Professional Import Services in Kenya

Importing goods into Kenya involves complex regulations, documentation, and logistics. Our import services simplify international trade, ensuring your goods clear Kenya Customs smoothly at Mombasa Port, JKIA, or other entry points and arrive on time.

Import Consultation

We provide expert guidance on Kenyan import regulations, KRA customs tariffs, import duty rates, and compliance requirements for your specific products and countries of origin. Our consultation helps you understand the total landed cost including duties, VAT, IDF (Import Declaration Fee), and RDL (Railway Development Levy) upfront.

Customs Clearance

Our experienced customs brokers handle all aspects of Kenya Customs clearance through the iCMS (Integrated Customs Management System), including documentation preparation, duty calculation, and liaison with KRA customs authorities. We ensure fast and compliant clearance at Mombasa, JKIA, or inland container depots.

Documentation Management

We prepare and manage all required import documents including commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, certificates of origin, import permits from relevant authorities (KEBS, PCPB, Pharmacy Board, etc.), and IDF certificates. Accurate documentation prevents delays and penalties from KRA.

Duty & Tax Optimization

We identify opportunities to minimize import duties and taxes through proper HS code classification, EAC Common External Tariff benefits, duty remission schemes, and EPZ/SEZ incentives. Our expertise can significantly reduce your import costs while ensuring KRA compliance.

Logistics Coordination

We coordinate with shipping lines, freight forwarders, clearing agents, and local transporters to ensure seamless delivery from origin through Mombasa Port or JKIA to your warehouse in Nairobi or other Kenyan cities. We provide end-to-end visibility and tracking.

Compliance Management

We ensure your imports comply with all Kenyan regulations including KEBS standards, PVoC (Pre-Export Verification of Conformity), labeling requirements, and restricted goods regulations. We keep you updated on regulatory changes from KRA, KEBS, and other authorities.
