Business Visa — Full Document Checklist
Applications lodged through the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt in Islamabad on a business profile are assessed against a heavier list than the standard tourist e-visa. This is the checklist our consultants work to:
- Original passport with a minimum of 6 months validity
- 4 photographs, 2×2 size, white background, taken within the last 6 months
- Copy of CNIC
- Bank statement for the last 6 months with a closing balance of at least PKR 1 million, together with an account maintenance certificate issued by the bank
- NTN certificate
- Two covering letters on your business letterhead, stamped
- Chamber of Commerce or trade body membership certificate
- Tax return
- Itinerary / flight booking
- Hotel booking
- Polio vaccination certificate (IPV), issued by a Government hospital or clinic
- Dengue report covering IgG, IgM and NS1
- The inviting party must send an intimation of the invitation directly to the Egyptian Embassy in Islamabad
Processing Time
E-visa applications are typically processed in 2–5 business days. Apply at least seven days before travel and carry a printed copy of the approved e-visa. Embassy business applications take longer and depend on the invitation reaching the mission.

Planning Your Trip to Egypt
Egypt is pyramids, the Nile and the Red Sea, and it remains one of the strongest history trips available anywhere — particularly with a guide who knows the sites.

Around six to eight hours with one stop from Pakistan.

Arabic. English is used in tourism.
Where Our Clients Usually Go

- Grand Egyptian Museum
- Luxor, Karnak and the Valley of the Kings
- Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan
- Abu Simbel
- Sharm el-Sheikh or Hurghada for the Red Sea
Before You Apply
Most refusals we see are avoidable. They come from a file that contradicts itself — dates that do not match bookings, funds that appear from nowhere, or a stated purpose the documents do not support. A few things are worth getting right from the start.
- A Nile cruise should be booked before applying, because it anchors the itinerary.
- Guided arrangements present better than unstructured independent plans.
- Return tickets and hotel confirmations are standard.
- Apply early, because appointment slots and processing times both stretch in peak season.
- Keep every document consistent, so that names, dates, employer details and travel dates agree everywhere.
- Never submit anything you cannot stand behind, as a single questionable document can close a destination to you for years.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is visa on arrival available?
Egypt has offered visa on arrival to some nationalities and an electronic visa to others, and the lists change. Confirm with us rather than relying on an older article.
How many days do I need?
Eight to ten nights for Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, and more if you add the Red Sea.
Do you arrange guides?
Yes. An Egyptologist guide transforms the sites, and we book them with the tour.
