Egypt Visa Application For Nigerians A Disaster by Realgama(op): 7:30pm On Feb 01, 2018
Apparently, this is the first time I have had to wait for 4 weeks for a visa to egypt.

I believe this issue has been there for a while as egypt consular in Nigeria doesn’t really care or give accurate information when it comes to their visa process.

They claim ( egypt embassy in Nigeria - abuja)it takes about 2-3 weeks, however I realized people have been waiting for a response for their visa application for 3 months as a Nigerian.

What makes it worse is the Nigerians working in the embassy. Sometimes they all feel like we owe them something. They force u to sit without giving proper explanations for delayed visa process.

Im just another Nigerian speaking up.

I can relate, samething happened to me last year December at South Africa embassy (Abuja). I was supposed to be at a conference in Jburg (National program), VISA was delayed more than my flight schedule without giving any specific explanation. Eventually they send my passport without rejecting or approving the visa. I missed the flight, and wasted money. A bit sad tho.

I heard Lithuania embassy in SA don't give Nigerians visa and India are also refusing on the high, the best chance is Egypt and if turkey you have to prepare well coz I heard the embassy in turkey is tough compared to Egypt.

South africa will give you, just be patient, if you try Turkey route you will have to authenticate all your documents before going over there because some naija guys usually carry fake documents there

Re: Egypt Visa Application For Nigerians A Disaster by Nobody: 2:16pm On Oct 11, 2018
Wow, this is surprising to hear (RE Egypt Visa). I submitted (personal appearance) in June and got my visa in exactly 10 working days. Someone picked it up for me.

They told me they would send an email/SMS when the visa was ready but they didn't. we just kept going back to check.

Hey... I'm actually not a travel agent, so I can only help with providing advice based on my experience. If you check my blog, I recommended an agent I have used in the past (for a different visa)...
