Irish Visas - Choose your right visa
All Kenyans traveling to Ireland, whether short-term or long-term, must apply for an Irish visa. Ireland is not in the Schengen Area, so a Schengen visa does not grant entry. Likewise, Ireland is separate from the UK, and a UK visa does not allow entry. Click the link below for visa details.
