Import duty
KRA lists 2 Mercedes Slc variants, valued between KSh 7,953,935 and KSh 14,057,411 new. Duty is calculated from those figures, not from what you paid.
KSh 1,140,572 – KSh 2,015,793
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 |
|---|---|---|---|

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.
