KRA lists 4 Subaru Forster variants, valued between KSh 4,715,764 and KSh 5,763,712 new. Duty is calculated from those figures, not from what you paid.

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.
