Can I get a visa through the UAE Embassy? The Embassy does not directly grant visas. You can get a visa through the UAE-based airlines, do it yourself online or get in touch with a local agent.
If you are using Emirates, you can visit the Emirates World Store in Nairobi.
We, however, recommend that you use a local agent or if you are your airline if its one of the UAE based airlines.
