Do I need a visa for Syria from Kenya?
Electronic authorization required
Travelling to Syria on a Kenya passport, you need an e-visa, applied for online before you travel.
| Requirement | e-Visa |
|---|---|
| Permitted stay once admitted | Not specified |
The e-visa has to be sorted out online before the trip, not once you arrive. Because the entry system has changed significantly since early 2025, it is worth reconfirming the process close to your travel date rather than relying on anything written before then.
Damascus International Airport (DAM) handles the bulk of arrivals, with Aleppo (ALP) as a secondary option. Treat any online guide, including this one, as a starting point rather than the final word given how recently things have changed.
