Investor Permits

Permit advisory for foreign nationals investing in Kenyan enterprises.

What Makes This Hard

Investment and Permit Filed Out of Step

When entity registration and permit application aren't sequenced together, investors can end up waiting on one to catch up with the other.

Investment Proof Insufficient

What counts as adequate proof of investment isn't always intuitive, and underprepared documentation is a common cause of delay.

Overview

Investor permits authorize foreign nationals to reside in Kenya in connection with a qualifying investment. We manage the permit application alongside your broader investment and entity structuring.

Who It's For

  • Foreign investors requiring a permit tied to their Kenyan investment.
  • Investment principals relocating to actively manage a Kenyan enterprise.
