Our guide to the Guinea visa from Kenya
Holders of a passport from Kenya must have an e-Visa to enter Guinea; it is applied for online and must be obtained before departure. The official fee observed is 100 USD for an authorised stay of up to 90 days.
For Kenyans, the Guinean e-Visa may be checked by the airline at check-in in Kenya, even before the entry checkpoint in Guinea. With an observed processing time of 45 days, the online application should be submitted well before the flight date.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. A Kenyan passport does not give access to Guinea without authorisation: an e-Visa, requested online and approved before the trip, is required. It allows you to stay in the country for up to 90 days. That figure is neither the processing time nor the validity period of the e-Visa, which should be checked on the document itself.

How to apply
Submit your application on the official portal of the Guinean authorities; if you are not sure of its address, ask the Guinean embassy responsible for Kenya.

Where do you apply for a visa for Guinea from Kenya?
An e-visa for Guinea is filed entirely online: there is no counter to visit and no file to hand in. The only address that matters is the official portal.
- The application, the supporting documents and the payment all go through the official portal, from any country.
- Lookalike sites copy the portal’s name and layout, then resell the same application with a margin. Check the domain before you type in a passport number.
- The authorisation arrives by email. Keep a printed copy, some airlines ask for it at boarding.
Using an online service
You never have to use an intermediary. If you would rather have a service fill in and file the application online for you before departure, iVisa does it for a service fee, charged on top of the official fees. It does not change the decision.

You live in Kenya on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Kenya but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Processing times and tips
Allow plenty of time: the observed processing time is 45 days, and a flight bought too early can be hard to change. Check your passport’s validity and the health requirements with the embassy before departure. During your stay, keep the e-Visa with your passport and leave Guinea before the 90 days authorised run out.
Before you fly, and at the border
Passport validity, border checks, minors, overstays: the rules common to every trip are gathered on our travel tips page. Formalities before you leave
Common mistakes
Unofficial websites offering to “facilitate” the application often charge far more than the 100 USD observed, without any guarantee. Other applications fail because of an unreadable file, an unsuitable photo or a mismatch between the form and the passport. Leaving without a printed copy of the e-Visa can also complicate check-in or the entry checkpoint.
