Kenya is set to keep the fees for a tourist visa at US$25 per person

Kenya's Tourism Minister Najib Balala told the media back in September 2010 that the country will revert to charging visitors US$50 (about Sh4,000) for visas up from the reduced rate of US$25 beginning January 2011. Now, according to eturbonews.com, the Kenyan government is changing plans again and is set to keep the fees for a tourist visa at US$25 per person, and will only review this by July 2011.
Other East African countries except for Rwanda, where notably many nationalities are exempt from paying for a visa,  continue to charge US$50 for tourist visa.
