I have requested the ETA, how long does it take to process?


More than 90% of the applications submitted are approved within the indicated deadlines.

These estimated processing times start counting from the moment you present your completed application and you have submitted all the required documentation. It is important to ensure that all the information provided is accurate and complete to avoid unnecessary delays. 


In some cases, the applications may take a little longer to process due to additional security checks or high demand at certain times of the year. If your application is taking a little more time than expected, you can check your ETA status through the official immigration Kenya website or contact the customer service for updated information. 


To those who need the ETA urgently, there is an option of requesting expedited processing, although this may involve an additional cost. It is advisable to apply for the ETA in advance of your travel date to avoid last minutes inconveniences. 


In summary, the Kenya ETA processing time is usually fast, but it is always best to be prepared and submit your application as early as possible to make sure that everything is in order for your trip.
