FAQ
Is this the official Egypt e-visa?
Yes. It is the official e-visa, and we lodge your application directly with the government.
What does the price include?
Everything: the government e-visa fee, our eligibility check, preparation, lodging, tracking and delivery of the PDF. There is nothing to pay on arrival for the visa itself.
I am only going to Sharm El Sheikh. Do I need this?
If you hold an EU, UK or US passport, arrive at a South Sinai airport and stay only in South Sinai for 15 days or less, a free stamp is available on arrival. It is not valid for Cairo, Luxor or anywhere outside South Sinai. If you will leave Sinai, you need the e-visa.
My passport is not on the list. What now?
Our passport check tells you before you pay. Some travellers qualify for a visa on arrival with a valid Schengen, US, UK, Canadian, Australian, Japanese or New Zealand visa, or a Gulf residence permit. Others need an embassy visa. Either way our team will point you to the right path, free.
Can you guarantee approval?
No. Egypt's Ministry of Interior decides. Our job is to make sure the application matches your passport exactly, which is what causes most refusals, and to catch problems before you pay.
