🇪🇬Egypt🇧🇸The BahamasEG-BS Egypt to The Bahamas visa requirements
Egyptian ordinary passport holders need a visa to enter The Bahamas. The Bahamas is a designated visa-required country for Egypt, but the visa can be obtained online as an eVisa before travel. Egypt is on The Bahamas' list of "Designated Countries" whose nationals must obtain a visa before arrival, as confirmed by the Bahamas Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There is no visa-on-arrival or visa-free channel for Egyptian ordinary passport holders. The practical route is the Bahamas Electronic Entry Visa (eVisa / Visitor Visa) applied for through the official MOFA online portal at mofa.gov.bs. A single-entry visitor visa costs US$160 and permits one visit within a three-month window; multiple-entry visas (3-month, 6-month, or 1-year validity) cost US$250 each. Standard processing is 7-10 business days. Applicants must submit a valid passport (6+ months validity), a digital photo, a return/onward ticket, accommodation details, proof of financial means, and supporting documents. On arrival, length of stay is at the discretion of the immigration officer ("leave to land"); stays beyond 90 days require attention to visa conditions. Note: the commonly cited "US/UK/Canada/Schengen visa exemption" published by the Bahamas MOFA explicitly applies to INDIAN nationals only - it does not extend to Egyptian passport holders, who must obtain a Bahamas visa regardless of holding other countries' visas.
