Kenya's Motor Vehicle Import Regulations in 2026: A Comprehensive Guide for Importers, Buyers, and Industry Professionals

Importing a vehicle into Kenya remains one of the most popular ways for individuals, businesses, ride-share operators, and fleet managers to acquire reliable, cost-effective cars—especially in a market where new-vehicle prices often exceed KSh 5–10 million for popular SUVs and saloons. In 2026, the process is tightly regulated by three core authorities: the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for customs valuation and taxation, the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) for pre-shipment conformity and age/roadworthiness compliance, and the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) for final registration and road-use approval.

Effective January 1, 2026, KEBS enforced a stricter interpretation of the long-standing eight-year age limit under KS 1515:2000 (Code of Practice for Inspection of Road Vehicles) and Legal Notice No. 78 of 2020.

  Toyota Vitz vs. Nissan Note: Which is the Best Budget Hatchback for Nairobi Streets? When it comes to navigating the hustle and bustle of Nairobi, a compact hatchback is king. They are easy to park, fuel-efficient, and affordable. Two of the most popular choices you'll see on our roads are the Toyota Vitz and the Nissan Note. But which one is right for you?
