So i went to embassy to get my passort and it’s visa approved!! I didn’t expect it to be that quick. I just applied last tuesday and by friday it was released! Thank you so much for your blog helped a lot!
Glad to hear that. I just called the embassy regarding your case, no changes since April. But once they asked you original passport, it’s a sign that you will get a visa.
Hello! I’m also planning to go to Egypt. Did you book your flight tickets in advance? I hope you’ll reply. How much do they require for the show money?
I didn’t book flights. They don’t require a specific amount. As long as you can sustain your stay and that you have an emergency fund, you’re good to go.
