DV-2027 Registration Temporarily Paused

The U.S. Department of State has announced changes to the Diversity Visa (DV) Program entry process for DV-2027.

The registration start date will be announced as soon as possible. Selected applicants will still be able to apply for their visas between October 1, 2026 and September 30, 2027.

We're preparing our secure, Ethiopia-friendly application assistance (with local payments via Chapa/Telebirr) and will be ready the moment registrations open.

DV-2026 Visa Issuance Update:

The U.S. Department of State has announced that the previous pause on Diversity Visa issuance is no longer in effect following a federal court order issued August 28, 2026. DV-2026 applicants may continue processing their cases, subject to normal eligibility requirements and visa availability. All DV-2026 visas must be issued by September 30, 2026.
