I dropped a note to Bernd Seiler the owner of the Charter company "FarRail about permits and movement in Eritrea as he was there last week.

Here is his reply:

"The permits have nothing to to with being a US citizen, it applies to everyone flying in to Asmara.

Yes you need a permit to leave Asmara. This rule has been in place for several years.

For tourists these permits are no problem. Keren in the west and Massawa in the east are the places where you're allowed to go to with these permits.

It costs 10 Dollars per person and they need about one work day to issue it."
