Chile visa options for Kenya citizensFee and processing time not published — confirm with the embassy or consulate before you apply.
Kenya citizens need a visa issued in advance by an embassy or consulate of Chile. Start the application several weeks before departure: you will typically need a passport valid for six months with blank pages, a completed application form, passport photos, a travel itinerary, proof of accommodation and of sufficient funds, and sometimes an invitation letter or bank statements.
The main option is the Prior authorisation or visa (Autorización previa o visa).
Whatever your visa status, Chile applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
Chile lets 94 passports in without a visa and requires an embassy visa from 104. Kenya citizens are treated the same way as Algeria, Angola, Benin, Botswana and Burkina Faso. Overall the Kenya passport ranks #123 in the world with 40 visa-free destinations.
Planning a longer trip in Americas? With a Kenya passport you can also visit 10 countries in the region without a visa, including Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Bahamas, Cuba, Dominica, Grenada, Haiti and Jamaica.
In the other direction, Chile citizens need eta to visit Kenya.
