What is a Kenya EVisa?
A Kenya eVisa is an electronic visa that allows you to travel to Kenya for various purposes, including tourism, business, and visiting family. It’s a convenient alternative to the traditional paper visa and can be obtained entirely online, saving you time and hassle.
Two kinds of Kenya eVisa:
- Single Entry Visa: Valid for one entry into Kenya and a stay of up to 90 days (three (3) months) from the date of issue. This is ideal for short tourist trips or business visits.
- Multiple Entry Visa: Valid for multiple entries into Kenya within the specified validity period (one (1) year). This is suitable for frequent travelers or those planning extended stays.
The Citizenship and Immigration Act, 2011 establishes the legal framework for visa issuance in Kenya, including eVisas. It outlines the different types of visas offered, the general requirements for obtaining a visa, and the authority responsible for issuing them.

How we’re different
We’ll plant a tree for every product sold. Our vision is to support communities and the environment by offering services to the public. For every product sold, we’ll plant a tree. We do this with local help to support local economies and communities. This is in opposition to mass tourism, which sucks the soul out of destinations. This is also in opposition to greedy international corporations, whose only concern is shareholder profit.
We do this with the help of One Tree Planted. A portion of every purchase goes to a reforestation or urban forestry project.
We hope that, by succeeding, we can have a future that we hope for, not dread.
What You’ll Get
When you order the Kenya eVisa processing service from us, you will receive the following:
Kenya eVisa

Tree planting certificate
For every order, we will plant a tree. The certificate thanks you for your contribution and gives you details on which reforestation project you supported.
