“Service free 600 ETB” I read this statement under renewal of passport. Is it a typing error or I don’t have to pay for service?
No, it is not typing error.
I registered online. I was given the delivery date. On the day of collection from the post office, I was told to go to number 4 but did not receive the required support timely. I had to go again to room number 4 very early in the morning and I was told I need to come after 2 weeks after trying to explain myself as this is the standard. Even though I tried your email there is no response. The phone does not work. The online web system is not working. The delivery date given is not respected. The number of people at the post office with out the crowd management, is one of the fertile grounds for spreading COVID19. It would have been good if there are issues in the applications that it is identified early and communicated to the individual to avoid wastage of precious resources of this country. I am waiting for my passport now for more than 3 months. This delay has a lot of implications but the sad thing is that nobody cares. Whoever is responsible ,If you happen to see this comment, please address this issues.

Sometimes things may not come perfectly as we wish because online service is infant for Ethiopia. There are many challenges for the customers and officers to manage things easily. So, please keep the appointment you have.

They may check her citizenship since sometimes people prepare fake ID and Birth certificate. So, it is easy to show the ID of parents for their confirmation.

Please contact Immigration Office by email or call
I sent email they said we’ll contact u a few minutes later but not still now….8133 no one is pick up
Seriously ,this organization is corrupt! I was registered online almost before two months, and when I came to the post office, they told me to go to Immigration office, Room-4,then again the officer there, told me to come after 15 days, but, after I have told him as my earlier application’s delivered was to regional branch, he told me to reapply again. Why is that? why cam I pay again and again, even if it is not my problem?
It sucks anyway, the personnel out there have no respect to customers, have no knowledge about the procedures what they have to follow, randomly give order to customers to come after some days without following the rule of first come first serve.
OMG, what happen to the smooth and elegant services which was given by the old Ethiopia Immigration Services office?
RIP to INVEA!!
I got a message says “Dear#########,
Your request has been received and created with the ticket ID ###### and subject “No sms or email message after pay”
Someone from our customer service team will review it and respond shortly.
Regards,
INVEA (Immigration Nationality and Vital Events Agency) support desk”
But no one has responded me. What shall I do please?
Please send an email or call to them
