This study focused on the impact of visa restrictions by Kenya on international arrivals. A special emphasis was done with reference to Nigeria. The government migration policy has different restrictions on entry and departure of persons. It would be appropriate for a study to be undertaken to examine the effects on tourist arrivals for the visitors who have less restrictions which for instance imply that they can get visas on arrival. Similarly, the study can be replicated to other nationalities that face visa restrictions as has been the case of Nigerians.
