help we are on a cruise going ashore overnight in egypt we hold new zealand passports although wwe live in australia do we need a visa? if so where do we get one ?the cruise lines have only answers for usa citizens whose passports they stamp mon board ship 3 days before landing
I found these sources for you:
Egyptian Consulate: http://www.egy2000.com/indexl.htm
and http://www.egy2000.com/ft40l.html
These state that US citizens, Western Europeans, Australians and New Zealanders can get their entry visas upon arrival in Egypt and do not have to have a "pre-arrival" visa.
You will get one at your port of entry. Show these pages from the consulate to the cruiseline and they should be able to help you appropriately.
