  "summary": "The Kenya Good Conduct Certificate applicants must be aware of a new six-month rule, announced by Huduma Kenya on September 10, 2026. This rule requires applicants to complete the fingerprint capture process within six months of making payment for the certificate, which has significant implications for Kenyans living abroad. The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) confirms that fingerprint capture can be done at Kenyan embassies, high commissions, or consulates serving applicants in the diaspora, making it possible for individuals outside Kenya to comply with the new deadline.",
