No. SureshotVisa does NOT provide or process Egypt work visas or work permits. This page is informational only.
It is issued only after the Egyptian competent authorities grant a work permit, which is arranged by your Egyptian employer. The visa step then follows at the Embassy of Egypt.
The embassy/VFS fee table lists ₹8,000 for single entry and ₹10,500 for multiple entry (inclusive of the ₹500 processing fee), but these apply only once a work permit is approved — and SureshotVisa does not process this category.
