The PVoC must be available upon the arrival of a shipment to Kenya. Where it arrives without the PVoC, or where it is issued with a date later than the shipment’s arrival, it will be presumed that the procedures for the pre-export verification were not followed and the importer will automatically be assessed a 15% penalty on the CIF value. They will be further required to post a redeemable bond of a similar amount pending the import’s quality verification.
Both the Kenya Revenue Authority and Kenya Bureau of Standards (“KEBS”) have oversight of this new rule, the latter which administers the “Pre-Export Verification of Conformity to Standards” program for exports to Kenya. As the purpose is to minimize the risk of unsafe and substandard goods entering the Kenyan market by ensuring that products meet the health, safety, and environmental standards for Kenyans, non-compliant goods will be denied entry.
