The Attorney General of Ethiopia (Amharic: የኢትዮጵያ ጠቅላይ ዐቃቢ ህግ) is a law official that ensures law and prosecutes criminal investigation under Council of Ministers Proclamation No.943/2016.

The office performs two major functions; giving legal advice to the government and prosecuting crimes.

The Ethiopian constitution does not mention the Attorney General is fully independent, instead it is accountable for political institution.

[4] Former EPRDF veteran Berhanu Tsegaye had served as the second Attorney General until 2020.

He was succeeded by Adanech Abebe, who served as acting attorney general from 12 March to 18 August.
