The Immigration Director-General recently hosted a Stakeholder’s Consultative meeting to discuss the E-Visa. A key output of the meeting was the need to phase out the manual visa issuance on arrival and move entirely to the E-Visa only system by 1st January 2021.
Kenya will therefore fully shift to an electronic visa system and effectively ease the process of entering the country even as the coronavirus pandemic continues to affect in-person applications.
Foreigners requiring a visa will be spared the hassle of visiting Kenyan embassies or consulates to apply for the document. The E-visa can be obtained through www.evisa.go.ke.
