Citizens of most countries require valid visa to enter Egypt. The Consulate General of Egypt determines the duration of stay upon receiving an application.

Business: The Egypt business visa is designed to allow business travelers to come to Egypt in order to pursue business activities, such as attending meetings and conferences.  However, it excludes holders from seeking employment in Egypt.

Tourist:  The tourist visa (also known as the ‘visitor visa’ or ‘visit visa’) allows the holder entry to Egypt, but strictly forbids travelers from engaging in any work while they are in Egypt.  Egyptian tourist visa holders are also not allowed to extend their stay beyond the limits of the visa.
