Egyptian visa policy for Irish citizens

Irish citizens need a visa to visit Egypt, and the most common option is the Egypt eVisa, which must be obtained before departure. Egypt also provides a Visa on Arrival option for Irish citizens at selected ports of entry. However, applying for the eVisa in advance is more convenient and helps avoid delays at the airport.

iVisa offers one entry document for Irish travelers:

Egypt eVisa: A mandatory electronic visa that allows Irish citizens to enter Egypt for tourism or business. Single-entry eVisas are valid for 90 days from issuance and allow stays of up to 30 days. Multiple-entry eVisas are valid for 180 days from issuance and also allow stays of up to 30 days per visit.

General Egypt visa requirements for Irish travelers are:
An Ireland passport valid for at least six months beyond the intended stay
Photo
Confirmed onward or return travel ticket
Proof of accommodation and travel itinerary
Evidence of sufficient funds for the duration of the stay
