Note: This comparison shows the base CET + standard national levies for commercial importers. Individual circumstances may vary — bonded warehouse regimes, duty remission schemes, or specific exemptions can significantly alter the final cost. Always verify with the relevant customs authority.
Sensitive items are products the EAC has designated for extra protection through higher tariffs, specific duties, or import restrictions. Rates shown are planning references from the local dataset and should be verified against the current gazette before filing.
