The Ethiopian Immigration and Nationality Affairs in collaboration with Ethiopian Airlines, on June 12, announced the commencement of e-visa service for international visitors to Ethiopia,.
Tadesse said the e-visa system had been blocked by the government for some strategic reason overtime, making it difficult for many tourists to explore the nation’s tourism.
He said the e-visa could not be used because of nonconformity with debit card, stressing that the platform is now open to all African countries to apply for Ethiopian visa online and get it on arrival at its airports.
According to him, though the Ethiopian e-visa is now working with credit card, they are still working to have another solution for payment soon.
“Now, our e-Visa which was blocked because of immigration issues have resumed, thanks to our Prime Minister and other African leaders.
“This visa can be applied online and get your visa on the spot at our airports and it is for all African countries and this is a big boost for all our travel agencies.
