Your Entry Visa To
Egypt
Most tourists and visitors
to Egypt can obtain an entry visa at any of
the major airports or ports of entry. All
foreigners arriving in Egypt should have a
valid passport (with at least 6 months left,
before expiry) to get an entry visa.
The visa can also be obtained from
Egyptian
Diplomatic and Consular Missions abroad, or
from the visa department at the Travel
Documents, Immigration and Nationality
Administration (TDINA) building at Mogamma.
How to obtain your visa at the airport:
The visa is simply a stamp (like a mail or
postage stamp) that you buy from the visa
office, which you arrive at, just before the
immigration booth; you can't miss it! The
visa will cost you around $15 and after
buying it; you just stick in any empty page
on your passport. Don't worry; it’s so easy!
Once you have bought your visa you then
stand in line to get your passport stamped
by the immigration officer.
USEFUL TIP:
While you are buying your visa,
use the opportunity to exchange your
currency, but please note, only $US, £UK or
Euros can be accepted.
Visitors entering Egypt at the overland
border post at Taba, to visit the Gulf of
Aqaba coast and St. Catherine’s, can be
exempt from requiring a visa and be granted
a free residence permit, valid for fourteen
days, to visit the area.
