Import duty
KRA values this model at KSh 17,558,857 new, and computes duty from that figure — not from what you actually paid for it.
Direct import
KSh 2,517,891
65% depreciation
Already registered in Kenya
KSh 1,168,079
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.
