Do Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan citizens need a visa for Hurghada, Egypt, and how to get it?

The official e-visa site visa2egypt.gov.eg has no specific info for Kazakhstan and it's unclear how many days processing takes — better to confirm directly with the Egyptian embassy.

For Uzbekistan citizens, sources conflict: some say visa-on-arrival is possible at Hurghada airport, others insist it must be arranged in advance through the Egyptian consulate. Verify current rules before traveling.

Kazakhstan passport holders report the online visa site freezes and won't let them continue after selecting Kazakhstan as their passport country — the alternative is applying through the Egyptian embassy.

There are reports that Kazakhstan citizens traveling as part of an organized tour group can stay in Egypt visa-free for up to 15 days — but this should be confirmed with the tour operator or at the border since rules can change.
