The U.S. Embassy in Nairobi will be closed on Monday, October 12, for the Columbus Day federal holiday. This means Kenyans who rely on consular services or other official assistance from the embassy will need to plan their visits for a different day. The closure is a direct result of the U.S. federal holiday, which is observed on the second Monday of October each year to commemorate Christopher Columbus' historic voyage to the Americas in 1492.
The embassy issued a statement on Friday confirming the closure, urging those with appointments to check their communication channels for any updates.
