The government had extended the previous deadline from December 31 last year to November 2022, to allow more Kenyans to acquire the new e-passport.
The process to acquire new passports had turned into a nightmare for many Kenyans who were forced to spend long hours in the endless queues at Nyayo House, Nairobi.
EAC directed its members to begin issuance of the new digital passport by January 31, 2018.
