NAIROBI, Kenya, Sept. 7 - The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) says it is working with importers and other stakeholders to ensure faster and smoother cargo clearance following the introduction of new import documentation requirements.

The taxman acknowledged concerns raised by the Kenya International Freight and Warehousing Association (KIFWA), clearing agents, motor vehicle dealers and other stakeholders over the implementation of the new rules.

The concerns centre on Section 23B of the Tax Procedures Act, which came into effect on September 1, 2026, through the Finance Act.
