The government of Kenya announced a new digital nomad visa for eligible foreign nationals to work remotely from Kenya.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The government has not yet confirmed the validity period or the cost of the work permit or potential pathways to long-term residency or citizenship. As BAL previously reported, the Kenyan government recently announced all foreign nationals may enter Kenya visa-free for tourism or business for stays of up to 90 days. As part of the visa-free policy, government officials also announced a new electronic travel authorization (eTA) system that replaced the existing eVisa system for short-term travel.
BAL Analysis: The Kenyan government is offering a new digital nomad visa along with visa-free entry to create a more streamlined entry system, facilitate greater business travel and increase tourism. BAL will continue to monitor developments and will provide more information on the new digital nomad visa once the government publishes further details in the official gazette.
