The most common visa mistakes that slow travelers down at Egyptian airport immigration. Egypt Rest Tours put this guide together from real client questions and years of on-the-ground experience across the country.

Most Western travelers, including citizens of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and the European Union, can obtain an Egyptian visa on arrival at major airports or apply in advance through the official e-visa portal.

Egypt's e-visa system allows travelers to apply online before departure, typically receiving approval within a few business days, which avoids the arrival-hall queue for a visa-on-arrival stamp.

A standard Egyptian tourist visa is valid for a single entry of up to thirty days, though multiple-entry visas valid for extended stays are available for travelers planning side trips to neighboring countries.
