๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฉ Does an Indonesian need a visa for Kenya ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ช?

ETA required

No visa, but an ETA. Indonesian passport holders do not need a visa for Kenya, but must get an electronic travel authorisation (ETA) online before travelling.

Checked against Wikipedia's list of visa requirements for Indonesian citizens on 2026-10-04. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Kenya or its official government website before you travel.

What this means for your trip

An ETA (electronic travel authorisation) is not a visa: it is an online pre-screening that airlines check before boarding.

It is normally approved within minutes to a few days; apply before you book non-refundable travel.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Plugs and voltage
