Do You Need a Security Approval to Enter Egypt?

Most Yemeni and Sudanese travelers to Egypt require prior security approval or a visa before travelling, but the requirement differs according to age, country of residence, and purpose of travel. Some categories are exempt, such as holders of valid residency in certain countries, spouses and children of Egyptian nationals, and certain study and medical cases.

Because these requirements change from time to time, we do not give you a general answer. Send us your passport details and your purpose of travel, and we will tell you the correct procedure for your case before you pay anything.
