Also my husband will not get his passport renewed until close to our departure date for Singapore on 5/2. Would you be able to get us a visa for travel to Egypt by the 20/2? Or if we have to get a visa ourselves while we are in Singapore, will we have enough time to do that?
Also, we would like to take in a 10 day North,Central, and South Vietnam tour, preferably starting on 8/2. Could we also get a Vietnam visa in time for this tour?
