Important! You MUST apply for a new passport if your current passport expires before going on this trip to Kenya in June…. a new passport is also required even if it expires within 6 months of going. Kenya will not let you enter the country if your passport expires within 6 months of the trip. For this trip, it means your passport expiration date must be AFTER December 26, 2024. WE ARE BEING TOLD THAT IT CAN TAKE 4-5 MONTHS TO GET YOUR PASSPORT SO START THE PROCESS EARLY!! Whether you are renewing or applying for the first time, allow yourself plenty of time!
Passport and visa fees are your responsibility and are not included in the price of the trip.
VISA: Every person from the United States traveling to Kenya must have a visa to enter. You can apply for a single entry visa online at: http://evisa.go.ke/evisa.html The cost is $51. It takes just a couple of days to get your visa and it is good for 3 months. So for our next trip, do not apply before May 1, 2024.
