How much is the Egypt tourist visa on arrival in Hurghada, and should you bring exact cash?

In Hurghada, the standard visa on arrival is typically USD 25 per person. For a normal short tourist stay, this is the amount to expect rather than USD 30.

It’s best to prepare cash in advance: ideally bring the exact USD 25 or small bills. Change at the airport visa counters may be inconvenient, especially if you pay with a large note.

The visa is usually paid for right after landing at Hurghada Airport, at a bank or visa counter before passport control. Keep the money in your hand luggage, not in checked baggage.

If you are traveling with children, the visa cost is generally counted per arriving passenger when a visa is required for that nationality. It’s worth checking the latest rules for your passport before departure.
