Ethiopian Customs Regulation

• Ethiopian Customs regulation dictates that passengers continuing their journey further to Ethiopian domestic destinations via Addis Ababa are required to go through customs and clear their baggage at Addis Ababa. Baggage can be through checked-in up to final destination but passengers are required to collect their bags at the transit point and clear customs before dropping their baggage at domestic check-in counters.

• Any passenger leaving Ethiopia is only permitted to take up to 2 kilograms of coffee products,  unless the Ethiopian Coffee & Tea Authority issues a special authorization.
