Visas and consular matters

According to the MEA brief of April 2026, cultural and consular matters were among the issues reviewed at the 4th Round of Foreign Office Consultations in Addis Ababa on 3 October 2022. The brief gives no details of those discussions and contains no information on visas or e-visas for travel between India and Ethiopia.

Travellers, students and business visitors should check current visa requirements, fees and procedures with the Embassy of Ethiopia in New Delhi, or with the consulate in Mumbai, before making plans.

Students

The brief records an Educational Exchange Programme (2007) between India and Ethiopia, but gives no details of scholarships, admissions or student visas. Ethiopian students considering study in India, and Indian students considering study in Ethiopia, should confirm current arrangements through the Embassy and official Indian channels.

Air services

India and Ethiopia signed an Air Services Agreement in 1967. The brief records that 4 MoUs were signed subsequently, in 1972, 1993, 2004 and 2008, and civil aviation is among the fields in which the two sides agreed in October 2022 to work to expand engagement. The brief does not give current routes, airlines or flight frequencies, and travellers should check these with airlines.

Indian nationals in Ethiopia

Indian nationals in Ethiopia can approach the Embassy of India in Addis Ababa. During his visit to Addis Ababa on 22 June 2022, the External Affairs Minister inaugurated the Embassy's Chancery Building and Residential Complex and addressed the Indian community.

As of April 2026, the brief estimates the Indian Diaspora in Ethiopia at about 2500. It states that the Indian community has a sizeable presence in the educational sector of Ethiopia, with about 150 Indian faculties in various Ethiopian universities and higher educational institutions, and that several Ethiopian companies engage Indian workers.

The multi-party Indian Parliamentary delegation that visited Ethiopia in 2025 also interacted with members of the media, academia, civil society, think tanks and the Indian diaspora in Ethiopia.

Honorary consuls

Ethiopia's office in Chennai is an honorary consulate. Honorary consuls have limited powers and do not offer the full range of services of an embassy or career consulate. Visa, document and other requirements should always be confirmed with the Embassy of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia in New Delhi.
