Kenya Tourist Visa Requirements for India Citizens

Indian citizens travelling to Kenya for tourism or a short visit can apply for Kenya's Standard eTA (Electronic Travel Authorization) 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 it is not the final word on whether you'll be admitted at the border.

Who this page covers

This page covers Indian 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, this specific eTA product is not the correct one for you, check the eligibility page linked below first.

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.
