Indian nationals must have a tourist visa to enter Egypt. To simplify the process, the Egyptian government offers an online eVisa, allowing travelers to apply without visiting an embassy.
What is the Egypt eVisa?
The Egypt eVisa is an official travel document that allows Indian nationals to enter Egypt for tourism or business purposes. It serves as an online alternative to a traditional visa, eliminating the need to visit an embassy or consulate.
After approval, the eVisa will be sent via email, ready for use.
The Egypt eVisa allows stays of up to 30 days per entry and is available in two formats:
- Single-entry visa: Valid for 90 days from issuance, permitting one-time entry.
- Multiple-entry visa: Valid for 6 months from issuance, allowing multiple entries during that period.
