Kenya eEvisa: From 3rd world to 4th world No confirmation mails of received application. 5 days later still not debited my account, don’t know if payment even went actually through. Can’t contact anyone to find out. Ridiculous questions (eg, Parents names and status) yep…Dad, dead. Well that was a help! You are the Fawlty Towers of immigration departments. In comparison: New Zealand- done in 48 hours.

The visa we'd completed here said not completed at all! We deliberately arranged our visas in advance, specifically for myself, as my new wife's couldn't be done till after our wedding day, 16th July. We reached Kenya after a long day's travelling, only to find there was no record of mine, although I'd already paid for it- really not impressed. I expect a full refund of the money paid.

Incompetence No customer service for visas nobody at the embassy answers the phone !!!! ! My mother lost her holiday ticket due to Kenyan embassy incompetence ! They changes the visa rules and no customer service for the elderly that don’t have computer skills . Go on holiday some other place !

Very happy After reading the reviews, I had little hope in the system but my experience was not too bad. The actual process of applying for the visa is quite difficult. It took me ages to try and get the pictures I needed to send small enough for the system to accept it and the whole process of applying took about an hour. However, I sent it in the afternoon and was approved the next morning. I was due to fly the next day so perhaps that was the reason they approved it so quickly.

POOR SERVICES AND NO XUSTOMER CARE I am frustrated with this system, I applied a month ago and I was asked to pay 11$ to verify the documents submitted, before paying the actual visa fee but since then nothing seems to move and nobody picks up when I call, the numbers on the webpage are all fake. VERY FRUSTRATING AND TIME WASTING
