The rest of the trip for a Hong Kong passport, from the arrival form to customs and travelling with children: Egypt entry requirements.
The details for a Hong Kong passport.
Correction (11 Oct 2026): Hong Kong is NOT on Egypt's 78-nationality e-Visa list (the list has 'China' and 'China/Taiwan' only); the earlier note that it is listed as 'China/Hong Kong' was wrong, so the e-Visa is not a fallback. Hong Kong Immigration Department lists Egypt among the countries granting HKSAR passport holders 'visa-free access or visa-on-arrival', but its duration entry could not be read. Passport Index (Feb 2026) shows visa-free 90 days. Bring USD cash in case a VOA is asked for.
How long it must be valid.
At least 6 months beyond the date of arrival.
