To import any commodity into Kenya, an importer will have to enlist the services of a clearing agent who will process the import documentation through Kenya Customs electronically on the Simba 2005 system and clear the goods on your behalf.
Kenya has a pre-shipment inspection requirement (the Pre-Shipment Verification of Conformity, or PVoC) for exports destined for Kenya. Exports to Kenya must also obtain an additional ISM, which is mandatory for all imported products sold in Kenya to help consumers identify in the local market, imported products that have been certified by KEBS.
For a small number of health, environment, and security imports, import licenses are required. Imports of machinery and equipment classified as equity capital or loan purchases must be received prior to exchange approval; local banks will not issue shipping guarantees for clearance of imports in the absence of such approval. All imports procured by Kenyan-based importers must be insured by companies licensed to conduct business in Kenya. Importation of animals, plants, and seeds is subject to quarantine regulations.
All Kenyan imports are required to have the following documents: import declaration forms (IDF); a CoC from the PVoC agent for regulated products.
