Recorded session
Understanding Kenya's Investor Immigration Framework
An on-demand session walking through the investor immigration landscape.
Written for: Investors, founders and advisors evaluating a Kenyan market entry.
What this covers
A session for investors on how Kenya's immigration framework actually applies to capital entering the country — delivered by our advisory team and built around the questions investors raise most often, rather than a walk through the statute.
The session covers how investor-linked immigration routes work in practice, the relationship between the entity you register and the permits your team can hold, what evidence of investment is typically expected, and where investors most often get sequencing wrong between incorporation, permits and arrival.
It closes with the questions raised on the day, which tend to be the most useful part: what happens when an investment structure changes, how founders and senior hires are treated differently, and how to plan for family members who will relocate. Where an answer depends on tax or sector licensing, the session is explicit that specialist advice is required rather than offering a view.

Prepared by the CKN Civis Africa advisory team. This resource is general information about Kenyan immigration practice, not legal advice on your specific circumstances — for that, book a consultation.
Available on request. Rather than an instant download, an advisor prepares and sends the current version — immigration rules change often enough that a stale document does more harm than none.
