Watch out for
The Royal Thai Embassy or Consulate-General may require documents beyond the standard list, so check the mission website for Egypt before applying. [12]
If your nationality differs from the country or territory that issued your travel document, a tourist visa may still be required even where an exemption would otherwise apply. [11]
