India Visa for Egyptian Citizens — What You Need to Know
Egyptian citizens need a visa to visit India. The most common option is the embassy visa, allowing stays of up to 180 days. The government fee is $160, with 7–14 day processing through PassportsAndVisas.com. Our specialists review every Egypt application before submission — catching photo errors, passport validity issues, and data mismatches that cause 73% of rejections. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned arrival date with 2 blank pages. In business since 1992, we have processed over 500,000 visa applications — including thousands for Egyptian passport holders.
India Visa Policy for Egyptian Citizens — 2026 Update
India's visa policy for Egyptian citizens requires advance application before travel. The embassy visa process requires submission to the nearest India consulate or embassy. The government fee of $160 is set by India immigration authorities and is subject to change. PassportsAndVisas.com monitors policy updates daily and will notify you of any fee changes after your application is submitted.
Egyptian citizens should apply for their India visa at least 17 days before departure to allow time for processing and any document corrections. Rush processing is available for travelers with imminent departure dates. The visa is typically issued as a single-entry permit valid for 90 days from the issue date — entry must occur within this window, and the 180-day stay period begins on arrival.
Traveling to India from Egypt — What to Know Before You Go
Planning a trip to India from Egypt involves a few key logistics beyond the visa. Direct flights are available from major Egypt hubs to India's main international airports, with flight times varying depending on your departure city. We recommend booking refundable tickets until your visa is approved — PassportsAndVisas.com's service fee is charged only after visa approval, so you are not committed financially before your visa is confirmed.
Passport preparation is the most important step. Your Egypt passport must have at least 6 months of validity remaining beyond your departure date from India, and at least 2 blank pages for entry stamps. If your passport is expiring soon, PassportsAndVisas.com can expedite Egypt passport renewal — often faster than standard government processing times.
Once your India visa is approved, you will receive a PDF confirmation by email. Print this document and carry it with your passport — some India border officials require a physical copy, even for eVisas. Save a digital backup on your phone as well. Your visa details will also be linked to your passport number in India's immigration database.
How Egyptian Citizens Apply for a India Visa — Step by Step
Applying for a India visa as a Egyptian citizen through PassportsAndVisas.com takes 5–10 minutes online. You will need your Egypt passport (valid for 6+ months), a digital passport photo meeting India's exact specifications, and your travel dates. Our system guides you through each field and flags potential errors before submission.
The most common reason Egyptian citizens face India visa rejection is passport photo non-compliance. India requires a white background, 35x45mm dimensions, taken within the last 6 months, with no glasses. Our proprietary photo-check system automatically validates your photo against India's requirements before we submit — catching the errors that cause the majority of preventable rejections.
After submission, your application is reviewed by a Egyptian-specialist on our team — someone familiar with the specific patterns that trigger scrutiny for Egypt passport holders. We submit to India Immigration within 2 hours of receiving your complete file. You will receive email updates throughout the process, and your approved visa PDF will be delivered to your inbox — typically within 7–14 business days.
