For any work permit, you would apply for a 'Dependent Pass' for your wife and any children. This pass allows your wife to reside in Kenya, but not to do any type of work.

Thanks for reply. Just Last question the security bond which pay while applying for dependent pass. is it refundable or non-refundable.
