Link X is an Egyptian company built around four main services, in Egypt and abroad. First, study abroad: we handle everything from your first document to your first year at university, and we follow your file all the way. Second, certified translation in 8 languages, accepted in Egypt and abroad. Third, travel abroad: together with our trusted partners, we take care of every part of your trip — more comfort, at a competitive price. Fourth, real estate in Egypt, the UAE, Oman and beyond, and co-working spaces in Mansoura, Samannoud and Nasr City. One team, one file, and clear answers at every step.
Mansoura (Al Andalous Building, opposite the gate of the Faculty of Education), Samannoud (Al Saidi Building, Church St.) and Nasr City, Cairo (1st May Buildings, Al Nasr Road). We are open Saturday to Thursday, 12:00 to 20:00. Mansoura and Samannoud welcome you without an appointment; Nasr City is by appointment only. You can also do everything on WhatsApp: +20 10 4475 7313.
We arrange everything through one team, working with several partners to find you the best option. We assess your grades and budget, suggest the right programmes, apply to universities, translate and certify your documents, review your offer letter, prepare your complete visa file, book your embassy appointment, flights and accommodation — and we stay with you for a free year after you arrive. From your first documents to the visa decision usually takes one to six months, depending on the country and your field of study, so start six to nine months before your study date.
More than 4,000 universities in 68 countries, through our partner network. Most of our students choose Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Europe — especially Germany — and these are the systems we know in the greatest depth. Tell us your budget and your field, and we will tell you where your chances are best.
For a free first assessment, only your latest certificate and the country you have in mind. To apply, we usually need your passport, your certificates and transcripts, a language test result where required, and — for postgraduate study — a personal statement and recommendation letters. You receive an exact checklist for your university and country, and we translate everything in-house.
It depends on the university and the country. Many accept IELTS, TOEFL, PTE or Duolingo; some accept proof that your previous study was in English; and some offer a language or foundation year first. We tell you exactly what your programme requires before you book any test.
Yes. We look for the scholarships and tuition discounts you actually qualify for, and we prepare and submit your application. Scholarships are competitive and the decision belongs to the university or the funding body, so we tell you honestly where your chances are strong — and we build a plan B with programmes that fit your budget.
In most of our destinations, yes — international students can usually work part-time during term and full-time in holidays, within limits set by each country. Many countries also offer a work permit after graduation. The rules change, so we give you the current rules for your country before you apply. Plan your budget without counting on work income in your first months.
We prepare the complete file and the bookings for:
Our trusted partners abroad receive you at the airport and take care of your arrangements on the ground.
Services designed especially for businessmen and women travelling abroad: a car with driver, a personal assistant, bookings and schedule management — and, most importantly, connections with the right business people. We connect property investors with developers and brokers, and education providers with university admission officers, and we bring in workspace and residency partners, and licensed lawyers when needed.
We prepare your complete file and bookings. Depending on your destination, you submit the application yourself at the embassy or visa centre, or our partners abroad handle it for you.
Either way, we tell you clearly from the start who does what — and we prepare you for your appointment.
No. No one can guarantee a visa — the decision belongs 100% to the embassy or the authorities. What we promise is a complete, carefully prepared file.
Before you start, we give you an honest estimate of your chances. If we believe they are weak, we tell you before you pay.
We read the refusal letter with you — it usually states the reason — and explain your options honestly: correct the file and apply again, appeal where the country allows it, or choose another destination.
And you don't lose our service fee: see "If the embassy refuses my visa, will I get my money back?" under Refunds.
Yes. Every document is translated by a sworn translator, certified and stamped by Link X, and carries a QR code that any embassy, university or authority can verify in seconds.
Some documents also need Ministry of Foreign Affairs authentication, and a few embassies require their own approved translators. We tell you at the quote stage, before you pay — so nothing comes back to you unusable.
Arabic, English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Polish — in every direction.
The price depends on the document, its length and the language. Send a clear photo on WhatsApp and you'll receive the exact price and delivery date — usually within an hour during working hours.
Arabic and English: 1–2 business days. Other languages: 3–4 business days.
Same-day service is available on request.
The clock starts once your payment and documents are complete, and that moment is timestamped in your portal for both of us to see.
Every document is checked line by line by the translator and then by two reviewers. If we still make an error, or miss the date on your quote, we correct it within 24 hours.
And we refund your fee for that document in full. Late or wrong — you don't pay.
No. Send your documents on WhatsApp or through the portal, pay, and receive your certified translation by courier anywhere in Egypt. You are always welcome at our branches if you prefer to come in person.
It depends on the service. For study abroad, our service fee starts from US$500 for Europe and goes up to US$2,000 for the UK, Canada, the USA, Australia and New Zealand. For translation, travel, real estate and co-working, you receive an exact written quote after we review your request — before you pay anything.
No surprises. Before you pay, you receive a written estimate of every cost — our fee, tuition, embassy fees, insurance and travel — so you know your total from day one. Our fee is fixed in your signed agreement; the only possible addition is an instalment charge, if you choose to pay in stages.
Yes. The study-abroad service fee can be paid in stages that follow your file — part when you start, and the rest after your admission or even after you arrive. The schedule is written in your agreement, and any additional charge depends on the period and the amount remaining.
No. Tuition is paid directly to the university, and embassy fees directly to the embassy or visa centre. In some cases a fee can only be paid online — then you pay it through us and receive an official receipt. We guide you through every payment step by step.
If anyone ever asks you to pay tuition to a personal account in Link X's name, contact us immediately on +20 10 4475 7313.
Our service fee covers our work: assessment, university applications, follow-up, your visa file and your free year of follow-up abroad. It does not include amounts paid to other parties — tuition, embassy and visa-centre fees, insurance, flights, accommodation, language tests or courier. Certified translation is quoted separately.
Always. Every file starts with a signed agreement that states the service, the fee and the refund terms, and every payment gets an official receipt.
Every certified translation and official letter we issue carries a QR code. Scan it with your phone camera and you'll see the original record on our website in seconds.
Yes. We are committed to keeping your loss as small as possible, so we refund our service fee in full.
This does not include amounts already paid to other parties — embassy and visa-centre fees, insurance, university application fees or any government fees. Before we start, ask us exactly what is refundable; it is written in your agreement.
Yes. If you cancel before we start work on your file, we refund our fee in full. After work has started, we refund the part of the fee for the stages not yet done. Amounts already paid to other parties cannot be refunded. The exact terms are in your agreement.
Send us a message on WhatsApp (+20 10 4475 7313) or email [email protected] with your name and file number — or visit your branch.
We confirm your request within 3 working days and return the amount the same way you paid.
In some countries, yes. In the UAE and Oman, a qualifying property purchase can support a Golden Visa or investor residency application, handled by our partners there. Each country sets its own conditions and minimum values, and the final decision always belongs to the authorities — our property desk tells you exactly what applies before you buy.
Yes. We use your documents only for the service you asked for, share them only with the university, embassy or partner your file needs, and never sell or publish them. Your original documents stay with you unless a step requires them.
