埃及(Egypt) 前往 南非(South Africa) 签证要求

Egyptian ordinary passport holders need a visa to visit South Africa for tourism. Egypt is on South Africa's eVisa eligible-country list, so most travelers can apply online through the Department of Home Affairs e-Visa portal; otherwise a visitor visa is obtained at the South African embassy/VFS in Cairo. South Africa is not in the Schengen area, so Schengen and ETIAS rules do not apply. A visa is required for Egyptian (EG) ordinary passport holders traveling to South Africa (ZA) for tourism or a short visit. South Africa does not grant Egyptians visa-free entry and does not offer visa on arrival. However, Egypt is one of the countries included in South Africa's e-Visa program operated by the Department of Home Affairs (DHA) via the ePermit portal, allowing eligible tourists to apply online for a visitor's visa rather than visiting an embassy in person. The visitor's visa is typically issued for short stays of up to 90 days. Applicants must show a passport valid for at least 30 days beyond the intended stay (with at least two blank pages), proof of onward/return travel, proof of sufficient funds, and accommodation details. The South African government visa fee is modest (around ZAR 425 / roughly USD 36), but applicants using the embassy/VFS channel in Cairo also pay a VFS Global service fee. South Africa is NOT part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and the EU ETIAS scheme are not relevant to this route. Travelers should apply well ahead of travel and rely only on the official DHA portal and the South African Embassy in Cairo, as third-party agent sites may overstate fees and processing claims.
