How, when traveling to Egypt from Israel, to avoid the "Sinai" stamp in the passport when crossing the Israeli-Egyptian border in Eilat, so that you can travel around the country? Is it possible to issue a visa in a Russian passport (having Russian and Israeli citizenship).

You can apply for a visa in a Russian passport by paying a visa fee of $ 25. At the same time, the "Sinai stamp" will not be delivered, and you will have the opportunity to travel throughout the country.

Ask a question Indeed, one of the drawbacks of having a "Sinai stamp" is that tourists can not travel outside the Sinai peninsula. The term of stay in Egypt is limited to 15 days. Violators of the visa regime are awaited by severe penalties, as well as punishment up to three days' imprisonment.
In your case, issuing a visa to a Russian passport will allow you to travel outside the South Sinai.
