What you need

  • Passport: Must be valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay in Ethiopia.
  • Digital photograph: Recent, clear, passport-sized photo with a white or plain background. Specific dimensions are usually 2x2 inches (5x5 cm).
  • Financial proof: While not always explicitly requested during the e-Visa application, it is advisable to carry evidence of sufficient funds for your stay, such as bank statements. No specific amount is mandated for the e-Visa application itself.
  • Accommodation and return ticket: Have details of your accommodation in Ethiopia and a confirmed return or onward ticket ready to present upon arrival.
  • Biometrics: Biometrics are typically collected upon arrival at Bole International Airport (ADD) in Addis Ababa, not during the e-Visa application.
  • Travel health insurance: While not strictly mandatory for the e-Visa application, it is highly recommended to have comprehensive travel medical insurance covering your entire stay in Ethiopia.

Tips for Andorra travelers

  • Apply well in advance: While processing is usually quick, it is best to apply for your e-Visa at least two weeks before your planned departure date to avoid any last-minute stress.
  • Common rejection reasons: Inaccurate information in the application form, insufficient passport validity, or failure to upload a clear, compliant photograph are common reasons for rejection. Ensure all details match your passport exactly.
  • e-Visa vs. Embassy: For short-term tourist and business trips, the e-Visa is the most convenient and recommended route. If you intend to stay longer or for other purposes like study or work, you must contact the Ethiopian Embassy or Consulate responsible for Andorra (likely in a neighboring European country) for guidance on sticker visa applications.
  • Travel Advisories: Always check the latest travel advisories issued by the Andorran Ministry of Foreign Affairs or your country's foreign ministry before traveling to Ethiopia. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ethiopia website (https://www.mfa.gov.et/) may also contain relevant bilateral notes or information.
  • Extension Options: Extensions of stay are generally difficult to obtain and are subject to the discretion of the Ethiopian immigration authorities. It is best to apply for the visa duration that accurately reflects your intended stay. If an extension is absolutely necessary, you would typically need to visit the Main Department for Immigration and Nationality Affairs in Addis Ababa in person before your current visa expires, though success is not guaranteed.
