Do you need a visa if you are not going on excursions?
Guys, explain for those who are in the tank: I understood correctly, if I don’t plan to go on excursions (I’ve already been everywhere several times), but only a hotel, I don’t need to buy a visa for three at customs? Thank you

I can’t say how it is for Ukrainians, but Russians can not buy a visa, but get a Sinai stamp. On the migration card, write "Cenai only" and tell it to the customs officers. But even with this stamp, you can go to Israel and a few more excursions.

Yes it is.
But even with a Sinai stamp, you can go to the church of St. Catherine.

Sinai shtam put also for Ukrainians without problems, at least we were put right away (traveled 14.02.2013-21.02.2013). Another point: stay in the country should not exceed 15 days.

if you plan to stay in Egypt for no more than 15 days and do not plan excursions, then of course save money and do not buy a visa.
A visa can not be bought by Russians, Belarusians and Ukrainians.

How do you go through customs then?
аватар orbittours.ru
When the guides offer you a visa for more than 15, then you do not need to politely answer them. Then just fill out the migration card, put it in your passport and for control.
аватар MarSw
Does that mean you still have to pay $15?
аватар orbittours.ru
no, it’s not necessary, I meant bypassing the purchase of a visa, filling out a migration card and going to passport control, that’s all!
I'm sorry if I'm being vague :))))

At the bottom of the migration card, you need to write Sinai only / here is the link, you can see how it looks. Only there is one more condition with the Sinai stamp: you can stay in Egypt for no more than 15 days.

Thanks to the inhabitants of Turpravda, I saved $45. Thank you!

Are you already in Egi?
How is the weather there, is it windy? How is the sea?

Lenok2009, sorry for persistence, maybe this indulgence applies only to Russian citizens? In any case, the stupid operator will try to fray his nerves if he finds out about this economy.

No, the Sinai stamp is put on everyone who does not go on excursions where a visa is needed, and the period of stay in Sinai does not exceed 15 days.
My friend recently flew in from Sharm, they put the stamp without any nerves, right away. Without money.
A friend also visited the church of St. Catherine.

Even if you buy a visa, you will only need it for TWO excursions: the Pyramids and Ras Mohammed by bus and that's it! ALL other excursions can be visited from shinai only. I heard that some tour operators need a visa to Ras Mohammed on a yacht, but not all of them, we, in Vova Tours, for example, do not need it.
аватар orbittours.ru
you will need a stamp for 3 excursions Cairo, Luxor and Ras Muhammad by bus, for all others with a Sinai stamp you can)
аватар StefanSharm
Luxor and Cairo by plane, the visa is placed at the airport before departure.
аватар Allsharm.com
StefanSharm, It would be more correct to write like this, for those who wish to fly to Cairo or Luxor, but upon arrival did not buy a visa stamp, but put a sinai onli, and then decided to fly to Cairo or Luxor there is no reason to be upset - they can at the airport before departure, buy a visa stamp without any problems :)
