Hi,

I am a 27 year old female with am Egyptian Father & an English mother.

I hope to get an Egyptian Passport, as i plan to visit Egypt for some time.

I have been to the Embassy with my father,but it seems i need some extra documents.

We took with us,

My british passport.
My fathers Egyptian & british passport.
My fathers I.D card.
My parents marriage certificate.
My british birth certificate.

I do not have an Egyptian birth certificate or national i.d card.

I will be in Cairo next week for a short visit. What is the best way for me to get Egyptian passport?

Thankyou & i hope To hear from you soon. Inshallah.

Hi Amister

To get an egyptian passport u need to have firstly an egyptian national  ID cos it’s a basic document for issuing the passport & to have an egyptian national  ID u need too get an egyptian birth certificate ……. Its kind of complicated process for u if u r not familiar with the egyptian routine .

By the way …… did ur parents was married in or outside Egypt ? … & … where did u was born … in or outside Egypt ? ….cos it will save u some steps if they married here & u was born here too .


I recommend if u try to get ur egyptian passport u should have an egyptian friend or relative with u at this round of procedures .


If u have more questions … just inbox me & u r welcome

Wish u luck
