After months trying to find live in maid to help us and no success, a cousin of one of my friend's maid seems to suit what we need, but we need to bring her from Ethiopia. We spent hours on Thursday to obtain a entry permit for her and now we have realized that her passport is expiring next january 12th... It means it hasn't a validity for even three months. Do you know if she still can come and renew it here? Do you know where is the ethiopian consulate (telephone)? Our visa is from AUH, does she have to flight to AUH and not to DXB?

TIA!!

My maid renewed her passport here last year and it took about 2 to 3 days at the Consulate. tel: 043516868 True but I am not sure they will let her leave Ethiopia with the expiry date looming. Also, they may be reluctant to accept her on this end..... not sure.

If you have just obtained the entry permit then she has 60 days to enter the country (then 60 days on the visit visa). It will take her approximately 3 weeks to obtain a new passport in Ethiopia.
