Abstract: As is well known, the Lefschetz theorems for the 'etale fundamental group of SGA1 do not hold. We fill a small gap in the literature showing they do for tame coverings. Let $X$ be a regular projective variety over a field $k$, and let $DhookrightarrowX$ be a strict normal crossings divisor. Then, if $Y$ is an ample regular hyperplane intersecting $D$ transversally, the restriction functor from tame 'etale coverings of $XsetminusD$ to those of $YsetminusDcapY$ is an equivalence if dimension $Xge3$, and fully faithful if dimension $X=2$. The method is dictated by Grothendieck-Murre ("The tame fundamental group of a formal neighbourhood of a divisor with normal crossings on a scheme", Springer LNM 208). The authors showed that one can lift tame coverings from $YsetminusDcapY$ to the complement of $DcapY$ in the formal completion of $X$ along $Y$. One has then to further lift to $XsetminusD$.
