Single Entry Tourist Visa (تأشيرة سياحية لدخول واحد)

The Single Entry Tourist Visa is a foundational component of Egypt's border management, long established to facilitate international tourism by providing a straightforward entry permit for short-term visitors. It fills the gap for travelers who do not require complex residency or work authorization, offering a reliable, standardized mechanism for entry at major ports or via diplomatic missions. This visa is designed to support the country's tourism sector by ensuring that entry requirements remain accessible and efficient for the vast majority of leisure travelers arriving for vacations or cultural exploration.

This visa is intended for international tourists from qualifying countries who intend to visit Egypt for a single, continuous stay of up to 30 days. It is ideal for travelers on standard holiday itineraries, such as Nile cruises or resort stays, who do not plan to leave and re-enter the country during their trip. Its distinctiveness lies in its simplicity and immediate availability at major Egyptian airports, making it the most common choice for visitors seeking a hassle-free, short-term entry permit for leisure purposes.
