The Egypt visa system is known for being difficult to navigate – your photo must be the right size, and your passport scan must be clear. We check for errors, missing information, or anything that could slow down your approval.
We’re not the Egyptian government, but we submit your application to them and are here for you along the way if there are any problems.
Once your Egypt visa application is approved, we’ll notify you by email right away and let you know how to use it for your trip.
Purpose: The Egypt eVisa is issued for travelers visiting Egypt for tourism purposes, including sightseeing, holidays, and visiting family or friends.
Duration and extensions The Egypt eVisa allows a stay of up to 30 days per visit. It is generally not extendable.
Entries: The Egypt eVisa is available as either a single-entry visa (valid for one entry within its validity period) or a multiple-entry visa (allowing multiple entries within the validity period). Each stay may not exceed 30 days.
Ports of entry: Egypt eVisa holders may enter through designated international airports and major ports of entry, including Cairo International Airport, Hurghada International Airport, Sharm El Sheikh International Airport, and other approved entry points.
Delivery format: The approved eVisa is issued electronically and sent via email as a PDF. Travelers must print a copy of the approved eVisa and present it, along with their valid passport, upon arrival in Egypt.
The tourist visa issued by Egyptian embassies or consulates is designed for those traveling for leisure, sightseeing, or visiting family and friends.
It usually allows you to stay in Egypt for up to 90 days. To apply, you’ll need to visit the nearest Egyptian embassy or consulate in person, submit a visa application form, a passport photo, proof of where you’ll be staying, and sometimes a return flight booking.
*We currently don’t offer this visa.
Egypt offers several visa options, including the Egypt eVisa, a visa on arrival (VoA) for eligible nationalities, and visas issued through Egyptian embassies or consulates.
Citizens of many countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and EU member states, may obtain a Visa on Arrival at Egyptian international airports for stays of up to 30 days or apply in advance for an Egypt eVisa online. Travelers are encouraged to apply for the eVisa prior to departure to avoid delays upon arrival.
Eligible travelers visiting specific resort areas in South Sinai (such as Sharm El Sheikh, Dahab, Nuweiba, and Taba) may receive a free entry permission stamp valid for up to 15 days.
