President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday announced plans to waive visa fees for children under the age of 16 in yet another move aimed at wooing foreign visitors into the country.

Kenya currently charges Sh10,200 ($100) for a multiple entry visa and Sh5,100 for single entry tourist visa. The fees apply to all visitors, including children under 16.
