Requirements for Kenya's Visa

There are 3 types of tourist visas available online for travel to Kenya. You will need the following documentation which can vary depending on your exact choice of visa:

For the tourist eVisa, or the East African visa you will need:

- A copy of your valid passport
- A recent photograph

Kenya eVisas are online visas that can be processed from any electronic device, without the need to go to an embassy. These applications have been simplified in Visagov to assist the user with processing, and reduce the possibility of rejection due to errors on the form.

Once you receive your approved visa, you must print it out and present it together with your passport at the arrival airport in Kenya.
