Kenyan Diaspora Holding Foreign Passports Exempt from Applying for Kenyan Visas

Embassy

The Kenyan Embassy in Berlin has finally issued an official statement on the exemption of Kenyans holding foreign passports from applying for visas when visiting Kenya.

Below is the statement issued by the Kenyan Embassy in Berlin on 13th September 2013:

The Constitution confers automatic recognition of Kenyans holding citizenship of other countries as being citizens of Kenya by birth so long as they are able to prove parentage by providing authentic Kenya Government documents.

Hence, such persons are exempted from the visa requirements, irrespective of the passports held.

In this regard, the Kenya Embassy wishes to advice the Kenyan Diaspora in Germany who fall in this category and have the necessary documents of proof not to transfer any monies to the Kenya Embassy account for purposes of visa processing.
