I am delighted to welcome you to the website of the High Commission of the Republic of Kenya in Maputo, Mozambique. The site has been designed to inform and aid our clients in obtaining useful information on Kenya. Further, it enables our visitors to access sector specific government websites. It is therefore my singular honour to welcome you to our official website.

It is a great honour to have been appointed as the High Commissioner of the Republic of Kenya to the Republic of Mozambique and I look forward to strengthening the existing deep and historic bilateral relations between Mozambique and Kenya over the years to come.

Our work entails the promotion of Kenya as a country to trade with, invest in and visit for tourism or education purposes while creating opportunities for the deepening of our trade and investment relations to the benefit of both Kenya and Mozambique.

To this end, the High Commission works closely with the Government of Mozambique as well as with the private sectors of both countries in a way that brings mutual and sustainable benefits to us both.

I invite you to explore our site to learn more about Kenya.
