Updated Info about VISA needed

When I was in Hurgada I tried to get a visa and they would not even let me in the building or talk to me.   Told me no more visas for foreigners  but I tried in Luxor and they stamped my visa saw security and that was in March 2016 still no visa.    I have friends that waited several months after they saw security and then got a visa from time they entered the country so visa was only for 7 months
Some got one month visa some got 6 months visas still is not any better but you do have a better chance if you have a business so you are paying taxes to the government Egypt is a wonderful place to live and the people are warm helpful and charming but the government for some reason wants foreigners gone
Egypt is wonderful worth trying         you I believe can still get a 3 month visa at the air port go visit see what you can do maybe they have changed
Egypt is the best.         I have been in Egypt since 2008 and do not want to leave ever
Good luck and Enjoy Egypt
