Visa & Entry

Ethiopian passport holders can get a visa on arrival at Kenneth Kaunda International Airport in Lusaka and Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport in Livingstone. The single-entry tourist visa costs USD 50 and allows a 90-day stay. You can also apply for an eVisa through the Zambia Immigration eVisa portal (evisa.zambiaimmigration.gov.zm) before departure. The eVisa costs the same and takes 3 to 5 business days.

Your passport must have at least 6 months of validity and 2 blank pages. Bring proof of accommodation, a return or onward ticket, and evidence of sufficient funds. Payment for visa on arrival is in USD cash. If visiting Victoria Falls from both the Zambia and Zimbabwe sides, the KAZA UniVisa costs USD 50 and covers both countries for 30 days.

Yellow fever vaccination is required for travelers arriving from Ethiopia. Carry your ICVP. Zambia enforces this at all ports of entry. Ethiopian Airlines flies direct from Addis Ababa to Lusaka, about 5 hours. Zambia uses the Zambian kwacha (ZMW). ATMs in Lusaka and Livingstone accept international cards.
