Assumes the 25% import duty now applied to phones (a temporary stay of the regional 0% rate) and that the proposed 25% activation tax was not enacted. Kenyan shop prices are often lower than this estimate, so treat it as an upper guide. It treats the overseas price as the customs value and leaves out shipping, insurance, clearing fees, the seller's margin and warranty, so shop prices differ. Tax rules and rates change: confirm with the Kenya Revenue Authority.
