FAQ - General Visa Information:
Yes, most tourist and business visas can be extended in Ethiopia. The process must be started before your current visa expires. It is not possible to extend an expired visa without paying a fine.
The Main Department for Immigration and Nationality Affairs is located in Addis Ababa, near the Bole International Airport. You must apply for the extension in person.
You will need to bring your passport, your current visa, and possibly a letter explaining your reason for extension, along with passport-sized photos and the extension fee.
In most cases, the extension is processed within 1-3 business days. You may need to leave your passport at the immigration office during this time.
