What is an East African Tourist Visa?
The Joint Tourist Visa permits 90 days of travel with multiple entries to Uganda, Kenya, and Rwanda exclusively. Travel to other East African Community (EAC) partner states is not allowed. Travelers can freely move within these countries without additional visas but must adhere to each nation’s laws, avoiding work or business activities. The visa is solely for tourism and prohibits employment. It is non-renewable, whether expired or upon leaving the designated block of countries (Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda).
The East African Tourist Visa is regulated by the immigration laws and policies of each country and by the agreements and protocols of the East African Community (EAC). This regional intergovernmental organization aims to integrate the six partner states of Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, and Uganda.
