Frequently asked questions

Do Yemeni citizens need a visa for Kenya?

Yes. Yemeni citizens need a visa for Kenya, and the Kenya ETA can be applied for online.

How much does the Kenya ETA cost for Yemeni citizens?

$40.00. There is no government fee — that is $40.00 for our service.

How long does it take to get the Kenya ETA?

From 2 days. Governments do not guarantee processing times, so apply as early as you can.

How long can Yemeni citizens stay in Kenya?

Up to 90 days.

How long is the Kenya ETA valid for?

You must enter Kenya within 90 days of approval. That window is separate from how long you may stay.

Is the Kenya ETA single or multiple entry?

Single entry — once you leave Kenya it is used up, even if time is left on it.

When should Yemeni citizens apply?

Approval takes from 2 days, and you then have 90 days to enter Kenya. Applying a few weeks before departure leaves room for both.

What Kenya may ask for

Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.

May be required
Electronic travel authorization may be required for transit
Travelers transiting through Kenya without leaving the airport don't need to apply for a travel authorization. Travelers entering Kenya must obtain an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). Travelers can submit the eTA application online. Once the application is approved, travelers receive their eTA confirmation electronically. The Kenya eTA is valid for a single entry, except for in cases where travelers are visiting one of the following EAC Partner States: Burundi, Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, or Uganda immediately after visiting Kenya, do not visit any other countries before returning to Kenya, and their Kenyan eTA is still valid upon return.
- The eTA requirement doesn’t apply to: -Travelers with an East African Tourist Visa issued by Uganda or Rwanda who travel directly between Uganda, Rwanda, and Kenya without visiting any other country.
