Entry requirements

  • As of 2024/2025, Kenya transitioned to an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) system, but Sudanese nationals are specifically listed as exempt from the eTA requirement for short stays.
  • The exemption applies for tourism, visiting family/friends, or business for up to 60 days.
  • Travelers must still present a valid passport and meet health requirements (such as yellow fever vaccination if applicable).

Stay

Maximum stay of 60 days under the exemption.

Passport

Passport must be valid for at least six months from the date of arrival.

Health — Yellow fever

A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required if arriving from or having transited through a country with risk of yellow fever transmission (including Sudan itself).

While exempt from eTA, it is always recommended to verify the current status with the Kenyan Embassy, as policies regarding Sudan can be subject to change due to regional developments.
