Kenya Visa Policy

Kenya has an updated visa policy backed by immigration laws that expect every visitor to hold a valid visa unless they are from any of the visa-exempt countries on the exempt list.

This list contains countries whose citizens can visit without visas for up to 90 days unless in special cases. Visitors who qualify for visa waiver can only visit for non economic purposes.

Kenya Electronic Visa (E Visa)

The electronic visa of Kenya is an online travel document issued to visitors from selected countries who may wish to visit Kenya for a short time. This visa doesn't require the applicant's presence at the Kenyan embassy; they can apply for it using their smartphone as long as they have an internet connection. E Visa applications take a few minutes to complete and the processing takes only a few days lasting not more than 72 hours. If your application is successful, the visa will be forwarded to your email address from where you can print a copy.

E Visa visitors are not allowed to stay in Kenya for long nor can they seek employment in the country. It is solely for short term visitors from eligible countries.

Key Information About The Kenyan Online Visa

The East African Visa: The East African visa is only recognized by the Kenyan, Uganda, and Rwandan governments. You can't enter any other African country that is not part of the visa agreement. Also, the total number of days you are allowed to stay combined if you choose to visit two or all three countries is 90 days. The days start counting from the first day you set your foot in Kenya before traveling to the others. Lastly, the passport you travel with must remain valid throughout your trip and must be the same passport used for the application.

Application Fee: There is an application fee attached to the process which must be paid with a credit or debit card. This fee is not a guarantee that the visa will be issued if you don't meet the conditions.

Non Convertible Visa: You should know that this visa is non convertible once it is approved. For instance, if you apply for a single entry visa and it is approved, you can't change it to a multiple entry visa; the only way to change your visa is to apply for a new one. When you do that the old visa becomes invalid.

Extension: An e visa can be extended under two conditions. Firstly, the applicant must apply for it before their current visa expires. Secondly, they must submit their application to the nearest immigration office in the city they reside explaining why they need the extension. A few will also be charged for the application and the officer in charge will decide on the number of days or weeks to extend their stay.

Not for Work Or Study: The Kenyan e visa is not for work or study but for tourism, business and transit. Attempting to use it for any other purpose will be a violation. Violators will be fined and deported. Worse offenders will receive a travel ban for a period of time depending on the severity of their offense.
