Traveler Visa
 
Hello am going to Egypt in about 3 days now and I just wanted to make sure that visas are available for single foreign travelers? I have one from way earlier this year but am sure it has expired? Any info regarding that is great, thankyou :)

Don't take my word for it, but most Visas have an expiry date of 30, 60 or 90/days indicated. So if yours has expired, you'll need another.

Visa price for most passport holders is USD$15.

It also depends on your passport country. But if you've been able to get one in the past, it should be no problem.

I visited Egypt twice within about 30 days and bought a second one. Not sure if I needed it or I got it anyway but there was no issue buying another one. I don't recall the egyptian visas having anything about the length of time on them.

Check your consualr advisories for your passport country
which you do not state.Usually no problem they are desparate
for business right now.

And BTW most African Visas expire if you keave the country, so even if your visa is stll within 90 days, it has expired the moment you have left the country.

Out of curiosity - you are the one married to the man over here. I would be asking him to do this research for you if he is capable. That way you know who to blame if the answers are wrong. :D

Thankyou to everyone with the feedback im very excited and cant wait.


Why are you making fun of me with the married issue?

Casual_Cairo Dec 13th, 2011 09:06 PM

I'm not making fun. I wonder why you ask questions here on a forum with complete strangers when you have someone on the ground in Egypt that should be your first line of defense when it comes to questions. Maybe it's just me that would be wanting my husband to find out some of this stuff for me...if he is reliable, and one has to assume if you married him, he is.
Maybe he is too busy to worry about your visa issues. I don't know - that's why I asked.
