Are you sure you need the pre-approval letter? Wouldn't your original passport with your visa work if it is an escort visa? And there is no payment to Ministry to Labour - it is just the visa fee for the issuance of a visit visa. And I ... Read More

Hi, just an update: My company is saying it is impossible to get a visa for her because I'm on a work visa. They are also saying that if they did sponsor her, they would need to pay money to the Ministry of Labor. None of this makes sense. It ... Read More

Okay, so it looks like applying thru the Cairo Mission doesn’t need a preapproval letter, only my passport with the original visa. The marriage paper and going to Egypt is not a problem. I’ll contact them directly and see if I understand ... Read More
