Work Visa from Nigeria to Egypt

Work Visa from Nigeria to Egypt Description

Unlike countries with a separate work visa category, foreigners who intend to work in Egypt must simply apply for a work permit.
The application process may be rigorous and time-consuming.
The first step of applying for an Egyptian work permit is obtaining the application form from the nearest Ministry of Manpower and Training Office.
Because work permit applications require the participation of the foreigner's employer, it is not possible to obtain a work permit without a solid job offer from an employer in Egypt.
Your employer will need to submit a memorandum explaining why it is necessary to hire a foreigner rather than a qualified Egyptian citizen.
A copy of test showing you are free of HIV/AIDs is also needed.
Another essential item is an approval from Egypt’s State Security Service showing that you are not a threat to national security or public safety.
This can be obtained through a division at the Ministry of Manpower and Training office.
Finally, you will need to pay a registration fee of about $60 to complete the process.

An original international Passport that is valid till the next six months with at least two blank pages for necessary stamps.
One visa application form duly filled and signed by the applicant.
