@wolyum,@prime I imported nissan vanette 2008/12 2000cc and I paid the following.
Duty 300,000
Idf -5000
shipping line 8000
Port charges 28000

KG plate 2000
Registration for booking 1000
Advance tax 2400
Facilitation of public works 3000
Fuel 10,000
Driver 6000

Some help required...is there anyone who has imported the Axio Luxel previously and how much duty was charged. I'm getting quotes of 480K on duty alone.

The following figures should apply for the 2000cc 2008/12. Compare with yours.

Import Duty Kshs.94,907.00

Other Charges

Grand Total Port charges (Ksh) 20,000-25,000.00

Then add The costs associated with inspection. Chevrons, advance tax, etc.

This is my opinion. You were finywad a few places though politely.

Port charges should not exceed 25k. I paid 20k for my shark. Delivery order = shipping line. Never heard of kra Levy. The public works thing could imply the bribe and fixing of stuff here and there. No complaint there. Fuel uligongwa. I used a full tank (7k) from Mombasa to Embu. Mine is 2500 diesel and yours is 2000 diesel. the difference is large. Driver is usually 5k if you must use one. And you don't cater for his accommodation or transport back. If you can avail your contacts I can hook you up with the guy who is clearing my units. If you are disappointed I will request that you revert to me hapa hapa wazua. All receipts MUST be presented. All. every shilling accounted for.

Thanks @ prime. That amount is way too high..it should be for importing a Mercedes/BMW/Audi..anyway 've been informed that the Fielder Axio model would cost me about 280K.

Thus my question...how does KRA come up with this CRSP. These two cars are similar in almost everything (cc, engine, transmission etc) other than the shape (saloon/wagon)..but the duty for the fielder axio is almost double for the corolla axio???
