How Can Kenyan Couples Come to India for IVF?

Step 1: Connect With a Trusted Medical Consultancy

Before travelling from Kenya, you must speak to a trusted medical consultancy in India that can guide you on the complete IVF treatment. A company that can connect you to the most trusted IVF doctor and clinic is the one you should trust. At Total IVF Solutions, Dr Nadeem Khan will help you:

• Select the right fertility clinic based on your age, history, and budget
• Estimate the total cost
• Arrange doctor appointments in advance
• Support in visa documentation
• Provide treatment plans and timelines

This avoids confusion and saves time once you reach India.

Step 2: Gather Your Medical Reports

You need to send basic medical records to us so that we can discuss in detail with doctors about your case. Send us your reports

• Semen analysis
• AMH / hormone profile
• Ultrasound (pelvis)
• Previous IVF/ICSI reports
• Any medical conditions

If you do not have these test reports with you, Dr Nadeem Khan will tell you how you can get them. Analysing the reports helps us to know your case in detail, and then we can plan the treatment accordingly.

Step 3: Apply for a Medical Visa to India

Kenyan and other African patients require a medical visa for IVF treatment in India.
You will need:

•  Passport valid for 6 months
•  Passport-size photos
•  Doctor’s invitation letter (provided by Total IVF Solutions)
•  Medical reports
•  Visa application form

Once submitted, approval generally takes 3–7 working days.

Step 4: Plan Your Travel

Daily flights operate from:

•  Nairobi → Delhi
•  Kenyan patients must reach India no later than Day 2 or Day 3 of their period
•  IVF injections start early in the cycle, so travel should be planned according to your period date.

Step 5: Arrival & Initial Consultations in India

On arrival, a representative from Total IVF Solutions receives you at the airport, arranges your hotel, and accompanies you to the clinic. At the clinic, Dr Nadeem Khan will meet you, and from there he will take up your case with the IVF doctor in India.
Medication begins the same day.
