Do you want to apply for a visa for a holiday to Egypt in 2024 or 2025? All citizens of the European Union, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom can easily apply for their Egypt visa online. Keep in mind that children and babies also need their own visa.

What kind of visa do I need? The visa that you apply for on this website is sent by e-mail as a PDF document, hence it is called the electronic visa (e-visa). The Egypt e-visa is suitable for tourists who want to stay in Egypt for up to 30 consecutive days, for a holiday or to visit friends or family. Applying for an e-visa online is the easiest way to meet the visa requirement.

If you are not travelling to Egypt for tourism, or if you want to stay in Egypt longer than 30 consecutive days, you need to make an appointment at the Egyptian consulate to apply for a different type of visa.

Requirements for the e-visa to Egypt

If you want to travel to Egypt on an e-visa, you must comply with several visa requirements. The most important requirements are:

  • You have a passport that is valid for at least another 6 months on your day of arrival in Egypt
  • You are travelling with the same passport as the one you used during your visa application
  • You can provide the address of least one accommodation that you will be staying at in Egypt
  • You can provide the addresses of all the accommodations you are going to stay at
  • You can show all tickets of your remaining flights or cruises upon arrival
  • If you are staying with friends or family, bring a letter of invitation from them

You may still decide to arrive in Egypt up to 30 days earlier or 30 days later than the estimated date of arrival, sometimes even later than that. You can read exactly how this works on the page about the period of validity of the Egypt visa.
