If you are an Indian national planning a trip to Egypt, you may already know that applying for an Egypt eVisa through the official website visa2egypt.gov.eg is the first step. However, many travelers are surprised when they see an error message during the application:

“You will not be allowed to enter the country without the guarantee of an authorized tourist agent in Egypt. It must be present at the airport upon your arrival.”

This requirement means that Indian travelers cannot enter Egypt alone. To successfully pass immigration at Sphinx International Airport, you need a letter of guarantee from an Egyptian authorized travel agency. Without it, you may be denied boarding or deported upon arrival.

Why Is a Letter of Guarantee Required at Sphinx International Airport?

The Egyptian government enforces this rule to ensure Indian travelers have an authorized local travel agency supporting their arrival. The letter of guarantee must be presented at immigration, and an agent must meet you at the airport before you proceed.

This step is mandatory for Indian nationals and cannot be bypassed. It protects both the traveler and the country’s entry system.

How Indian Travelers Can Avoid Problems at Immigration

If you do not arrange this in advance, you risk facing delays, deportation, or being denied entry. The safest way is to work with a trusted travel agency that:

  • Provides the letter of guarantee

  • Meets you at the airport before immigration

  • Assists with your arrival procedures

  • Offers ongoing travel and transportation support in Egypt

At Rimo Tours, we handle the entire process smoothly, ensuring you are never left alone at the airport.
