Kenya has lifted visa restrictions for all citizens of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) effective September 1, 2023, according to the Immigration and Citizen Services Director General Evelyn Cheluget.
Cheluget said the move was in line with the directive by President William Ruto on July 29, 2023 in Mombasa County, where he announced that Kenya would remove DRC from Category 2 to Category 1 of visa regulations.
