[ATTACH=full]10609[/ATTACH]
So now, i came across this.
guys are being slapped with a fine of 20k and given 5 days to return the car to Uganda
Does this amount to tax evasion?
The owners are Kenyans.
How cheap is it importing from UG?

Is this yard in Kenya really?

its not about tax, our neighbors don’t have age limit restrictions on importation. so unakuta mtu amenunua a 13 yr old car

I saw the same and I had been entertaining ideas

Generally, vehicles manufactured in the same year are cheaper in UG than here. Hapa gava inawekea watu vikwazo sana

someone told me it costs as little as 200k (it varies)to buy the car from UG. Of course the issue of tax and ‘age’ of the vehicle arises.

a used forester that goes for almost 850k in kenya can go for almost 600K or less in UG, just take a look in olx uganda

What if I have the car remain registered under UG owner but have him swear an avidavit that he has sold the car to me. I also get it insured in Uganda.

Hakuna kitu kama hiyo, for as long as you apply for temporary importation and obtain approved forms C.32 and F. 18 (all under the EAC) from Customs you are good to go. You only need to pay 50USD and you are allowed to use the car locally for 3 months, which is renewable. For your information, I have 3 cars with UG plates, the Harrier which I use in Nairobi, a Mark II and a Corolla which are in car hire and taxi business in Kisumu and Busia respectively.

Boss, KRA imeanza kuletea owners of Ugandan registered vehicles shida. Kaa rada.

This is it…

Wu Tang, kuanzia lini? Hakuna mtu ashawahi kunismamisha coz I have all the relevant documentation- and up to date…

Its 80 USD per 3 months

Is it true that every three months I have to drive the vehicle to the port of entry in order to renew my documents?

I heard the fee depends on CC? over 2,000 CC has a different charge?

In the same breath, can i customize my plate in place of the UG one. Juu naona TM-1 ikikuja sasa.

If you know a person at URA you can get the documents signed and stamped and sent via courier
