Mandatory Application Prerequisites

To ensure a successful approval, your documents must comply with the following standards:

1. Six-Month Passport Rule: Your passport must be valid for a minimum of 6 months from your date of arrival in Egypt.

2. Passport Scan Quality: A clear, color photograph or scan of your passport's bio-data page, showing the entire page including the two lines of the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) at the bottom.

Important Sinai Peninsula Exception

If you are traveling directly to the Sinai resorts (Sharm El Sheikh, Dahab, Nuweiba, or Taba) and staying for under 15 days, you may be eligible for a free "Sinai Only" stamp on arrival. However, if you plan to visit Cairo, Luxor, or travel anywhere outside the Sinai Peninsula, you must obtain a standard Egypt e-Visa before your journey.
