How can Portuguese citizens apply for a visa to Egypt?

Portuguese citizens can apply for a visa to Egypt in two ways:

1. Electronic visa (e-Visa)

The most convenient way for Portuguese citizens to apply for a visa to Egypt is to obtain an electronic visa (e-visa). To apply for an e-Visa, you will need to:

• Visit the Egypt Immigration Services website.
• Create an account.
• Complete the online application form.
• Pay the e-visa fee.
• Submit your application.

Once your application has been processed, you will receive your e-visa by email within 72 hours. You will need to print out your e-visa and present it to the immigration officer upon arrival in Egypt.

2. Visa at the Egyptian embassy or consulate

When applying at the Egyptian embassy or consulate, the process can be more time-consuming and complex compared to the e-visa. You’ll need to schedule an appointment, which could involve long waiting times depending on availability. Additionally, applicants must travel to the embassy or consulate, sometimes more than once, to submit documents and pick up the visa. This can lead to extra costs for transportation and time off work.
