Kenya eTA for Indian citizens

Kenya eTA for Indians at a glance

Kenya replaced its visa with an Electronic Travel Authorisation. Indians apply online for the eTA - quick approval, no embassy visit - for a stay of up to 90 days.

Good to know: Kenya abolished its visa and visa on arrival - every visitor now needs an eTA approved before boarding. You can re-enter Kenya from Uganda, Tanzania or Rwanda on the same eTA while it is valid.

Diani Beach and Amboseli. Applied a week out, approved on Express overnight, and had the QR code ready before boarding for Mombasa.

Tips for Indians visiting Kenya

  • Carry your approved eTA

    Keep a printout and a copy on your phone - Kenyan immigration scans the eTA and its QR code on arrival.

  • Stay within 90 days

    Kenya enforces overstay penalties, so leave or apply to extend before your permitted stay ends.

  • Any entry point works

    The eTA is valid whether you fly into Nairobi (JKIA) or Mombasa, or arrive by sea at the coast.

  • Plan around safari season

    For the July-October migration peak, apply early and check malaria precautions for parks like the Masai Mara.
