United Kingdom passport holders can obtain a visa on arrival at major Ethiopia ports of entry without applying in advance. The fee is paid at the airport visa counter and the stamp is issued the same day, subject to standard documentation.

Check eligible entry points
Visa-on-arrival is normally limited to international airports and a few land borders in Ethiopia; verify your specific entry point qualifies before booking flights.
Bring the required cash and documents
Most VoA counters accept USD or EUR cash only and reject cards for the visa fee. Carry exact small denominations, a passport photo and your printed return itinerary.
Apply at the visa counter on arrival
Hand in your passport, photo, completed arrival card and fee at the dedicated visa-on-arrival desk before joining the regular immigration queue. Processing is normally 15β30 minutes.
