1. Ethiopia e-Visa for Norwegian Citizens

Norwegian citizens can apply for an Ethiopian e-Visa or a standard visa online. However, applying for an Ethiopia visa online is significantly faster.

Passengers who use an e-Visa must enter Ethiopia through Addis Ababa Bole International Airport. At the moment, utilizing the e-visa to enter through other ports is not possible.
