Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the 90-day Tourist eVisa for Ethiopia

Why should I choose the 90-day Tourist eVisa instead of the 30-day option?

The 90-day Tourist eVisa is ideal if you plan to explore Ethiopia thoroughly, visit multiple regions, or stay with friends and family for an extended period. It eliminates the need to worry about visa expiration during your trip and provides more flexibility in your travel plans.

Is the application process different for the 90-day Tourist eVisa?

The application process is the same as for the 30-day eVisa. However, you may be asked to provide additional documentation to support your extended stay, such as a more detailed itinerary or proof of sufficient funds.

What if I need to stay longer than 90 days?

If you need to stay in Ethiopia for more than 90 days, you must exit the country before your visa expires and apply for a new visa. Alternatively, you may need to consider other visa options, such as a residence permit, which would require application through the Ethiopian Immigration authorities.

Can I work remotely while on a 90-day Tourist eVisa?

The Tourist eVisa does not permit employment in Ethiopia. While you may be able to conduct some personal remote work for an employer outside Ethiopia, you should not represent yourself as working in Ethiopia or for an Ethiopian company.

Can I apply for a 90-day Tourist eVisa if I've previously visited Ethiopia?
