The Egypt e-visa is a new electronic travel authorization system for citizens of eligible countries, who want to travel to Egypt as tourists. There is no need to go to the embassy; a traveler can apply for an e-visa online and obtain the correct travel authorization.
The process of the application it quite simple and requires just a basic information about an applicant, which is a valid passport of the eligible country (US, Canada, the UK, Australia, Japan, and 40 other countries), credit/debit card for the visa payment, and an email address for the electronic visa.
After the visa application has been submitted and approved, an applicant should print the document and have the hard copy of it upon arrival in Egypt.
