The resident visa in Egypt it's valid only six months but it you travel outside during the six month visa,this will expire and need to make a new visa stamp u.s.$25,00 and go to the vida office fill the form pay Le.8,00 and return day after to get the six month visa on the passport.
But not happy for this,the new regulation to be more complicate will give the car licence only for the six months visa and two times per year make 200 km.to traffic police in El Tur.
Sorry if some one can suggest to the authorithies that with all these trouble will be more convenient for the entry to the cash of the Country to charge one year visa and one year car licence in one time at sale office and charge Le. 1000 for people below 65 years and Le.500 fothe over 65 years. Tunisia welcome the elder people,why Egypt is making difficult to come and stay?

That is my exact point in an another Forum - DO I NEED A VISA FOR EGYPT?

As tourists, we bring our money to spend in Egypt for the benefits of local people and Egyptian economy. Every time I have been to Egypt for the past two years, locals complain about lack of Tourists in Hurghada - A sea side resort. But what is the Government or the people are doing to attract the tourists. To do anything legally, we have to travel to Cairo - waste of a whole day. Same work can be done in other cities, with more jobs for locals.

But, I am sure there are more intellectual people in the official posts who can think better than us, tourists, for their country. Let see

I rented an apartment in Cairo to retire in and wish to ship my belongings there, however the聽 shipping company said I must have a long term visa or a work visa your of which I have neither.

Is there another way to ship my belongings?
