Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify determinants of late antennal care at first visit in health facilities of eastern Tigray, Northern Ethiopia 2018. Result : Women with unplanned pregnancy were 4 times more likely attending late (AOR= 4.03, 95%, CI: 1.56-5.67). Participants who attended antenatal care after 16 weeks for previous pregnancies were 3.9 times attending late (AOR= 3.9, 95% CI: 1.98-7.68). Participants who did not supported by partner for antenatal visit were1.3 more likely attending late (AOR= 1.29,95%, CI: 1.05-4.67). Similarly women who recognized their pregnancy at three months or late were 4.7 attending late ( AOR= 4.7,95%,CI: 2.49-9.04). Women who received adequate time by health care providers during antenatal care follow up were 53% less likely attending late. As a conclusion, unplanned pregnancy, partner support, late recognizing of pregnancy; gravidity and provided adequate time for antenatal care were the determinants of late attending of antenatal care. There for responsible bodies should give focuses on utilization of family planning, increasing awareness of pregnancy symptoms and health provisional provide adequate time during visits.
