How to Track Your Kenyan Passport Application Status Online

Once you've applied for a Kenyan passport, it's essential to stay updated on the status of your application. Here's a simple guide on how to track the progress of your passport application online:

Step 1: Visit the eCitizen Portal

  1. Open your web browser and go to the eCitizen website.
  2. Log in using your email address and password that you used during your passport application.

Step 2: Navigate to the Immigration Section

  1. Once logged in, select the Department of Immigration Services from the services list.
  2. Click on the Track Passport Application option.

Step 3: Enter Your Application Details

  1. You will be prompted to enter specific details, such as your application reference number (which you received after completing your passport application).
  2. Alternatively, you may be asked to provide your ID number or passport number.

Step 4: Check the Status

Once you've entered the required details, the portal will display the status of your application. Here are some possible statuses you might encounter:

  • Pending: Your application is still under processing.
  • Approved: Your passport has been approved and is ready for collection.
  • In Progress: Your application is being processed and biometric data is being verified.
  • Rejected: Your application has been rejected due to missing or incorrect information (you will need to reapply).

Step 5: Request Updates via SMS/Email

Some users may also receive notifications on their email or SMS regarding the status of their passport application, so ensure your contact details are accurate in the system.

Step 6: Contact Immigration Services if Needed

If the online portal shows that your passport is delayed, or if you need further assistance with the tracking, you can contact the Department of Immigration Services directly via their helpline or visit the nearest Huduma Centre.
