What Kenya charges on a plug-in hybrid / erev

Assessed on: KRA values from its CRSP schedule (a published retail price list, depreciated for age) — NOT your FOB or CIF invoice. Treat the figure below as a shape check, then re-run it on the CRSP value for the exact model.

Charge	Rate	Calculated on
Import duty	25.0%	CIF value
Excise duty (BEV / hybrid)	10.0%	CIF plus duty
VAT	16.0%	CIF plus duty and levies
Import Declaration Fee (IDF)	3.5%	CIF value
Railway Development Levy (RDL)	2.0%	CIF value

What this powertrain avoids

Kenya applies these charges to other powertrains, but not to a plug-in hybrid / erev:

· Excise duty (petrol / diesel) — 20.0–35.0% on CIF plus duty

The 10% excise row for electric and hybrid vehicles is the single biggest lever in Kenya — it replaces a petrol band that can reach 35%.

Before you quote: Kenya is the market where a CIF-based estimate misleads most often, because KRA assesses on CRSP. If the CRSP value for your model is higher than your CIF, every line above scales up with it.
