Is immigration.gov.et legit and safe?

Our automated security review found no threat indicators on immigration.gov.et, so it appears legitimate. All 92 antivirus engines we queried report it clean, Even so, always double-check the exact address in your browser, because phishing emails routinely spoof real, trusted domains like this one.

Is immigration.gov.et safe to use?

immigration.gov.et passed our automated checks with a trust score of 80/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged it at the time of the last scan, and its signals line up with an established, legitimate site. Treat any unexpected login prompt or payment request on it with the same caution you would anywhere.

Could a legitimate site like immigration.gov.et still be used in a scam?

Yes — and this is worth understanding. Even trustworthy domains get spoofed in phishing emails (a fake message that only looks like it's from immigration.gov.et), and legitimate sites are occasionally compromised on specific pages. A clean verdict means the site itself checks out today; it does not mean every email or link claiming to be from immigration.gov.et is genuine. Always reach the site by typing the address yourself rather than clicking links in unexpected messages.

Has immigration.gov.et been flagged by antivirus engines?

No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report immigration.gov.et as clean. That's a good sign, though antivirus coverage is only one of the many signals we weigh, and brand-new scam sites can appear clean before vendors catch up.

Is immigration.gov.et on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No — immigration.gov.et is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.

Does immigration.gov.et have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes — immigration.gov.et presents a valid TLSv1.2 certificate issued by Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36, valid for another 180 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".

Where is immigration.gov.et hosted?

immigration.gov.et resolves to an IP operated by To__BRAS_DHCP_AD_10800E in ET (Fixed Line ISP). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.

How often is the immigration.gov.et report updated?

This report is a record of the scan run on July 14, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about immigration.gov.et has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.

Confidence

The domain immigration.gov.et belongs to the Ethiopian Immigration and Citizenship Service, an autonomous government agency established by Proclamation No. 1263/2021. Our antivirus network returned zero detections and the hosting IP shows no abuse history. The site uses a valid Sectigo certificate and follows the official .gov.et naming pattern used by Ethiopian government services. Independent evidence confirms the domain is the legitimate channel for passport and visa services. No scam reports or complaints appear in our research. The visual capture failed due to a server error, but this does not affect the strong legitimacy signals from registration and infrastructure data.

The full analysis

Page Content

The domain serves as the official portal for the Ethiopian Immigration and Citizenship Service. Citizens and foreign nationals use it for passport applications, visa requests, and immigration tracking. The Ethiopian government explicitly warns against unofficial copycat sites that mimic this service.

Infrastructure

The site resolves to IP 196.189.51.18 with an abuse score of zero and no reported incidents. A valid Sectigo DV certificate protects the connection and expires in 180 days. No redirects occur and the connection stays within the official domain.

Domain History

The domain is registered to the Ethiopian Immigration and Citizenship Service, an agency reorganized in 2021 from the former Immigration, Nationality and Vital Events Agency. Official Ethiopian government services use the .gov.et TLD exclusively.

Web Reputation

Our research found no scam reports, complaints, or negative mentions. The domain is explicitly identified as the legitimate government channel. No independent review aggregators returned ratings because government sites rarely appear on commercial trust platforms.

What this means for you

Users can safely access immigration services through this domain. Always verify the .gov.et ending and avoid third-party sites that claim to offer the same services for a fee.

AI Recommendation

Use this domain directly for Ethiopian immigration services. Avoid any third-party sites claiming to offer the same services.

The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

What to do

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on immigration.gov.et and not a lookalike like i-mmigration.gov.et.com or an IDN homoglyph.
Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.
