Tourist eVisa

Tourist eVisa, four things to prepare.

These sit on top of the four core documents above.

1

Single entry or East Africa Tourist Visa

Single-entry eVisa costs $51 and covers Kenya only. The East Africa Tourist Visa costs $100 and covers Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda — the right choice if your trip crosses into more than one of these countries.

2

Flight itinerary

Include a copy if you have a confirmed booking. Not required if your travel dates are still being finalized.

3

Traveling with a minor under 18?

Bring the child's birth certificate, copies of both parents' passports or driver's licenses, and a notarized parental consent letter if one parent is not traveling.

4

Applying by mail?

Include a completed Service Order Form so Sameday Passport & Visa can reach you quickly if anything needs clarifying before submission.

Service Order Form

Business eVisa

Business eVisa, what changes.

Nothing in the document set. The choice that matters is single entry or the East Africa Tourist Visa.

What the business eVisa needs

  • Same documents as tourist. Kenya uses the same document set for both tourist and business eVisa applications. No separate business letter or invitation letter is required.
  • Single entry or East Africa Tourist Visa. Single-entry costs $51. East Africa Tourist Visa costs $100 and covers Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda. Choose based on your itinerary.
  • Flight itinerary. Include a copy if you have a confirmed booking. Not required if travel dates are still being finalized.
  • Applying by mail? Include a completed Service Order Form so Sameday Passport & Visa can contact you quickly if anything needs clarifying before submission.

Service Order Form

Where Kenya eVisa applications go wrong

  • Applying yourself first. An application already filed at evisa.go.ke cannot be corrected by Sameday Passport & Visa. Bring it in before you submit.
  • The wrong eVisa type. A single-entry eVisa does not cover a side trip to Uganda or Rwanda — the East Africa Tourist Visa does.
  • An ID address that does not match. Bring a recent major utility bill if your photo ID address differs from your application.
  • Checked before submission. Passport, photo, ID and the completed form are reviewed together at the counter.

Good to know

Common questions about Kenya eVisa applications

Do the Kenya tourist and business eVisas require different documents?
No. The Kenya eVisa uses the same document set for both tourist and business applications. You need a valid passport, a completed online application at evisa.go.ke, a copy of your photo ID with a matching address, and a 2x2 visa photo. No separate business letter or invitation letter is required. We complete the online application for you and verify the full package before anything is submitted.
Do I need to complete the Kenya eVisa application online myself?
No. The Kenya eVisa is submitted at evisa.go.ke, but we complete the entire online application for you. Bring your passport, photo ID, visa photo, and any additional documents to our office and we handle the online submission. Do not submit the form on your own before we have reviewed it — errors are a common reason for delays or rejection.
What is the difference between the Kenya single-entry eVisa and the East Africa Tourist Visa?
The Kenya single-entry eVisa costs $51 and allows one entry into Kenya only. The East Africa Tourist Visa costs $100 and covers Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda in a single visa — useful if your trip includes more than one of these countries. Call us at (310) 402-1619 and we will confirm which option fits your itinerary before you apply.
Do I need a flight itinerary or hotel booking to apply for a Kenya eVisa?
Neither is strictly required. If you have a confirmed flight booking or hotel reservation, include copies — they can support your application. If your travel dates or accommodation are not yet finalized, you can still proceed. We review your full package at our counter and confirm everything is in order before submission.
Can I apply for a Kenya eVisa by mail from outside Los Angeles?
Yes. Mail us your passport, a copy of your photo ID, your visa photo, and a completed Service Order Form. We complete the online application at evisa.go.ke on your behalf, handle the submission, and return your passport via FedEx once approved. Call us at (310) 402-1619 before mailing to confirm the current turnaround time and exact package required.
Passport not ready for the trip?

A Kenya eVisa is issued against the passport you hold now. If yours expires within six months of departure or has no blank page, Sameday Passport & Visa can renew it first and then file the eVisa against the new book.
