Ikafika Nai and everything looked set , it was not for matatu industry though i want to use it private for sometime.The prob is she sent some guy to go pay for inspection and tax and the guy gave out the original import papers @KRA . They are yet to be traced walisema zimepotea.@ the moment car has no number plate and he has to go to mbs to look for the originals. The guy @ kra said the papers had been taken for audit zikapotea hivyo.
In another way ni KK anataka .As for now the car is not registered
question :
If i need to use the car with my family, does it have to be a PSV???
Are there temporary papers that one can use to drive ?
Do i need a TLB ?
Excuse if i may seem not to be in the know how its my first time to do that in Kenya .
Thanks and any advice welcome. I thought use of a clearing agent is/was mandatory! The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Actually if you are importing for the first time, and even before paying for the unit get him involved. he/she will advise you on whether it is a deal, whether the duty and what to expect in the process

A couple of questions, when you say KRA guy, what do you mean? Coz i usually pay my tax at National Bank and give the agent the bank slips. This guy your siz sent, ni nani? Clearing agent? Was he given the cash?

My quesss is if they gave "the guy" cash to go pay tax, he pocketed cash and had the vehicle released as a transit vehicle.

Was he given the cash? Actually i do not have info on the guy i think its a guy in their office. He went to pay for advance tax + money for inspection. The car had already been released (is that possible?) its actually in Nrb.So this guy just paid for the tax and did not pay for inspection, he was to come a day after (i do not know why) . When he went the next day he was told they needed the import papers (original) which were @KRA and those guys @ KRA said the papers had gone for auditing. Since then the papers cannot be traced. So i do not know if we can get these papers from the clearing agent in mbsa. The car has no nbmer plate. Where can i get details on these import/export stuff to know actually who is lying to who . My siz or the guy . Thanks all

A car can be given those temporary KG number plates and after passing the inspection one can then apply for the plates. I however leave all this stuff for the clearing guy. He does everything and I just pick my car.
