Estimated import cost

What bringing this phone in would cost, worked out from its overseas price plus Kenya's import taxes. This is an estimate, not a shop price.

Overseas price	$120.88 = KSh 15,707 at KSh 129.94 per $1, rate of 7 Nov 2026
Import duty (25%)	+ KSh 3,927
Excise duty (10%)	+ KSh 1,963
Import declaration fee (2.5%)	+ KSh 393
Railway development levy (2%)	+ KSh 314
VAT (16%)	+ KSh 3,569
Estimated total	KSh 25,873 (65% above the overseas price)

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.
