Brief overview
Digital Invea is an iOS app built by Viditure Inc. to help Ethiopians living abroad handle passport and Origin ID applications and renewals. The goal of the app is to remove the need for lengthy paperwork and streamline the entire submission and payment flow so users can complete everything from their phones.
Main capabilities
- Upload supporting documents and complete required fields directly from your device.
- Submit applications for new passports or renew existing ones with minimal steps.
- Make secure payments inside the app without having to visit an office.
- Receive status updates and confirmation once the application is received and processed.
Step-by-step process
- Enter your personal details into the form within the app.
- Attach scans or photos of the required documents.
- Pay the applicable fees using the built-in payment options.
- Submit the application and await confirmation; most users report the process takes about five to ten minutes.
Data safety and processing
All submissions are handled through a protected administrative dashboard maintained at INVIA’s central office. That centralized processing environment is designed to safeguard personal records and documentation while reducing manual handling and exposure.
Why it matters to the diaspora
By digitizing applications, Digital Invea reduces travel, waiting times, and paperwork for Ethiopians abroad. It makes passport and Origin ID services more approachable and faster, allowing users to finish procedures from anywhere with an internet connection.
Alternative app to consider
FamApp — a payment-centered app offering UPI and card payment options — can be an alternate tool for users who want different payment methods or additional spending features.
