What is a Kenya Tourist Visa?
A Kenya Tourist Visa (or the applicable Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) under current Kenyan immigration regulations) allows Indian passport holders to travel to Kenya for tourism, sightseeing, leisure, holidays, and recreational purposes.
A tourist visa is intended solely for short-term visits and does not permit employment, business activities, or long-term residence in Kenya.
