Visa-Free Countries For Kenyan Passport Holders; a visa is an official document handed to a passport bearer that allows him or her to legally visit a foreign country. However, in the world, different passports rank differently which means there are some more powerful passports than others.
The ranking of the passport is normally done through index ranking by the Henley passport index, an authorized ranking organization. One of the key factors that determine the ranking of a passport is the number of countries the passport holder can access without a visa or acquire it on arrival or even use eVisa.
Currently, the Kenyan passport is ranked top ten of the most powerful passports in Africa, and the top 100 globally. Countries like Seychelles and Mauritius are among the countries topping Africa with the most powerful passports.
As a Kenyan passport holder, you can visit several countries without acquiring a visa. However, in these countries, there are countries that you can visit visa-free, and in others, you can get a visa on arrival.
Before we dive deep into listing these countries, despite them being visa-free it doesn’t mean you can stay as long as you want. Every country has its own duration that you can be allowed to stay without a visa.
With all said and done let’s now take a look at the visa-free countries for Kenyan Passport holders.
