Zambian Ambassador to Ethiopia Albert Muchanga has noted with concern the increasing number of Zambians being denied entry in Ethiopia due to lack of VISAs. Mr. Muchanga has since appealed to all Zambians travelling to Ethiopia to ensure that they obtain VISA documentation before departing Zambia.
He said Zambians travelling on official business to Ethiopia can submit required documents to the Zambian Embassy in Addis Ababa a week prior to departure while those on personal trips can obtain VISAs from the Ethiopian Embassy in Harare, Zimbabwe. The Ambassador advised Zambians travelling to Ethiopia to strictly adhere to the Ethiopian Immigration rules to avoid being deported.
