Visa & Entry

Indian passport holders need a visa to enter Egypt. Unlike many nationalities, Indians cannot get the standard eVisa or visa on arrival. Apply at the Egyptian Embassy in New Delhi or the consulate in Mumbai. A single-entry tourist visa costs INR 2,000 to INR 2,500 (about $25 to $30) and takes 5 to 10 working days to process. Multiple-entry visas are available for higher fees. Bring the application in person or through an authorized agent.

Required documents include a passport valid for at least 6 months with two blank pages, two passport photos, completed application form, confirmed round-trip flight tickets, hotel reservation for the entire stay, bank statements for the last 3 months, and an employment letter. Business visas also need an invitation from an Egyptian company. The embassy may request additional documents. Collect the passport with the visa sticker within the stated processing window.

Direct flights from Delhi and Mumbai to Cairo run about 5 hours 30 minutes to 6 hours on Air India and EgyptAir. Connections through Dubai, Doha, or Jeddah add 3 to 5 hours.
