How Kenya import costing works
Start from source price, FOB, CIF, or make/model/year. The calculator labels estimates when a precise KRA valuation pack is not available and keeps practical Mombasa and inland costs separate.

Rule packs are source-dated seed data with an upload path for valuation templates. No government page is scraped at runtime.
Frequently asked questions
How do I estimate the landed cost of importing a car into Kenya?
Enter the purchase price, FOB or CIF value, or a make, model and year. The calculator estimates the customs value, applies the current Kenya duty and levy pack, then adds practical clearing, port, inland delivery and registration costs to show a real on-road budget.
What charges are included in the Kenya car import estimate?
The estimate separates official charges — customs duty, levies and administrative fees on the CIF basis — from practical costs such as port handling, clearing agent fees, demurrage risk, inland delivery and registration, so you can see where the money goes.
Is the Kenya Car Landed Cost Calculator free and how accurate is it?
Yes, it is completely free and works on any phone or computer. Accuracy depends on the values you enter; rules are stored as source-dated seed data and shown as assumptions rather than scraped from government pages at runtime, so confirm current rates with customs before you commit.
