Kenya Tourist Visa Requirements for Cameroon Citizens

Complete guide on Kenya visa application process, required documents, and processing times for Cameroon passport holders.

About this route

This guide covers the official Kenya entry process for Cameroon passport holders — required documents, the application steps, and where our optional support fits in.

Cameroonian citizens travelling to Kenya for tourism or a short visit can apply for Kenya's Standard eTA directly on the official government portal. The official fee is $30, paid online before travel. An eTA is a pre-travel authorization, not a visa, and does not by itself guarantee entry.

Who this page covers

This page covers Cameroonian ordinary-passport holders travelling to Kenya for tourism or short visits, who are not already in a Kenya eTA-exempt category. It does not cover work or residence purposes. If your passport category falls under an exemption or a different official route, check the eligibility page linked below before applying.

Required documents

  • Valid passport: with at least six months' validity remaining from your travel date, and a blank page for any endorsement.
  • Digital passport photo: a recent passport-style photo meeting the portal's format requirements.
  • Travel details: your intended arrival date and accommodation details in Kenya.
  • Payment method: to pay the official eTA fee on the government portal.

Applying directly on the official portal

⏱️ Official application steps

1. Create your eTA account

Register on the official Kenya eTA portal.

2. Complete the application form

Enter your passport and travel details exactly as they appear on your passport.

3. Upload your documents

Upload your passport bio-page scan and passport-style photo.

4. Pay the official fee

Pay the USD 30 government fee directly on the portal.

5. Wait for a decision

The portal states an estimated processing time; this is an officially stated estimate, not a guarantee.

Fees for this application

This is the full cost breakdown for the product sold on this page:

💰 Cameroon → Kenya

Official government fee$30
Optional Kolay Seyahat private support (document check & guidance)$30
Total$60

The $30 official fee is paid to the government when the application is submitted and is not refundable if it is rejected. The $30 private support fee is entirely optional, is paid to Kolay Seyahat rather than the government, and does not affect the outcome of the government's decision.

Critical risks to check before you apply

⚠️ Important Notice

This eTA is for tourism and short visits only — it does not cover work or residence. If your passport category is already listed as eTA-exempt, you should not purchase this product; check the official eligibility page first. The official fee is non-refundable if your application is not approved. An approved eTA is a pre-travel authorization, not a guarantee of entry — Kenyan immigration officers make the final decision at the border.
