Entering Kenya twice with Single Journey Visa?

by Alexander de Haan
(Amsterdam, Netherlands)

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a single journey visa for Kenya and also a single journey visa for Tanzania. The question I have is as follows.

I travel from Amsterdam to Nairobi on 12 March. On 21 March I travel from Nairobi to Zanzibar. On 26 March I travel back from Zanzibar to Nairobi and on 27 March from Nairobi to Amsterdam. You might see the possible problem here: technically I am entering Kenya twice. Once on 12 March from Amsterdam and the second time on 26 March from Zanzibar.

Is my single journey Visa for Kenya valid or do I need to purchase an additional Visa? (hopefully not) :)

Thanks and best regards,
Alex

Visa

Dear Alex,

If you have a normal tourist visa valid for 3 months and not a transit visa you should be allowed to enter Kenya again without buying another visa.

I have travelled to Tanzania often from Kenya and always returned with the same visa. It is valid for three months.

In case you want to be sure call the Kenyan Embassy in The Hague but like I said I have done it myself numerous times so it should be ok.

Kind regards
Irene O.
