What the Ethiopia visa rules mean for Macau travellers
Macau passport holders need an eVisa to enter Ethiopia. You apply online, upload a passport scan and a photo, pay the fee and receive the visa by email. Apply at least one to two weeks before your trip and print the approval — some airlines and border officers ask to see it on paper.
The main option is the Tourist eVisa — 30 days, which costs 62 USD.
