Import duty
KRA lists 2 Faw Ca1120 variants, valued between KSh 6,239,832 and KSh 6,427,027 new. Duty is calculated from those figures, not from what you paid.
KSh 894,774 – KSh 921,618
Depending on trim, for a direct import. A unit already registered in Kenya pays less — it depreciates faster on KRA’s schedule and owes neither the Railway Development Levy nor the Import Declaration Fee.
| Trim | Engine | CRSP | Duty at 8yr |
|---|---|---|---|
| CA1120 SWB | · diesel | KSh 6,239,832 | KSh 894,774 |
| CA1120 LWB | · diesel | KSh 6,427,027 | KSh 921,618 |
Kenya does not permit importing vehicles over eight years old. Figures cover duty and taxes only — port charges, SGR, verification and NTSA registration are additional. KRA describes its own template as a guideline subject to verification.
