Inquiry for Ethiopian Seafarers Urgent Shengen Visa application

The maritime industry operates on a strict, global schedule where timing is everything. For Ethiopian seafarers, current visa delays aren't just an administrative hurdle—they are a direct barrier to employment. We are calling for the EU Delegation to recognize our status as essential workers and implement a fast-track system that reflects the urgency of global shipping. Supporting this petition is a step toward fair labor access for Ethiopian maritime professionals.T

Having this kind of issue for seafarers is not good for future maritime industry.

Good commitment
