Thank you!
I guess my question about this would be, whether he will require a separate work permit to have gainful employment or can he be employed under my work permit (which the company will apply for)?
In England, your spouse can legally work on a spousal visa which is an extension of your work permit, but only for the duration of your work permit. Do you know any more about this?
Thanks again.

Katy,
Yes, he needs a separate Business Visa and work permit in order to be able to work and earn in Ethiopia.
Sincerely,
Suave
