Slovenia: visa decisions in Egypt
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 567 | 521 | 36 | 6.5% | 28.2% |
| 2024 | 464 | 388 | 57 | 12.8% | 24.5% |
| 2025 | 593 | 516 | 72 | 12.2% | 26.6% |
In 2025, Slovenia’s embassy and consulates in Egypt (Cairo) received 593 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 516. 12.2% of applications were refused. In 2024 the rate was much the same, 12.8%. Applications rose by 28% compared with 2024 (464).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 24.2% of the applications lodged in Egypt that year, from 4.4% at the consulates of Romania to 50.9% at those of Sweden. Slovenia’s consulates worldwide refused 21.4%. Slovenia was the 22nd most applied-for Schengen state in Egypt.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Egypt, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
