I entered Kenya Wednesday and asked the Immigration officer if the extension procedure changed. The extension remains unchanged. You can go through the eFNS site and apply for a free extension. Even...

Is it on a website or through your contact? EVISA was formerly free on the eCitizen site but initially automatically approved for 60 days, as I've tried to explain multiple times. If you go through a...

I submitted an eTA on Sunday afternoon and it was in my email box approved Tuesday morning. The website was simpler and the total cost was less than $35. It took my credit card without issue. Just...

Keep trying the eVISA site. Try at an off hour. Sometimes their wimpy servers are inadequate for high volume. Good luck, sincerely.

Perhaps fly to TZ and get a visa on arrival and cross a land...

I opened the link and tried to fill out my info. The website states it in the rotating header.

You apply for the eVISA before 27 December. You apply for the eTA 27 December onward.

There's supposed to be a mobile app.

I found a couple sthat list the Kenyan Immigration Locations. However, I know of two offices not on the list. Let's complete a list:

Nairobi - 9th Floor?

Kisumu.

Eldoret - 2nd floor. The...

This happens to me all the time. I often have to apply from eCitizens in middle of the night if I'm applying from Kenya. EFNS seems easier to access online when I apply for the extension.

I crossed a land border today. The eCitizen site has been online since the Aug 3.

I should also explain VoA at land borders. Kenya immigration officer will refer you to a cyber shop where a...

You could always have gotten a VoA if you cross via land borders. That goes for Uganda too. Even though you can use a eVISA at the land borders, you only needed eVISA if you flew in. Since the site...

There have been violent protests starting Monday, March 20. I understand they will be held every Monday and Thursday. Nairobi, Eldoret, Kisumu and Kakamega are the most violent so far.

On December 8, I asked Kenya Immigration a question that comes up often between long stay travelers in Kenya:

Q: "After my Kenya 3 month tourist visa and 1-3 month extension expire, do I need to...

I'm not disputing this info but this is my testimony:

The Kenya Airway website gives the GlobalHaven QR link to fill out with COVID vaccination info. I brought my vaccine books and the QR when I...

I stay mostly around in western Kenya where only the banks exchange money at poor rates. Normally I convert mPESA to cash but since I have USD, I exchange USD to KSh when I pass through civilization....

As others have said, get a Safaricom SIM card and have Safaricom activate mPESA. Use Wise, WorlRemit, etc.

If you can find a grocery store or business to exchange, it's the best rates. I used a...

The Kenyan health line at NBO rechecked my health requirements when I arrived. You will be unable to board the plane but Kenya still checks after the flight and before immigration.

I'll let you...

It is by far harder getting rid of them. I move around and keep moving.

No matter where in Africa, I meet them doing normal activities and during sunlight hours. Eventually it becomes overwhelming...

During my first trip to an African country (Ghana), I was advised that whatever African country I may be in, to stay away during elections. Don't be lulled into the impression the election will...

In addition to the Health Ministry QR (https://ears.health.go.ke/airline_registration/), instead of a PCR test, you can prove you are fully vaccinated. You can't use your shot records. (for now).

Since I had to return to the US and my flight was 11:35 PM, I needed a negative PCR test the same day.

I used Nairobi West Hospital (open 24-7); I registered online the day before.

While...

Although a PCR test is no longer required (QR is still required) for fully vaccinated inbound travelers, I was wondering where everyone is getting their PCR tests prior to leaving Kenya. USA requires...

When you sleep, either power off your phone or put it in airplane mode. Someone can unlock your phone by calling your number then answering your phone. Once they do that, they're in.

If you remove any sticker from your passport, the passport is invalid. You must get a new one. Some of the advice you get on this site is absolutely foolhearty.

No problem here. Noone else is gonna help her get her groove on. The difference is that she is likely using her "old man's" money who she left at home.
