What you need to know about visa extensions
If you need to stay in Ethiopia longer than your eVisa duration allows, you can apply for an extension while you're in the country. Extensions must be requested before your current visa expires.
The extension process is handled by the Main Department for Immigration and Nationality Affairs in Addis Ababa. It's important to start the process well before your visa expiration date.
Go to the Main Department for Immigration and Nationality Affairs in Addis Ababa before your visa expires.
Complete the extension application form and provide required documents.
Immigration authorities will review your request and make a decision.
Extension approval is not guaranteed and is at the discretion of immigration authorities.
Extension fees vary depending on the duration requested. Fees are payable at the immigration office and are separate from your original eVisa fee.
Important: If your extension is denied, you must leave Ethiopia before your current visa expires to avoid overstaying penalties.
Learn about visa validity and stay duration to plan your trip accordingly.
No, eVisa extensions cannot be done online. You must visit the Main Department for Immigration and Nationality Affairs in Addis Ababa in person to apply for an extension.
