An Ethiopian eVisa generally allows a single entry into Ethiopia. Once you leave the country, you cannot use the same eVisa to re-enter. If you plan to return, you will need to apply for a new eVisa.
What You Need to Know
With a valid Ethiopia eVisa, you can stay in the country for up to 30 days from your date of entry. The eVisa must be used within 30 days from the date of issue. Since it is a single-entry visa, travelers who plan to visit neighboring countries (such as Kenya or Djibouti) and return to Ethiopia should plan accordingly and consider applying for another visa if needed.
Our Recommendation
Carefully review your travel itinerary. If your plans include leaving Ethiopia and coming back, make sure you apply for a new eVisa ahead of time to avoid delays or complications at the border.
A Quick Tip
Keep in mind that your entry is always subject to the final decision of Ethiopian immigration authorities. Carry a printed copy of your eVisa approval and supporting travel documents, as you may be asked to show them when entering the country.
