Security is a pretty crowded marketplace in Nairobi - all the best.

In running such a company, I imagine a Certificate of Good Conduct from Kenya Police would be required, particularly for your staff.聽

Of course you would need to have a work permit, probably Class H.聽 I have posted elsewhere about the requirements for this.聽 There is also a Kenyan Government website, with information.

Its useful to find someone who has experience of dealing with visa applications, as they know exactly what immigration is looking for in terms of your application.聽 It is very important to get it right first time - permits are much more difficult to obtain, on appeal

Good luck.

hi and welcome - please be careful regarding reg of a security co here esp being a foreigner. Setting up a business is fairly easy but it becomes trickier depending on your trade. I have done consultancy work for several security firms however one particular scenario a foreigner was seriously vetted by the security agencies and his immigration status revoked as they were claims that he was training and recruiting Kenyans (ex servicemen) for possible mercenary action around the world. With increased terrorism and soured diplomatic relations things have become a bit more trickier. Getting a permit will be your biggest issue as immigration will seriously vet you (not just on grounds of your trade not being 'one kenyans cannot do' but on the grounds of national security interests. Tread carefully especially with whom you deal with. You will need to liaise with several Govt agencies before setting up.

I want to start a security company in Kenya.Need business environment info because I already have experience in security in the government.I also have a couple of foreigners who are ready to add their experience.
