As of mid-2026, Indian passport holders should confirm Egypt's exact entry requirements directly on the official e-Visa portal before booking. Egypt runs an e-Visa system for many nationalities, but eligibility, fees, and permitted stay are set by current government policy and can change. This guide points you to the official channel rather than quoting specifics that can go out of date.
Where to check the current rules
- Egypt e-Visa Portal — the official government portal for e-Visa applications, eligibility, fees, and processing times.
Last checked for this guide on 5 August 2026. Rules, fees and permitted stay durations can change — always confirm on the official portal closest to your travel date.
What to have ready before you check
- Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your travel dates.
- A digital passport-style photo, typically required for e-Visa applications.
- Return or onward flight confirmation and proof of accommodation.
