Hi Sir Mark joseph ask ko po yung embassy po nang aask invitation letter from my bf. What is that mean po. Kindly response po please
Hello! Just going to ask how many days ang processing ng Tourist Visa?
Hi, do you know if they still accept application on Fridays? A colleague of mine called the embassy just recently and she was informed that applications are accepted Mon-Wed only. I’m planning to submit my application on Friday since my departure date would be this coming Oct14. I’m applying for a business visa as I’ll be visiting our office in Cairo as part of our exchange staff program which would only take a couple of days. All expenses will be shouldered by my company throughout the trip. Do you think I would still be required to submit a personal bank cert? I hope the processing time wouldn’t take that long. Hoping to get a response from you as soon as possible. Thank you so much.
Make sure there is no ongoing holiday or observance in Egypt when you apply for a visa.
Hi sir good day. I just want to ask few questions regarding visiting egypt. Can I travel from kuwait to egypt with a ph passport? And also can i use bank statement in philippines as for the requirement? And regarding sa tourist visa, can i process it without going back in manila? Thank you.
You can use a PH bank statement if you’re going to apply in the Philippines, otherwise, provide all documentation from a country where you are going to apply for an Egyptian visa.
