Inquiry about entry to egypt

Hey Aryan, Glad you found the guide helpful, For traveling to Egypt, you can usually apply for an e-visa online, make the payment digitally, and upload your basic documents (passport, photo, travel details). What I’d suggest: Apply through a reliable online platform or the official portal, and follow the steps — it’s pretty straightforward. You can check your e-Visa eligibility here:: https://evisa-egypt.info/eligible-countries-for-egypt-e-visa/ I’ve used this service recently, and they found it quite responsive and helpful, with updated details on their website If anything feels unclear, you can also check with the embassy or support team of the platform you’re using.

Hello Nouha, I actually looked into this for a friend recently — as an Algerian, you don’t always need to arrange a visa in advance for Egypt. If you’re only going to Sharm El Sheikh, you can usually get the Sinai-only entry stamp on arrival and stay up to 15 days without a visa. But if you plan to visit other cities like Cairo, then you’ll need a visa. To be on the safe side, it’s better to apply in advance through the embassy (since e-visa isn’t available for Algerians) or check with the airline/embassy about visa on arrival to avoid any last-minute issues

Hello, I need information on applying for an Egypt visa, payment support, and travel requirements. Also, the guide is very useful—thanks for sharing!

Hi AHMAD, Yeah, you’re good to go 👍 I came across a similar case recently — Indian passport holders can apply for the e-visa for Egypt without needing to visit the consulate. You can apply online through platforms like https://evisa-egypt.info/application/ — I’ve seen people use it and get timely support throughout the process. From experience, the e-visa is usually the easiest option, so no need for a sticker visa unless something unusual comes up.

Hi Ching, I checked this recently for a colleague — for Egypt, Philippine passport holders aren’t eligible for the e-visa, even if you’re a UAE resident. In their case, they had to apply through the Egyptian Embassy instead, and that was the only accepted route. So best to go with the embassy visa before traveling to avoid any issues

Hi Busenur Tilki I’ve seen a similar case before — in Egypt, long-term residency (like 3–5 years) isn’t usually handled directly by third parties based only on a work permit. It’s mostly processed through local immigration authorities with support from your employer. What you should do: Check with your company/HR first (they usually handle or guide this) Visit or contact the Egyptian immigration office for long-term residency options If needed, you can also confirm through the Egyptian Immigration Authority for exact requirements

Hey Rita maskill, I looked into this when planning a trip — for Egypt, a multiple-entry visa doesn’t lock you to one exact travel date. You can enter anytime within the visa validity period (not just the date you mentioned in the application). Just make sure: Your visa is still valid for your intended stay period. So yeah, your travel date can be a bit flexible as long as it’s within the validity period

Hey Moe Myint Thu Aung, I’ve seen similar situations — having a ticket and an invitation letter is helpful, but for a visa to Egypt, the main thing is your passport nationality. What you should do: Check if your nationality is eligible for an e-visa If not, apply through the Egyptian Embassy in Kuwait Your job and residence in Kuwait can support your application in Kuwait. Best to confirm with the embassy or apply based on your eligibility.

Hi Adam, I checked this when dealing with documents — for legalization at the Embassy, they usually require the original paper document, not just a PDF. In most cases, It must be a hard copy (original or certified copy). Already attested (like from UK authorities) before embassy submission. PDFs are generally not accepted for official legalization. Best to confirm once with the specific embassy you’re applying to

Hey Damcho Zam I checked a similar case before — for a short transit (like 2 hours) in Cairo, you usually don’t need a transit visa as long as you stay inside the airport. Just make sure: Your connecting flight is confirmed You don’t leave the transit area Your baggage is checked through to your final destination If all that is fine, you should be good without a visa for Egypt

Hey Sharmin Shumi From what I’ve seen, Sri Lankan and Bangladeshi passport holders are not eligible for Egypt e-visa. Visa on arrival is also limited, so best option is to apply through the Egyptian Embassy in advance

Hola Emmanuelle Zamorano Delgado Para Egipto, normalmente las visas turísticas no se emiten por 5 años. Aunque seas ciudadana española, debes renovar según el tipo de visa o solicitar residencia si vives allí. Lo mejor es consultar con inmigración local en Egipto
