Information about the eVisa for Kenya
The eVisa for Kenya is a mandatory electronic travel authorization for foreigners with a passport of any of the eligible countries. It was introduced by the Government of Kenya to reduce unnecessary time at the immigration offices and make it easier to cross the border.
Depending on your need, you can apply either for a Single Entry Visa, with a validity of 90 consecutive days from your arrival or the Transit visa, only valid for 72 hours.
Requirements for the Kenya eVisa
Before applying, prepare the following information:
- A passport valid for at least 6 months from the date of your arrival
- An up-to-date photo
- An email address
- A valid debit or credit card
- A proof of the trip: Flight tickets, Hotel Booking, Trip Itinerary (Only for Transit Visa)
Be aware that getting an eVisa does not guarantee you entry to the country. The immigration officers will review your request upon your arrival with the right to deny you entering Kenya without any reason.
