It's mostly for trade and tourism if it's easy to get to somewhere you're most likely to tell that to your entourage. That will make a growth in tourism and can attract investors

Hello,
Kenya is transitioning to a visa-free status for most African visitors, allowing a two-month stay for travelers from exempt countries. This policy aims to boost tourism, enhance regional integration, and foster cultural exchange1. Economically, it is expected to increase tourism revenue and promote intra-African trade. Culturally, it will strengthen Pan-African ties and encourage mutual understanding1. However, security concerns and potential strain on resources must be addressed. Thank you for considering this policy change! NY DMV


Best Regards,
Peter Philip

Kenya has implemented a visa-free policy for nearly all African visitors, allowing stays of up to two months without prior authorization, except for nationals of Somalia and Libya due to security concerns. This initiative aims to enhance tourism, foster regional integration, and stimulate economic growth by facilitating easier travel across the continent. The policy is expected to boost cultural exchange and economic activity, aligning with Kenya's broader goals of becoming a hub for trade and tourism in Africa.
