I want to import this BMW http://www.sbtjapan.com/used-cars/stockid=750916 but very confused with how to calculate the taxes as I keep getting different figures. The FOB price is US$17,750.

Someone please assist with calculating the final cost with the new KRA taxes.

Also you can download the CRSP list and the Valuation template from the KRA website. You feed in your figures, It will compute the taxes.

No one is forcing you to buy it!
