Import duty

HONDA Odssey Hybrid Absolute Sensing EX

KRA values this model at KSh 6,468,813 new, and computes duty from that figure — not from what you actually paid for it.

Duty on an 8-year-old Odssey Hybrid Absolute Sensing EX

Direct import

KSh 927,610

65% depreciation

Already registered in Kenya

KSh 430,329

83% depreciation, no RDL or IDF

A vehicle already registered in Kenya depreciates faster on KRA’s schedule and pays neither the Railway Development Levy nor the Import Declaration Fee. Most online calculators miss this.

Kenya does not permit importing vehicles more than eight years old, which is why the table stops there. These figures cover duty and taxes only — port charges, SGR, verification, Interpol clearance and NTSA registration are additional. KRA describes its own template as a guideline subject to verification, so confirm with a clearing agent before committing funds.
