Ethiopia passport holders require a Schengen visa to travel to EU/Schengen countries — the same 35×45mm ICAO photo format is required for Schengen visa applications. Ethiopia is a major African Union hub with Addis Ababa serving as one of Africa's busiest international air hubs. Religious headwear (e.g. hijab) is permitted under ICAO guidelines provided the full face from chin to forehead is clearly visible. Always verify current requirements on the official INVEA portal before applying.
