Yes, indeed, you can refuse to buy a visa. If you are not going to go to Cairo, then there will be no problems.

Returned 11.02. The visa was not paid. Take a card from a representative of the host (not listening to about 17 dollars), fill it out, write sinai only on the back and calmly go to the control and smile :)

Friends were intimidated by the fact that such a visa is valid for no more than 7 days. And if they do not have time to leave, they will be fined and stamped with a deportation stamp. Everyone knows that you can not pay 15 dollars. but they pay. Why tease dogs? This is their income. And 15 dollars. not the kind of money to rest against the horn. And besides, you need to know English perfectly in order to defend your rights competently, if the border guards lead you into their office and start intimidating. And it happened.

The Sinai stamp clearly states that you are allowed to stay in Sinai for 15 days!!!
Look in my album
and of course they can intimidate for their income, but you don’t need to be led by their conversations.

It depends on the tour operators. If it had been specified in the contract that those who do not plan to leave Sinai do not buy a visa, then there would be no problems. But apparently they are in cahoots with the border guards.

The meeting party all hopes for the illiteracy of our tourist and an additional payment of 2 dollars and sometimes 5 are asked to fill out a migration card for them.
I always distribute filling samples at the airport - prepared from home.

We don’t pay 2 dollars to the hucksters, but we don’t want to spoil the holiday mood with the unfortunate 15 bucks. We pay and do not bother. And suddenly baked where the thread to go?

So from Sharm, along the Sinai stamp, you can go to Israel without any problems, and on excursions.
EXCURSIONS FOR WHICH WITH SINAI STAMP IS NOT POSSIBLE:
to Cairo, Alexandria, Giza, to the pyramids,
also it will not be possible to go to Ras Mohammed by bus (there is a post on the way), you can take a boat.

Well, this is for experienced people. And if, moreover, a family with children, then, as a rule, people try not to conflict.

What conflicts are you talking about? If they stupidly want to cheat you for $15, and you happily agree, then everyone knows the name of this person.

Well, well, daredevil Oleksii64.
It is easy to advise while sitting at home. Did you cross the Ukrainian-Polish border by car? That's where I would try to shake the rights. And if you count a penny, then there is nothing to go to foreign resorts ... I have 15 dollars for the brotherly Egyptian people. no pity. I drink 10 times more.

But I’m sorry, and if the question is asked, a person doesn’t want to be a sucker. Yes, not everyone drinks that much. The discussion is useless.

So, take the Sinai stamp and don't worry. Write on the card sinai only (on the clean side) and pass quietly. They will dissuade you - I assure you! And they can even call your guide company! But it's your right! We have a visa-free regime. And you do not need a Sinai visa if you are not going anywhere. On the topic of leaving for Israel in Sinai, I promise - there will be no fine.

from 04 to 11 February 2012 we were in Sharm, we went for the first time. I read about the topic with the Sinai stamp on the Internet and double-checked it 20 times from different sources. I was shocked that the tour operators do not know about it, I think they just do not talk about it. So, immediately upon arrival, having registered a voucher, everyone rushed for visas, and my wife and child and I went to passport control. we hand over cards and passports with the words "please sinai stamp" and that's it, without any questions we get a Sinai visa. Everything is written correctly about the excursions, the only thing that bothered me was the excursions to the colored canyon (I recommend it!) At the checkpoint in front of the canyon, they took my passport!!! but on the way back it is returned!!! departure to Israel without problems, on the contrary, when you return to Egypt, you will again receive a Sinai stamp for 15 days !!!
