How to Apply for a Class C Work Permit for Prescribed Professions in Kenya

Gather all necessary documents including a duly filled and signed Form 25, two copies of a detailed cover letter from your employer or organization, copies of your valid national passport, two recent passport-sized colored photos, and your current immigration status if already in Kenya. Ensure all foreign language documents are translated into English by an authorized institution.

Include certified copies of your academic and professional certificates, proof of membership to your professional body, and a detailed curriculum vitae. Also, provide a copy of your PIN certificate and any previous permits or passes held.

Obtain a tax compliance certificate from the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA). For renewals, ensure you have both individual and organization tax compliance certificates. New applications require a valid organization tax compliance certificate.

Prepare the non-refundable processing fee of Kshs. 10,000. Ensure you have a copy of the checklist and all other documents ready for submission.

Complete your application by submitting all the prepared documents and the processing fee through the official immigration portal. Print out the form at the end of the application process and keep a copy for your records.
