Visa Details
Kenya introduced the electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) in 2024, replacing the previous visa system for short-term visitors. For long-term business presence, foreign investors and company directors can apply for a Class G work permit (for specific employment) or Class C permit (for prescribed professions). Work permits are issued by the Department of Immigration Services and typically take 4โ8 weeks. Kenya does not have a formal golden visa or digital nomad visa, though the government has discussed introducing investor-friendly residency programmes.
