Immigration
Whether it's a single employee or an entire relocating team, immigration matters move on deadlines. We handle work permits, passes, and residency matters for individuals and the businesses that employ them.
An immigration matter is rarely just paperwork — a delayed work permit can hold up a hire, a project, or a relocation on a timeline the employer doesn't control. We handle the range of permits and passes that allow foreign nationals to live and work in Kenya, and we plan applications around the deadlines that actually matter to a business.
For employers bringing in foreign staff, we advise on the permit class that fits the role, prepare the supporting documentation, and manage the application through to a decision. For individuals — investors, entrepreneurs, and their families — we advise on the residency and investor permit routes available to them, and on what compliance looks like once a permit is granted, not only how to obtain it.
Where a client's circumstances raise the question of citizenship or dual citizenship, we advise on that process as well, working through the same practical, deadline-aware approach we bring to shorter-term permits.
