Traveling from South Africa to Kenya

South African citizens planning to visit Kenya should check the latest entry requirements before departure. Kenya replaced its former eVisa system with the Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) framework in January 2024.

Travelers should verify whether they qualify for an exemption or are required to obtain a Kenya eTA based on their nationality and travel circumstances. When required, the application can generally be completed online before departure.

For passport, document legalization, long-term immigration, or other consular matters, travelers should contact the Kenya High Commission in South Africa directly.

As immigration rules and consular information may change, always check the latest requirements through official Kenyan government sources before traveling.
