Important Notes

Iranian citizens generally require a pre-arranged visa for Egypt. This process is often complex and requires security clearance, which can lead to significant delays or rejections. It is strongly advised to apply well in advance through an Egyptian embassy or consulate in a country that maintains diplomatic relations with both Iran and Egypt (e.g., Oman, UAE, or a European country). Visa on arrival or eVisa options are typically not available for Iranian passport holders. Due to the political sensitivities, the process can be highly unpredictable, and specific costs and processing times are not uniformly published and can vary greatly.
