Free tools to plan a shipment: work out volume and chargeable weight, estimate the landed cost, check a vehicle and list the documents you're likely to need. Results are estimates; we confirm the details in your quote.
Enter your cartons. CBM (cubic metres) measures volume for sea freight. Air freight is charged on the higher of the actual weight and the volumetric weight.
Estimate the full cost of your goods once they're in Kenya. Duty rates depend on the goods; enter the rate for your product, or ask us to confirm it.
The levy and VAT fields are pre-filled with the rates published for 2026 and can be edited. KRA sets the final figures at entry.
See how much of a container your cargo would fill. A container can rarely be packed to 100%, so we plan with usable space.
Don't know your volume? Work it out in the CBM calculator.
Kenya registers right-hand-drive vehicles within an age limit. Under the 8-year rule, a vehicle imported in 2026 must have been first registered in 2019 or later.
This is a quick check, not a final decision. Special cases (for example, returning residents) have their own rules. Confirm with us before you buy.
Choose the type of goods to see the documents you're likely to need. Actual requirements depend on the product.
