RE: How do I come back to Kenya with my 9 year-old car?

Any car over 7 years old is not allowed to be imported to Kenya. If you do, the car will not be cleared and finally will be destroyed at the port. Last year severa hundred cars were destroyed at the port of Mombasa because of this same rule.

Nancy,

Do not be all that naive. An 8 year old mercedes bence S-series, or Porche, or Ferrari will still last longer  and survive kenyan roads than any brand new Toyota corolla or Hyundai or any Kia being sold in Kenya. Some of those cars are customary handbuilt.  Or a Jeep wrangler will take ages to disintegrate check most of Jeep wranglers built in USA and see how many years they take to age down. That car may be this man`s icon or he might have survived in it so he may have very good reason to transport it with him home. Look at even the old Swedish volvos,  You will see a lot on the road compaired to some of these present  disposible cars. Can you believe that some bettle engines built in the 1960s are still working even better than a brand new Golf engine?

I think there is an expensive levi on a car over 8yrs old. Why pay more for such a car to come and drive it on the kind of roads that we still have. It may not survive.
 
Donate it to charity

just give it to your neighbor. I know in some countries you can not dispose of your old ramshackle. Bringing that "car" to Kenya will cost you enough money to buy another "new used" one from China or Taiwan.

Dear knowledgeable folks.
 
I have a prohibited (above 8 years) vehicle and I know to return back with it, I need an exemption from the Minister of Industrialization. Does anyone know precisely what the procedure for getting this exemption is especially since am still outside the country and cannot physically walk to the Minister for assistance?
