Visa & Entry

Egyptian passport holders require a visitor visa (Temporary Resident Visa) to enter Canada. The visa must be obtained from a Canadian embassy or through the IRCC online portal before travel. Stays of up to 6 months are permitted per visit. Passport must be valid for the duration of stay, and biometrics are required for first-time applicants.

Verify entry requirements with official sources before travel.
Getting to CAI

Cairo has no direct rail link to the airport yet. Metro Line 3 terminates at Adly Mansour station, still several kilometers short of CAI. From Adly Mansour, taxis or ride-hails cover the remaining distance in 15-20 minutes. Uber and Careem from downtown Cairo to the airport cost EGP 100-200 and take 45-60 minutes outside rush hour. Rush hour (7:00-10:00, 16:00-20:00) on the Ring Road can double that.

Yellow metered taxis charge EGP 150-300 depending on your starting point. Old black-and-white taxis lack meters, so agree on a price before getting in. CTA public buses 356, 400, and 1138 run from central Cairo to the airport (EGP 5-25) but are slow and crowded. Airport shuttle buses from major hotels cost EGP 25-50. For reliability, Uber or Careem with a pre-set fare is the path of least friction.
