Aevamo’s reading
Council of Ministers Regulation No. 114/2004 on Immigration creates the tourist visa class (Article 18), sets the visa application route (Article 23), and delegates visa validity periods and port-of-entry issuance to Authority directives (Articles 21 and 25). It is the instrument under which the Immigration and Citizenship Service's e-visa portal publishes the nationality lists and durations; Regulation 587/2026 confirms the short-stay details remain delegated to an unpublished Service directive.
The portal's 'Tourist Visa On Arrival' page states that Ethiopia has officially launched visa-on-arrival service for tourists from the countries in the listed array; every issuer on this row appears in that array (each rendered as a table row labelled 'Visa on Arrival'), so they may obtain a tourist visa on arrival at the border without arranging anything in advance.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
