If I fly to Sharm without a tour, on a charter flight, can I buy a visa for $25?
Good afternoon, please tell me if I fly to Sharm on my own, i.e. without a tour, on a charter flight, is it possible to buy a visa for $25, I mean, do you need a voucher and a return ticket?
Or tell me how to do it in general, I’m going to fly for a period of about a month, I’ll rent housing on the spot, but how to get a visa at the airport and not earn problems)

When buying a visa, the voucher was never looked at. The border guards also only look at the passport and migration card.

A visa to Egypt is issued at the airport upon arrival for 30 days for $25. To the Sinai Peninsula - a visa for 15 days is free. These are Sharm el-Sheikh, Dahab, Taba, Nuweiba, Ras Sidr, Sant-Katrin, Et-Tour.
You need a passport valid for 6 months and a travel voucher.
You can book a hotel in Egypt yourself and show the reservation instead of a tourist voucher at the airport.
The visa allows you to stay in Egypt for 29 days. If you are delayed, you can only fly from Cairo or Sharm el-Sheikh on a regular (not charter) flight, paying a fine of $17.

Mariamar maybe you'd better open a visa in advance. Already online.

Miriamar here is a link to the official website of the Embassy of the Republic of Belarus in Egypt on a visa in the section Information for Belarusian tourists planning to visit Egypt
http://egypt.mfa.gov.by/ru/consular_issues/3/
"As a general rule, citizens of the Republic of Belarus must open a visa to visit Egypt in advance by contacting the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt in Russia (Moscow)."

Mariamar, call a couple of Belarusian travel agencies and consult. Where do you plan to buy charter tickets? I contacted several Belarusian travel agencies, they answered me everywhere that they don’t sell tickets for a charter separately, only a full tour package.

Mariamar, it's not about the voucher itself, but about the migration card, which you need to fill out and show to the border guard so that he can put a free stamp "Sinai only" or a visa for $ 25. So, this migratory card can be taken ONLY from tour guides who are waiting for you at the airport upon arrival, and they issue these cards only according to their lists - who paid for the tour and has a voucher. And nowhere else you will take this card (only if you fly through Stamul - they give it out on the plane). no matter how tour operators convince you that they are dezhat on racks and they are given by border guards. Do not give and do not lie. Call http://tursales.by/ Inna or Dmitry and ask to look for a cheap tour for 2-3 nights. sometimes they are for 130-150 dollars. buy it and calmly get a migratory card and stay in Sharm for a month by purchasing a visa for $26.

LindaLinda, I plan to buy a ticket for a charter through Ukraine, prices are from 60 to 150 dollars one way, if necessary, I can send you a link. And I think Nellyk meant to buy just a tour, without a flight, i.e. only accommodation, transfer, guide, etc.

When buying a tourist visa, you do not present a voucher and a return ticket. A passport and 25 dollars are sufficient grounds for obtaining a tour visa to Egypt.

For 60 and even 150 dollars charters from Ukraine to Sharm do not exist on free sale.
Unless, in February, some operator will not be able to fill the board, and then a couple of tickets may appear not at the usual price of 309-320 dollars, but for 180-200 dollars.
But they immediately go their separate ways.

NellyK, some airlines, such as Windrose, distribute cards directly on board. That is, if you are already flying with them, you will be with a card.
Not once in recent years have representatives of the operator at the airport asked us for a voucher when issuing cards in the arrivals hall.
Already after leaving the airport, near the bus stop, at the kiosks of the host operators, before boarding the buses, they ask for a voucher. Or rather, not even a voucher, but the names and the name of the hotel.
At the airport, 5 years ago, they don't ask for vouchers. They just give a card with a disgruntled face, realizing that you will not buy a visa from them for 27, like many scammers, but buy it at the box office for 25.

L_ena, the question was about a tourist from Belarus, unfortunately, I "hit" in November, even a visa for $ 25 in the window of Anka and a passed passport did not save me - the border guard said "voucher"? ... and turned me to the tourist guides. I will not tell you how I got the coveted migration card from the guides. but there is no need to reassure a tourist from Belarus, he may not be as lucky as me. sometimes Belarusian tourists without a voucher are simply! Deployed" for departure, if there is no money to buy a return ticket, they are taken to the police. I meant ter for 2-3 nights, which includes a round-trip flight. e, it is inexpensive, but you have to catch by dates, then you just don't fly back (warn the hotel guide right away).

On this tour, you can easily get a migratory card and stay in Sharm for a month, buying a visa for $ 25, or longer, extending your visa at the visa center in Nabq. You can rent an apartment in Sharm in the FB group "Sale and rent apartments in Sh-Sh", or you can just walk around Hadaba, there are ads right in the villas, with phone numbers who rent housing. or follow the compound. we rented in Santerra (this is the best room) - 1 bedroom, 1 living room, fully equipped washing machine-microwave-kettle, dishes, etc. - 200 dollars per month (not per person but for the whole apartment) we also have a garden with access to the pool ... but there are compounds and cheaper. welcome to Sharm!

And you can fly back by charter - if you are in Egypt for less than 29 days (if you are late for 2 weeks, you will pay a fine, I don’t know the amount). if you will be more - the return flight is possible only by regular flights. I am considering the option through Istanbul (there are tickets from $ 160) - Moscow, or Ermnai (I have an open Schengen visa).

L_ena, I want to say about your phrase "Never in recent years have representatives of the operator at the airport asked us for a voucher when issuing cards in the arrivals hall."
In 2017, my husband and I were in Sharm 6 times, we returned a week ago. In the arrival hall there is a huge queue of tourists for cards, and they are issued only upon presentation of a voucher. In 2016 there was a similar picture. Voucher - card. I didn't see any other option.

NellyK agrees with you that the visa policy of Egypt for citizens of Belarus differs from the visa requirements for citizens of Ukraine and Russia
But for charter tickets from $60 to $150, this is not realistic, writes Mariamar "to buy a ticket for a charter through Ukraine, prices from $60 to $150 one way"
I want to 100% support L_ena, she absolutely correctly wrote the real prices for charter tickets, THEN sell tickets for their charters with great difficulty without booking a tour

Mariamar if your independent trip to Sharm is connected with romantic tourism, and you are now solving all the questions and problems that you have with this trip, abandon your plans and buy an inexpensive standard last-minute tour for 2 weeks, in case of unforeseen circumstances you always have there will be a place in the hotel where you can return, eat and an already paid transfer to the airport and a return ticket and insurance.
A standard tour with a departure from Kyiv to a 3* hotel in Sharm for 2 weeks for 1 person starts at a cost of $400

I'm worried about the girl, but is the guy going to fuck her? We had a case in our city a few years ago, a wealthy woman, 40 years old, went to Turkey, fell in love there, etc. to amazement and a complete loss of financial vigilance ... As a result, she flew to Boryspil with a naked f ..., her husband still went to pick her up, divorced. Girls --- be careful with horsemen, they know how to sing songs about love.

Can. I do this ALWAYS. And all my friends are the same.
After getting off the plane, you will be taken to the terminal. There, all the tourists line up to hand over their vouchers. In the same queue, approach the airport managers, tell them "no voucher, ticket only", they give you immigration cards, and you go to fill them out yourself.
Visa stamps are sold in the windows of the exchange office, for their purchase you need only money, no passports and completed cards.
If you arrive in Sinai, you can not buy a visa at all, in which case your stay should not exceed 15 days.
The message about the need to apply for a visa in advance in your country or the mandatory purchase of a tour at a travel agency is complete nonsense
