Consumers who want to enter Egypt must apply for an e-Visa. But be careful of dubious providers!
Watchlist Internet reports that a one-time entry as a tourist costs $25 on the official government website This is the cheapest price for the e-Visa. Other providers charge significantly higher costs for this. For this reason, caution is advised when applying.
Expensive e-Visa via third parties
Consumers who use a search engine to find out about the e-Visa for Egypt come across websites that give a reputable and official impression. They offer visitors to get the e-Visa for them. To do this, consumers should fill out an application, check their data and pay for the service. Nothing else is required of them on the official government website . In contrast to this, you have to pay additional costs for your e-Visa from third-party providers, because the small print on the websites states that there are additional service fees in addition to the costs of the e-Visa. They amount to at least $25. Consumers who do not apply for their e-Visa via the official government website must therefore pay inflated prices. In addition, they provide personal data and passport information to unknown website providers. It is unclear how the companies handle this information.

Have you applied for an expensive e-Visa?
In this case, please contact the provider and withdraw from the contract. Request a refund of the purchase price. In some cases it is possible to get the money back in this way. If this is not possible, try to get a chargeback from your bank or credit card company. There is no legal right to this. This can only be done as a gesture of goodwill.
