Thanx Mws I will contact him asap.

I still can’t get any quality info on Duty and tax since the URA website has been suspended (hope not for long).

There seems also to be conflicting info on JIVEC inspection, it seems like the UG gov’t abolished it but I am not sure. Could anyone confirm this?

Is there any fee charged on cars older than 8yrs?

any recommendable clearing agent?

thank you.

Now that the year change is coming next month, who can confirm the last date that a 2003 model can arrive and be registered without problems.Take an example, a car is on board a ship at the end of November or early December but arrives late December or early January 2011.It this still valid for registration.what is the cut-off?

Hats off to the contributors in this thread for your informative posts. Can anyone Kindly assist me in getting answers to this. 1. Can import a car registered in Jan 2004 say in Nov 2011? And if so why can't i import a car registered in Dec 2003 say in Feb 2011 as it falls btn 7-8 yrs threshhold. 2. What is the crsp of Toyota Passo as i couldn't get the model on Vjs KRA CRSP list? And finally as for the purposes of reducing the excessive taxes, is there any reliable companies which can deflate CIF invoice while i pay the negotiated figures. Thanks.

Thanks .... did they respond to you???

Any disappointments???

Need any further assistance???


@Githundi ...... even if you deflate the CIF ..... KRA uses the CRSP to calculate duty and not CIF ..... They did this to outsmart scammers like you smile smile smile

So whether you import a car for free; pay the list CIF or the highest CIF .... KRA will get their dues without any loss Applause Applause Applause Applause

The CRSP for a passo 1000cc should be in the class of platz; duet ama vitz ....... if not 1000cc .... check engine number and fuel ..... disel ama petrol ..... then for a rough est. compare with another toyota van of same cc ....

i hope this helps ......


@ Njamba ....Rao are okay ..... deal with Ramu ..... and tell me how it goes ......

@ Mjuaji wa stocks, thanks for the infor on on my 2nd and 3rd qns. Though i need it confirmed that Kra will disregard the cif values even if it gives higher revenues than the crsp values, @ mjuaji wa stocks or anyone else, assist on this and my first question please.

You cannot import a car registered in 2003 in 2011...no way around it (unless you know the man who took over from Kosgey).

As for the duty payment derived from CRSP or invoice i would like you to consider the following scenario:

You buy a 2004 Mitsubishi Pajero V73 (3000cc) average CIF price $16000 = kshs 1,280,000

Duty according to CRSP = 564,880

Duty according to CIF invoie:
1)25% import duty on CIF value : 1,280,000 x 25% = 320,000

2)20% Excise duty on CIF+import duty value = (1,280,000 + 320,000) x 20% = 320,000

3)16% VAT on CIF+import duty value+excise duty value = (1,280,000 + 320,000 + 320,000) x 16% = 307,200

Total duty according to CIF invoice will therefore be 307,200+320,000+320,000= 947,200

KRA will therefore take the value of duty that brings them the highest revenue and in this case it is the duty value calculated by the CIF invoice. So be smart about this issue when importing.


Before you can be be old and wise, you must first be young and stupid.
