Visa & Entry

German passport holders need a visa to enter Egypt. The simplest option is the eVisa through visa2egypt.gov.eg. A single-entry 30-day visa costs USD 25. The multiple-entry version costs USD 60 and allows multiple entries over 180 days, each stay limited to 30 days. Apply at least 7 days before travel. Most eVisas are approved within 5 business days.

You can also buy a visa on arrival at Egyptian airports. The fee is USD 25 for a single-entry 30-day visa, paid at a bank counter in the arrivals hall before passport control. Have exact USD or EUR cash ready. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from entry.

For Sinai-only trips entering through Sharm el-Sheikh or Taba, German citizens get a free 15-day entry permit. This is stamped at the airport or border and restricts you to the Sinai Peninsula. If you plan to visit Cairo, Luxor, or anywhere in mainland Egypt, get the full visa.
