Do I need a visa to Ethiopia as an American?

Yes—but it's easy. Americans need a visa for Ethiopia, and you can either apply online as an e-Visa or get one on arrival at Addis Ababa Bole Airport. Tourist visas typically cover a 30-to-90-day stay. Remember, your passport still needs solid validity (six months rule), and the e-Visa is usually quicker if you're not feeling like standing in line at the airport.
