The information below concerns travelers who are nationals of the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, and Canada traveling to Ethiopia for a tourism stay. As entry rules may change, we recommend verifying this information with the official authorities before your departure.

Passport

To enter Ethiopia, your passport must be valid for a minimum of six months after the date of entry into the country and must include at least two blank pages for immigration stamps.
The document must be in good condition (no damaged, torn, or altered pages).

Visa

Nationals of the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and Canada must have a visa to enter Ethiopia. There is no visa exemption for tourism stays.

Two main options are available:

• the electronic visa (e-Visa), to be requested online before departure via the official Ethiopian immigration services portal, for entry by air, in particular at Addis Ababa International Airport;

• the visa on arrival, available at certain official entry points, particularly at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport, subject to changes in access conditions.

The tourist visa is generally granted for stays up to 30 days, with the possibility of extension on site through Ethiopian immigration services.

The authorities may request:

• an outbound travel ticket (return flight or onward connection),

• proof of sufficient financial resources for the duration of the stay,

• an accommodation reservation for the duration of the stay.

Health and Vaccinations

No vaccination is required to enter Ethiopia, except in the case of arrival from a country at risk of yellow fever, in which case proof of yellow fever vaccination (international vaccination certificate) is required upon entry.

The following vaccinations are nonetheless strongly recommended before departure:

• yellow fever (depending on areas visited),

• hepatitis A and B,

• typhoid,

• meningitis,

• update of routine vaccinations (tetanus, poliomyelitis, measles).

Malaria is present in many regions of Ethiopia, particularly outside Addis Ababa. Antimalarial prophylaxis is strongly advised. Consult your doctor or a travel medicine center before departure.

Travel with Children

Minors must hold their own valid passport and an individual visa covering the duration of the stay.

In some European countries, when a minor travels without one of their parents, an exit authorization from the territory may be required according to the regulations of the country of residence.

Other Nationalities

Entry conditions may vary depending on nationality. Travelers concerned should inquire with the embassy or consulate of Ethiopia in their country of residence.

To participate in our trips, it is strongly recommended to have evacuation assistance and foreign medical expenses coverage.
