In Kenya, a Retirement Visa is called a “Retirement Permit”
Many people want to retire in Kenya to enjoy the lifestyle and natural attractions. Kenya welcomes these people, but they must understand the requirements and regulations before submitting their applications for Kenyan Visas.

Who can apply for a retirement visa in Kenya?
You can apply for a retirement (Class K) visa in Kenya if you are at least 35 years old. In addition to the application for the Kenyan visa, you must provide a statement that you won’t engage in income-generating activities unless you have the relevant work visa.
Application for the Kenyan Retirement Visa also requires you to prove you have an independent annual income
of at least US$24 000.
The income must be derived from sources outside of Kenya or from a pension or annuity in Kenya.
Finally, your residence must benefit Kenya in some way.
