Kenya Import Notes
Kenya applies a 25% import duty on the CIF value, plus excise duty (reduced for EVs) and 16% VAT. Electric vehicles benefit from a lower excise-duty rate than combustion vehicles under KRA's current schedule. Rates shown are indicative only based on publicly available general schedules — always confirm current duty, VAT and any EV incentives with a licensed customs broker in-country before ordering.
