I ordered for a Honda fit hybrid beginning of August and confirmed duty with total clearance charges then coming to 320k or thereabout. When the car landed in Mombasa, I was shocked to be hit with a 410k charge. I quickly checked with dutycal and found that true to it duty had actually changed by close to 100k. I confirmed with my clearing agent who informed me that the CRSPs were adjusted upwards and backdated to 1st July. Didn’t have a choice but felt conned by my government! Kweli tulijipeleka kwa moto. I actually found it so stupid; one cannot even plan coz you are not even sure what cards the tax man is hiding under the table to squeeze you once you have sealed a deal

Can I import a 7 year old car after June 2019? I hear that the law on car Importation will change to a maximum of 5 year old cars effective June 2019? The man who marries a beautiful woman, and the farmer who grows corn by the roadside have the same problem
