The 2004 Circular 49/2004 issued by the Ministry of the Interior specifically instructed officials to refrain from providing cards to anyone other than Muslims, Christians and Jews. In particular, it effectively forced practicing Bahá'ís into a limbo when registering for personal documents. As Egyptian citizens are required to include their religious affiliation and the Bahá'í faith was not officially recognized, unlike Islam, Christianity and Judaism, practicing Bahá'ís were not able to secure official status.
