It is easy to ship cars to Kenya. From large commercial trucks to sedans, saloon cars, to SUVs and even the most bespoke sports cars and bikes. The cars must however comply to the local regulations and laws which include:

  • You cannot import a car older than 8 years in the Kenyan Legislation
  • You can only import  RHD (Right Hand Drive) cars in Kenya
  • Vehicle must have undergone Quality Inspection in its country of origin

That’s it! The above are the only regulations you may be faced with in the car importation process. Once you have all these in mind, it is easy to begin shipping cars to Kenya.

In Kenya, it is more ideal to undertake the car shipping process through the insight of a vehicle acquisition and importation company. UK RoadRunner is one such company that provides the most efficient and most transparent avenue for undertaking the car importation process in Kenya.

    1. Hello, It is not possible. The shipping process takes about 5-6 weeks and by the time it lands and is cleared at the Mombasa Port, it will have exceeded the 8 years.
