Anyone who wants to make money shipping cars to Kenya from the UK needs to know a number of things. First of all, they should know that they will need an import-export licence before they can ship cars from UK to Kenya. Secondly, they will need to understand local Kenyan laws that touch on car importation in the country. Exporters to Kenya should know that there is an age limit for used cars in Kenya. Only vehicles that are less than 8 years old can be imported into Kenya, but this is bound to change in June 2019 as the government seeks to reduce the age limit to 5 years.
Only right hand drive vehicles that have been inspected before export to Kenya can be considered. There are several taxes that must be paid before an imported vehicle can get Kenyan licence plates.
