What the community said
A traveler testing the e-visa application was charged $25 instead of the expected higher price — apparently Egypt's pricing system isn't always updated, and the price used to be as low as $20.

Travelers can choose between a QR visa for $36 (card payment) or a regular visa on arrival for $30 in cash — both options remain available.

Even with a foreign bank card available, one traveler prefers paying $30 cash for a regular visa on arrival over the $36 QR visa, citing the unpredictability of Egyptian systems.
