Starting from 2nd July 2015, the government of
Kenya will introduce electronic visa application. Tourists wishing to visit
Kenya need to apply as follows:

that incomplete applications will berejected and you will lose your
processing fees
You will need a scan of the main page of your
passport (with your name, date of birth and other information)
You will need to re-upload your passport photo
Pay using your Visa card, MasterCard or other
debit card
Await your approval which will be sent to you
by email. This could take up to 7days so ensure that you plan in advance
Once you have received the email advising that
your visa is approved, log back into your ecitizen account and download your
visa.
Print a copy of your visa to present to the
immigration officer at your point of entry into Kenya
Some things to remember:
The visa process takes up to one week and must
be completed in advance
You will need a scan of your passport and
passport photo
Approval and issuance of the visa does not
guarantee entry into Kenya
Any form of business or employment on a
visitor’s visa is an offence
As the introduction of this visa process was
only announced a few days ago, there is a two month grace period whereby
visas can still be purchased on arrival. This grace period expires on 31
August 2015.
Effective 01 September 2015, you will be denied
boarding of your flight to Kenya or denied entry to Kenya if you do not have
your printed copy of your e-visa with you.
The new service goes live on 2nd July 2015.
