We have not verified a price for this phone in Kenya yet. Shop prices are never converted from another country.

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	$394.51 = KSh 51,263 at KSh 129.94 per $1, rate of 7 Nov 2026
Import duty (25%)	+ KSh 12,816
Excise duty (10%)	+ KSh 6,408
Import declaration fee (2.5%)	+ KSh 1,282
Railway development levy (2%)	+ KSh 1,025
VAT (16%)	+ KSh 11,647
Estimated total	KSh 84,440 (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.
