VFS Global Opening One-Stop Shop for UK Citizenship Services in Kenya
Leading visa services provider VFS Global is setting up an eagerly anticipated UK citizenship application center in Nairobi, Kenya in 2024 to efficiently assist East Africans with securing their British national status abroad.
Among 240 new streamlined Visa and Citizenship Application Service (VCAS) locations that VFS Global plans to open for the UK Government across 142 countries next year, Kenya stands out for housing sub-Saharan Africa’s only center dedicated to UK nationality applications. Strategically situated in Nairobi to provide centralized access for Kenyans and neighboring countries like Uganda or Tanzania, the VCAS office aims to ease bottlenecks for high-demand UK citizenship services in the region.
From verification appointments to biometric enrollment and document submission, sub-Saharan hopefuls can complete all processing steps locally through this one-stop shop. Applicants benefit from standardization, speed and expert guidance navigating requirements vs reliance on postal applications. VFS Global East Africa Visas Head Allan Asio noted, “We are proud to offer this convenient and specialized center that removes hassles for Kenyans seeking the lifelong benefits and security of UK citizenship.”
The Nairobi VCAS office represents the latest endeavor strengthening VFS Global’s position as the UK Home Office’s trusted overseas administrative partner since 2003. Its expanding global footprint of streamlined administrative centers builds atop other UK visa application hubs in Africa and beyond.
As the sole provider of outsourced UK nationality confirmation overseas, VFS Global is committed to efficient, transparent services – especially in regions like sub-Saharan Africa with intricate application procedures.
VFS Global’s Nairobi UK citizenship center ushers East Africans smoothly through each step of the process.
