Applying for an Egypt visa from Dubai or anywhere in the UAE is a simple process when you have the right documents ready. Each visa type – whether tourist, business or multiple-entry – requires a few essential documents to confirm your identity, travel plans and purpose of visit. Preparing these in advance ensures a smoother application and helps avoid unnecessary delays.
At Premier Travel & Tourism LLC, applicants receive clear guidance on every step – from compiling the documents to submitting them correctly – so the visa approval process becomes quick and worry-free.
Let’s break down everything you need to know about the required documents for an Egypt visa and why each one matters.
1. Passport and Copies
The most important requirement is a valid passport. It must:
- Be valid for at least six months from your planned travel date.
- Have two or more blank pages for visa stamps.
- Include a clear photocopy of the first and last page (and any previous visas if applicable).
Travelers holding residence visas in the UAE should also include a copy of their Emirates ID and the UAE residence visa page in their passport.
2. Passport-Sized Photographs
Usually, two recent passport-size photos are required.
Make sure that:
- The background is plain white.
- The photo is taken within the last six months.
- You are not wearing sunglasses or headgear, unless for religious reasons.
This photo is used for identity verification on your visa sticker or e-visa document.
3. Flight and Hotel Bookings
Applicants must show proof of travel arrangements, including:
- A confirmed flight ticket (round trip preferred).
- A verified hotel booking or accommodation details.
Even if you are still finalizing your travel plans, you can provide a dummy hotel booking and dummy flight reservation to demonstrate your intent to travel. These documents are commonly accepted during visa processing as temporary proof of accommodation.
4. Proof of Financial Means
To show you can support yourself during your trip, applicants should include:
- Recent bank statements (last 3–6 months).
- Salary certificate or employment letter from your company in the UAE.
- For self-employed individuals: a trade license copy or proof of business ownership.
This step helps Egyptian authorities ensure visitors have adequate financial stability.
5. Visa Application Form
A properly filled Egypt visa application form is mandatory.
It should be:
- Typed or neatly handwritten in capital letters.
- Signed by the applicant.
- Matching all details found on your passport and supporting documents.
Double-check spelling, passport numbers and dates before submission to prevent rejection.
6. Travel Insurance (Recommended)
While not always compulsory, travel insurance is highly recommended for visa applicants. It covers emergencies, trip cancellations and health-related incidents during your stay in Egypt.
7. Supporting Documents (if applicable)
Depending on your purpose of travel, you may need extra papers such as:
- Invitation letter (for business visits or family trips).
- Company registration copy (for business purposes).
- Marriage certificate (for family-based applications).
Submitting all relevant details upfront increases your chances of approval without resubmission.
Having your documentation complete and organized is the key to a smooth visa process. It shows professionalism and genuine travel intent, helping the Egyptian Embassy or Consulate approve your request quickly.
