Articles and tips on living in Egypt

Practical articles for Russian speakers in Egypt about visas and residence permits, housing, study, transport and everyday life. Written simply and updated when the rules change.

The Tullab blog about life in Egypt

The Tullab blog gathers practical articles for Russian-speaking students, families and professionals who are moving to Egypt or already live in Cairo, Hurghada and other cities. We write about what has to be sorted out in the first months and then every day: visas and residence permits, renting a flat, studying at Al-Azhar and other universities, work, transport, money, mobile service and everyday life.

The articles are grouped into rubrics: documents and visas, housing, study and work, transport and everyday life. Every article comes out in Russian, English, Kyrgyz and Uzbek, and rules that change often are checked against official sources and updated.

Under every article you will find fresh listings on the topic. If you need a flat or a tutor, want to sell your things or send a parcel, look through the Tullab listings or post your own for free.
