Import duty

Volkswagen Polo import duty

KRA lists 8 Volkswagen Polo variants, valued between KSh 1,768,724 and KSh 4,255,871 new. Duty is calculated from those figures, not from what you paid.

Duty on an 8-year-old Volkswagen Polo

KSh 243,563 – KSh 610,280

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.

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.
