沙特阿拉伯(Saudi Arabia) 前往 肯尼亚(Kenya) 签证要求

Saudi Arabia ordinary passport holders need a Kenya Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) before traveling. Kenya abolished traditional visas in January 2024, replacing them with the eTA. The 2025 visa-free expansion covers African and select Caribbean nations only, so Saudi nationals still must apply online. As of 30 May 2026, a Saudi Arabia ordinary passport holder traveling to Kenya for tourism or a short visit must obtain an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) before departure. Kenya removed conventional tourist visas on 1 January 2024 and introduced a mandatory online eTA for all non-exempt foreign visitors. In July 2025 Kenya exempted nearly all African nations and several Caribbean countries from the eTA, but Saudi Arabia is not on the exemption list, so the eTA requirement remains in force for Saudi citizens. The eTA is applied for online at the official portal etakenya.go.ke, costs USD 30 (plus a small processing/service charge on some payment channels, bringing the effective total to roughly USD 32.50), is valid for a single entry, permits a stay of up to 90 days, and is generally approved within about three days. Visa-on-arrival was discontinued in 2021, so travelers should not expect to obtain authorization at the airport. Applicants need a passport valid for at least six months beyond intended stay, a recent passport photo, proof of onward/return travel, and accommodation details. Travelers continuing immediately to certain East African Community states (Burundi, DR Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda) may re-enter Kenya on the same valid eTA.
