Settings, then About phone. Then enter it in the Telephony app or website to see the device's status and any fees due. If the phone supports two SIM cards, both IMEI numbers should be entered.


Do Huawei fees drop after a new model is released?
They can. In September 2026, the head of the Egyptian Customs Authority explained that phones' reference prices are reviewed periodically in coordination with the manufacturers, and that a lower price for a model may be reflected in the fees due on it.


Can Huawei phone fees be paid in installments?
Yes. Since April 2026, the Egyptian Customs Authority and the National Telecom Regulatory Authority have offered an installment service for the fees due on phones brought in from abroad through valU.


I bought a Huawei phone outside Egypt, is there an exemption?
The exceptional exemption for a personal phone brought in from abroad ended on January 21, 2026. Egyptians residing abroad get a grace period of 120 days from the date the device is first activated in Egypt, while tourists get 90 days.


What happens if I do not pay the fees on my Huawei phone?
Once the grace period ends, the phone stops working on Egyptian mobile networks, although it can still be used over Wi-Fi. The device is reconnected to the networks after the payment is completed successfully.


Do the fees cover HUAWEI Watch or MatePad devices?
No. These fees apply to mobile phones only, and do not cover HUAWEI Watch smartwatches, MatePad tablets or FreeBuds earbuds.


I bought a Huawei phone inside Egypt, will I need to pay additional fees?
That depends on each individual device. At Ennap.com, we state the fee status of every phone on its product page before you complete the purchase, and you can check your phone's status using its IMEI number through the Telephony app if you would like to be sure.


Where can I find a full explanation of how mobile phone fees work?
You can refer to the guide to mobile phone fees in Egypt to learn how the system works, how to check a device, the grace period and the payment methods.
