Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities on Monday denied media reports claiming the country had increased its entry visa fee from $25 to $45, calling the claims “completely unfounded.”
In a Monday statement, the ministry said no decision has been issued to raise visa fees. It clarified that recent amendments to Law No. 175 of 2025 only set a maximum possible visa fee of $45 and do not affect the current $25 charge.
The ministry added that any future changes to visa procedures or fees will be announced through official channels by the relevant authorities.
It urged media outlets and social-media users to verify information with government sources and rely on formal statements for updates on visa policy.
