Import duty
KRA lists 10 Maruti Suzuki Vitara variants, valued between KSh 5,212,932 and KSh 7,668,802 new. Duty is calculated from those figures, not from what you paid.
KSh 747,520 – KSh 1,056,035
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.
