Do I need a visa to travel to Egypt?

If you're travelling to Sharm el Sheikh, Dahab, Nuweiba and Taba resorts for up to 15 days, you will receive a free entry permission stamp upon arrival. If you intend to travel out of the Sharm El Sheikh area or stay longer than 15 days, you must also get a visa.

A tourist visa is required for visitors to all resorts in Hurghada, Marsa Alam and Luxor. You can apply for an e-visa online via this website: www.visa2egypt.gov.eg/eVisa, you can also purchase a visa on arrival in resort if you hold a full British Passport. The visa cost at the moment is $25 USD per person including children and infants if purchased from the local authorities or £25 GBP if purchased from our destination management company. Please note Visas purchased on the spot are cash only. cards are not accepted. If you hold a passport issued by any other country, you will need to check what the visa requirements are to enter Egypt.

Your passport must be valid for at least six full months after the date you arrive in Egypt. Anything less than this will result in you not being able to travel.
