cost of import into egypt from sudan
 

I don't have a carnet and have been told its possible to enter egypt without one. There have been some posts bounded about in the past about huge deposits neede to be laid out in order to gain entry and I was just wondering what the current situation is.

I'm a solo motorcycle rider from the UK.

Carnet
 

I wouldn't even want to try to get into Egypt without a Carnet! I guess it would cost massive since it already costs 100$ import fee with a Carnet...

Why not avoid Egypt and catch the ferry from Sudan to Saudi Arabia with a 3 day transit visa through Saudi? Much cheaper and less hassle for sure!

I came through from sudan to egypt in december last year with a carnet. it was full days work with a fixer, a total circus. i had the feeling if you handed over a huge deposit it would be the last you saw of it. I belive the cost is around a coupple of thousand euro. from what travelers said heading north.
Good luck.

According to the saudi arabia embassy motorccles are strictl forbidden to travel overland in SA? No problem if ou have a car though?

Never, ever, evveerrr
 

Never, ever, ever will you make it through. It is a complete shit-fight trying to get in WITH a Carnet. As miles1 said before, this would be the very last you saw of your money and then possibly your bike IF the cash got you in.

Good Luck
