Editor's note

Kenya moved to a mandatory electronic travel authorisation (eTA) for almost all visitors, replacing the older visa-on-arrival system β€” apply online before you fly rather than expecting to pay at the airport. Approval is usually quick, but leave a few days' buffer in case of follow-up questions.
