Revised Charges Fees and Levies on Services offered by State Department for
Immigration and Citizen Services (SDICS)

The above subject refers.

As you are aware on 14th November 2023, the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and
National Administration published in Kenya Gazettee (Various) an intention to
review fees, charges and levies regarding services offered by State Department for
Immigration and Citizen Services (SDICS).

You may recall that the effective date for implementation of these charges was 1st
January 2024. However, the said charges were to be subjected to public
participation before taking effect. The State department therefore conducted a
comprehensive public participation from 14th November - 5th December 2023
which you were part of.

The attached Kenya Gazette Vol. CXXV No. 241 dated 14th November 2023
shows the new fees, levies and charges that are supposed to be effected.
r

The purpose of this circular is therefore to inform you that with effect from 1st
March 2024, the revised fees, charges and levies takes effect and all our services
will be charged accordingly. The Regional Coordinators are asked to ensure
compliance of the same.

Please acknowledge that you have read and understood contents of this circular
and that you will implement accordingly.

The copy of the Kenya (Gazette is hereby enclosed.
