List of Portuguese ambassadors in Egypt

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of Portuguese ambassadors in Egypt lists the ambassadors of the Republic of Portugal in Egypt . The two countries have enjoyed uninterrupted diplomatic relations since Egypt gained independence in 1953.

A Portuguese consulate general had existed in Alexandria since at least 1888 and, until 1938, represented Portuguese interests in Egypt as a diplomatic agency. With a law passed on November 24, 1942, Portugal set up a first legation in Cairo, which belonged to the administrative district of the Portuguese ambassador in the Turkish capital Ankara . On December 28, 1945 , the first Portuguese representative with his official seat in Cairo was accredited in Egypt, and on February 2, 1960 the legation was elevated to a full embassy.
