Overflight and landing permits
Aircraft operating over Kenyan territory may require the appropriate regulatory authorization depending on the operation.
Facil Trans supports operators with the coordination and application process for aviation permits and clearances, helping gather the required information, prepare documentation and follow up on applications.
KCAA's current guidance states that flights into, from or over Kenya must comply with applicable Kenyan civil-aviation requirements, and applications may require documents such as aircraft registration, airworthiness, insurance, operator certification, passenger manifests or cargo manifests depending on the flight category.
We can support applications relating to:
Commercial operators, Passenger & Cargo operators, Technical stops, Refueling stops, Crew-rest stops, Air Ambulance operations, Overflights, Ferry flights
Permit Requirements
Permit requirements vary by operation and authority. Early submission helps allow time for document review, authority processing and any operational amendments.
