Quick Answer

Quick answer: importing a used Buick Envision into Kenya lands at roughly $15,125–$26,600 all-in — FOB China $9,500–$18,000 plus freight, 35%+ (KRA) and clearance.

FOB price: $9,500–$18,000 depending on year and mileage.

Landed cost: $15,125–$26,600 = FOB + ocean freight (~$1,800) + 35%+ (KRA) + port clearance.

Import duty: expect 35%+ (KRA), usually calculated on the CIF value rather than the invoice price. Ask us for a worked CIF breakdown for the exact car.

Age limit: Kenya caps imported used cars at 8 years from first registration — we check the exact plate/registration date before quoting.

Steering side — read this first: Kenya drives on the left and requires right-hand drive (RHD). Most cars sourced from China are LHD, so for RHD markets we source genuine RHD units (common for Japanese and British-market models) or arrange a compliant RHD conversion before export.

Clearance port: cars clear at Mombasa.

Our Envision stock: 12 units, model years 2016–2025, 10,900–164,000 km, 1.5T 169PS L4. Send the target year and quantity on WhatsApp for a confirmed quote.
