How much visa in Egypt? I’m filipino I want tourist visa in Egypt.
Hi, I would like to ask, i am half egyptian and half filipino. I am on my 30’s na. Is there a possible way for me to file dual citizenship pa ba? For visiting egypt can i not declare that i have family member there, and if i declared that i am half egyptian would they also ask? I am thinking kasi if i applied for Tourist Visa they might ask me my nationality, if you know what i mean, i really do look like them kasi. 🙂 Your response is highly appreciated. Thank you.
Please do not hesitate to call the embassy regarding your case 🙂
