President William Ruto administration’s ‘visa-free’ entry policy requiring foreigners to register online three days ahead of travel has made Kenya among the most difficult countries to visit on the continent in 2024, a new report suggests.

Kenya has slid 17 places in ease of travel ranking to number 46 out of 54 countries in Africa, according to the Africa Visa Openness Report 2024 which measures how easy it is for Africans to enter one of the countries on the continent.
