Plan around the service estimate without treating it as an approval or border-entry guarantee.
Important route note: VistoRoute is an independent information and application-assistance platform. The current VistoRoute service estimate is 69 hours ; it is not an authorisation or entry guarantee.
Current Kenya route guidance generally refers to three business days or 72 hours, although verification can take longer. VistoRoute currently uses a 69-hour service estimate for its application-assistance flow. This shorter service estimate is not a promise that the Kenyan decision will arrive within 69 hours.
Unclear scans, missing accommodation, inconsistent dates, a purpose-specific document request, an exemption question or additional verification can all affect the time. Apply at least two weeks before travel where possible, even when the estimate appears shorter.
Use the passport that will be used for entry and confirm whether an eTA is required.
Collect readable documents and make sure the purpose evidence matches the selected route.
Enter names, numbers and dates exactly as shown on the passport, then compare all attachments.
Review the current payable amount, submit the application and save the reference number.
Check the passport used for travel, the purpose, exemption status, documents, itinerary and payment amount before submitting.
