Before travelling, please check the Visa requirements to enter Egypt through this link. On average, the processing time for an Egypt e-Visa application is 72 hours from the time of submission. It is recommended to apply at least 7 days before travelling to allow enough time to receive the entry permit. Ensure that all details are correct to avoid any delays. Should you need it, UITP can provide you with a letter to support your visa application.
