Egypt is revamping its entry process with a new digital visa-on-arrival system, set to debut in mid-June at Cairo International Airport. This pilot initiative will enable travelers to secure emergency visas upon arrival via QR codes, with payments handled electronically via airport kiosks or a mobile app. The development promises to be a game-changer for last-minute travelers or those lacking complete documentation. It aims to ease airport congestion and make arrivals more seamless. By simplifying the visa process, Egypt is signaling its intent to modernize border services and enhance tourism accessibility. If successful, the program could roll out nationwide—ushering in a new era of smarter, traveler-friendly entry systems.
