Does an Egypt business visa cover work activities?
An Egypt business visa does not allow you to undertake any activities that would be deemed work or gainful employment. If you intend to visit Egypt for work or labour purposes, you will need a work permit instead.
What should be included in the Egypt business visa invitation letter?
This letter should be from your employer or sponsoring company and include your name, employment status, and the purpose of your visit to Egypt. The letter must also contain the contact information of the party who will be financially responsible for you. This correspondence needs to be presented on the company’s stationery with an official letterhead and stamp. Please see our visa pack for more details.
