If you are a driver on Kenyan roads, it is necessary that you familiarise yourself with the KENHA permits portal and the services available on the platform.

It is responsible for international trunk roads that link centres of international importance as well as roads crossing international boundaries or those terminating at international ports. These roads are categorised in different classes, A, B, and C.
