Ethiopian Airlines stops visa-on-arrival to Nigerians

Ethiopian Airlines has stopped issuing visa-on-arrival to Nigerians with immediate effect.

The airline made this known via a statement issued on Tuesday, stating that there will be no more visas on arrival for Nigerian citizens.

It further directed travellers to obtain their visa at the Ethiopian embassy in Abuja before travelling.

“Passengers transiting overnight in Addis Ababa are not affected by the ban. E.g. Passengers having a layover in Addis to travel the next morning to Zanzibar, Seychelles, Lusaka, Lilongwe, Harare, Cape Town, etc are not affected by the ban and do not need a transit visa for their trips,” Ethiopian Airlines stated.
