List of Prime Ministers of Egypt

This page lists the holders of the office of Prime Minister of Egypt. The office was created when the Cabinet of Egypt was established in August 1878, after Khedive Isma'il Pasha agreed to turn his powers over to a cabinet modeled after those of Europe. Nubar Pasha was thus the first Prime Minister of Egypt in the modern sense. Prior to that, Egypt had traditional Muslim-style viziers. The current Prime Minister of Egypt is Sherif Ismail, since 19 September 2015.^[1]
