EVISA Facilitation by KATO


About the Service

All inbound travelers to Kenya who need to have a Visa are required to obtain it before boarding their flight to Kenya. Visa on Arrival is NOT available for entry to Kenya.

All travelers are required to apply for their Evisa online and the official website is https://evisa.go.ke.

Should one find the application process too challenging on the Official Website or simply do not wish to complete it yourself, KATO is in a position to facilitate the application on your behalf. This can either be a completely new EVISA application or helping you conclude an application you had already commenced but encountered difficulties with e.g. payment.

Please note the following Terms and Conditions for using the Service:

  1. Use of this Facilitation service does not guarantee the issuance of a Visa. The final decision rests with Kenyan immigration authorities and using the KATO Facilitation system does not in any way influence the outcome.
  2. The Visa application fees are NON-REFUNDABLE whether a visa is issued or not.
  3. In order to lodge the application on your behalf, you consent to provide KATO with the information required by the EVISA website. We do not retain any personal data after the Visa has been approved and issued.
  4. To ensure timely processing and delivery, the following timelines will apply for EVISA applications:
    – Single Visa Applications: 48-72 Hours (Saturdays and Sundays excluded).
    – Large Group Applications: 72-96 Hours (Saturdays and Sundays excluded).

Please note that the timelines stated above commence after KATO has confirmed receipt of all the required documentation from applicants. There is currently NO Expedited Visa Application service – all applications lodged for facilitation will follow normal timelines.

By proceeding to make your application below, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to the above terms of service.
