How to apply

Contact the relevant Egyptian embassy or consulate to confirm the appointment and submission procedure. Complete the required application form and submit the file in line with the instructions provided. For local requirements, consult the official portal or the competent embassy.

Where do you apply for a visa for Egypt from Israel?

A consular visa for Egypt is filed with the diplomatic post accredited for Israel, or with the application centre that post has appointed.

The competent post is the one accredited for Israel, which is not always the nearest one geographically.
An application centre collects the file and the biometrics. It does not decide, it cannot speed up a case, and it is not an agency.
Appointments are booked with the post or the centre directly. A slot is never sold, and no one can guarantee one.

What if Egypt has no embassy in Israel?

Then the application goes to the post accredited for Israel, often in a neighbouring capital, or to a state acting on its behalf. Confirm which post is competent with the official source before travelling to a third country to apply, a rejected file at the wrong counter costs the trip and the fee.

You live in Israel on another passport?

The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Israel but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.
