Kenya still fails in visa openness despite Ruto reforms, AU says

Despite recent reforms by President William Ruto’s administration, including electronic travel authorisation, Kenya remains one of the least accessible countries to fellow Africans, the African Union has disclosed.

According to the 2024 Africa Visa Openness Index (Avoi), Kenya ranks 46th out of 54 countries — scoring just 0.113 on a scale in which 1 represents full visa openness.
