Do you want to import your own car? In this video, I will share with you the step by step by step process that I personally used , that helped me save over KES 300,000
Any one who has ever thought of having their own car, has always had this problem. You have a car that you wish to buy, but the budget just is not enough. That is why I advocate for people to import their own car from Japan.

Very helpful video-i don't think you mentioned the clearing & forwarding company you used or other options
I had to like and subscribe. Very informative. Just what i was looking for. Thanks brother
Awesome, thank you!
Saved for future reference. This made it look so easy.
Because it actually is. Knowledge is power. I tried with my own car, got it for 600, when market value is about 900. Then did the same for my folks and saved them close to 400K as well. The only place u spend is now with the clearing company, coz u pay them to do the car registration for u and clearance.
@@mumo how many percentage do you have to pay clearance company for clearance and car registration?please help
Thanks so much you came to the right time when I needed someone to guide me how I can import instead of buying at mombasa.be blessed .

Hi Mumo, Quick correction. In 2020, you should be going for 2013
Thanks. I already made the correction in the video.
Really educative
Thanks
@@mumo which company do you recommend to handle the clearing and forwarding
I used a company called Seaways. They are at Yaya Centre. Very reliable. Tell them Mumo sent you. seaways.net/

Hi mumo i can't find the clearing and forwarding registration company in the description pls tell me which one it is also video is good and should i trust trade car view?
great info. do you help people order cars.. I got lost at the good month bad month part lol!
I can. There is a fee, though to help with the same.
This is awesome bro, direct to the point. I watched, mid-way I subscribed..
1. does Kenyan banks have issue making that large transaction using card?
2. are the documents from sbt sent electronically?
3. once it has arrived at the port, how long will it take to get cleared?
4. and other than the customs clearance, are there any other charges?
5. are you good at bargaining, I need one machine soon
Thanks for watching Mogs. N also for joining this growing family 😊
Thanks for the information, I'm kenyan but living abroad in the next few years i wanted to relocate back, perhaps Bringing back a classic car with me made in the early 2000s,so under which circumstances can i make that happen in regards to the new regulations?
Me too, was thinking of doing the same. How did you go about it?
I was waiting for recommendation of the clearing agent.
Check Description of the video as well as many comments on the same.
How effective is tcv in terms of communication as compared to sbt?? I'm trying to get a unit from tcv as it's not available on sbt
Hello, I was wondering how they tax at the airport for household items like vacuum machines,carpets, air purifiers etc. Thank you.
So the price on KRA you add that up to the asking price or is this the price you will pay for everything inclusive
This is very informative. Which clearing and forwarding company did you use?
In the description
Didnt see it in the description
that is a good video. keep up informing people on great matters like those. I would like to ask where and how to pay the custom tax you have calculated. Also we have the SBT in kenya can we consult from them the cars we are buying online or what are their function in kenya. please
How is it make that us own buisness in Kenya to buy cars and sell them again thank you for information and a reply liE your videos by Sonia
Hey buddy, so basically in your example it was roughly USD 9800 + KRA tax of USD 4000 that's a total of USD 13800 correct? That's how much I need to have the car keys in my hands?
Yes. There is a site I have placed in the description where u can check exact KRA charges. You can bargain with the seller on the purchase price.
hey bro
Hello Mumo.Could you kindly share the link to the duty calculator
Which company do you recomend i use to import and clear?
Please do a video on duty for electric cars
Hi Esther, let me do my research.
I need to call u for more information....just watched it all
Hope you got assisted.
Can I explain to us cause I hear there are theft cases at Mombasa where your car can be stolen
I like the way you are explaining it. I will import a car soon. But, how do I know whether the car is ok?..
Cars are inspected before they leave the country of origin.
@@mumo thanks alot... very encouraging..I must get one.
Hello mumo...gud job you doing cograts..., plz how much can I get a Toyota succeed with I need one plz
how much does clearing and forwarding company charge to clear for a vehicle less than Shs1.5m
Is it cheaper than buying from sbt showrooms here?
I'm so interested sir mumo
ok
which clearing and forwarding company in Kenya can you recommend someone?
great work!!
is it the same for motorcycle?
Process is similar.
So how many days,weeks or months after purchasing does it take upto the port of mombasa(shipping duration) just a roughly estimate
4 to 6 weeks, on average
Which shipping company? You did not recommend
What agent did you use?
How much does it cost for clearance from Mombasa and the overall cost in terms of insurance car registration and all that I wanna invest in Uber business....and finally how how safe will be my money do I pay after or before it arrives to Kenya?
It depends on the details of the car like year and month of manufacture, engine size, etc
Easier said than done
Its simple if you follow the steps as articulated. I did my own car like this.... all by myself.
How much did you pay for cleaning and forward company?
What about importing a car from Uganda to Kenya? Is it possible?
So how much did it cost you to own the car? KRA taxes etc..
It cost about 1.4 to get the RVR, while market value is at 1.8 to 1.9
Once you have done the payments how many weeks it has taken to reach mombasa port
Its about 4 to 8 weeks from payment to when its at the port.
I like you watching you vedio can please do a vedio of malimali business
Interesting idea. Let me research the business.
The taxes and levies are they inclusive of the ocar price on sbt dealer? Or i just add the cost of car on sbt and the levies plus taxes cost
nope
good, I wish you too write in details below the voice for those with voice problem
Turn subtitles on.
@@mumo how?
Check where it says CC on the screen and tap.
Are the KRA taxes fixed or they'll calculate according to the price at which you bought the car?
Depends on car model
It depends on the retail price of the car. Not the price at which you bought the car
Say something about the auction sheet
does it work with motorcycles
I wish u also showed us tcv site
The process is the same on both sites. It's just that SBT has more stock
@@mumo ok
Is Churchill Ndambuki your blood relative? Good information on importing a car.
Haha. I have no idea if we are related.
does importing car engine use the same proces kindly respond will be appreciated
do you have to pay the clearing and forwarding company?
Yes
Bro can cars from 1990 and beyond can be imported in Kenya

@@mumo if I start importing cars for sell is it a must I have a show room or I can just import and place it in my house and find clients to buy
No need to get a showroom of you don't yet have a fleet.
@@mumo okay but I need to have license right?
Yes u will, plus register a company.
