For those trying to get visas for Europe from Cairo, you better be planning your holiday somewhere in August or September, cos getting the visa is as herculean a task as deciding where to go and organising the trip. Er, let me correct that, it'll probably be easier to organise the holiday!!
Getting an appointment for the visa itself has a month long or more wait for most of the embassies, so plan in advance.. Since I am applying for Spain, this is the list of documents that the embassy asks for. Hope its of some help!
a/ passport
b/ application form original + 2 copies
c/ 2 photo size 3.5 x 4.5 cm with white background
d/ original and photocopy of current and old passport
e/ Printout of flight tickets
f/ hotel reservation
g/ original bank statement statement for last 6 months and 2 copies
h/ letter from your employer stating the date of hiring and current salary
i/ international health insurance
j/ Visa fees 520 le per head
all docs original and photocopy and in a file in the same sequence...
docs only in English or Spannish

Living in Egypt
About Me
- Manisha
- Cairo, Egypt
- I was a banker till 2 years ago! Now I am a traveller, explorer, a wife, and most importantly, a research associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations. The last job is one of the most demanding in the humanities,(any mother care to disagree?) and I often work 14 hours a day,(24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most run-of-the-mill careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money!

Hola Manisha, en estos momentos necesitaria contactar con alguien de Egypto. Tengo algunas preguntes sobre temas de trabajo que me gustaria preguntarte despues de ver tu experienca por ese pais. Si lees esto te agradeceria que me respondieras en indexia30@hotmail.com para contactar contigo. Yo tambien soy madre como tu, me fascina Egypto i aunque no soy bankera... me dedico a la contabilidad de museos.
Gràcies
MOni
