What it means in practice
90 days is about three months. If you arrive on 1 November 2026, your last legal day is 29 January 2027, because the arrival day is day one. Use the stay calculator for your own dates.
How Egypt counts your stay: The permitted stay is shown on your visa.

How to avoid overstaying
- Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
- Plan to leave a day or two early. With 90 days, book your exit before the last legal day so a cancelled flight doesn't push you over.
- Extensions. Our data has no extension route for Egypt; plan to leave on time or arrange a different visa in advance.
- Penalties. Our data does not list the overstay penalty for Egypt. Ask the immigration authority before you risk it: fines, deportation and entry bans are common elsewhere.
