Ans: There is no need to apply for a visa prior to your Maldives tour. Every nationality including the Ethiopians is issued a 30-days Maldives visa on arrival provided you have a passport with validity not less than 6 months. Maldives visa fee for Ethiopians is INR 3350 (or MVR 750) which is to be paid if you want to extend the visa period for a total duration of 90 days. Otherwise, a tourist visa is issued absolutely free of charge.
