Egypt unveils Smart Visas for travelers
Egypt plans to launch a new visa system based on digital technology, aiming to facilitate and improve the entry procedures for tourists and reduce waiting times at border crossings. The system will rely on QR codes instead of traditional stamps, allowing travelers to complete much of the visa process online before their trip. This initiative aims to enhance the visitor experience and alleviate traditional procedures. Official operations are expected to begin in August, with travelers able to obtain visas through the official website or tour operators up to 48 hours before arrival. The government is also focusing on increasing hotel capacity to around 500,000 rooms to achieve its goal of attracting 30 million tourists by 2030, by developing the tourism experience through technological integration and stimulating economic growth in the tourism sector.
