What documents are required for a visa for Egypt?

The exact list for Egypt is not published in a source we can verify. Every short-stay tourist application is nonetheless built on the same core:

• Valid passport
• Completed application form
• Compliant passport photo
• Proof of accommodation
• Return or onward ticket
• Proof of sufficient funds

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

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

• The competent post is the one accredited for Thailand, 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.

How long does a visa for Egypt take?

No verified processing time is published for this route. Apply as early as your travel dates allow, and never book non-refundable travel before the visa is granted.

Before you fly, and at the border

• Passport validity: most countries require the passport to stay valid beyond the return date, and the margin required differs from one destination to the next. Check it on the official source, and count from your return, not from your departure.
• A visa is not a right of entry. The border officer decides, and may ask for a return ticket, an address or proof of funds even when everything is in order.
• Conditional exemptions exist: several countries waive the visa for holders of a valid visa or residence permit from a third country. This depends on the destination and on the document, and we do not publish that rule when our sources do not carry it. The official page does.
• Minors travelling alone or with one parent are often asked for extra papers, typically a parental authorisation and the family record. Ask the post before booking.
• Overstaying is not a formality. It exposes you to a fine, to removal, and to an entry ban that can outlast the trip by years, including for the whole area when the destination belongs to one.
