Entry details
Holders of a DR Congo passport do not need a visa when visiting Kenya. The DR Congo passport currently ranks #181 of 199 worldwide, with 43 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Kenya is notably open to foreign passports, admitting 198 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #127 with 70 open destinations. As fellow Africa countries, their rules are frequently tied to regional arrangements. The relationship isn't symmetric: DR Congo travellers get easier access here than Kenya citizens get in return (visa on arrival).
In the opposite direction, Kenya citizens travelling to DR Congo face: visa on arrival.
