Visa requirements for Egyptian citizens

Visa requirements for Egyptian citizens are administrative entry restrictions imposed on citizens of Egypt by the authorities of other states.

As of January 2026, Egyptian citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 50 countries and territories, ranking the Egyptian passport 78th in the world according to the Henley Passport Index and It is ranked 72nd by the Global Passport Power Rank.

However, according to the most up-to-date list compiled on this wiki, Egyptian passport holders can enter 73 countries (not counting dependent and partially unrecognized territories) with Visa on arrival, or easy e-Visas or complete visa free under certain conditions (See table and map below). In addition, several states have updated their rules recently to allow holders of valid Schengen / EU, UK, USA, Japan and Australia visas and residence permits to enter visa free under certain conditions, as listed in the table below.

Some countries require transit visas even if the Egyptian national remains airside (i.e. does not go through passport control). These include: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United States, United Kingdom, and a minority of European states: Czech Republic, Poland, Romania and Spain. Some states also apply pre-flight measures (so-called OK To Board checks), leading some airlines to refuse passengers deemed risky
