A user in reddit has complained about customs withholding goods worth 500k and demanding 3 Millions to release. This is appalling.

Importers ndiyo mnaharibu local economy
Yeye ni fala na anataka kutuharibia uchumi. KRA wanafanya kazi poa
Free market my fren
@uwesmake kwani tena umekunja mkia?
Hii handle si ungeiwacha ikuwe ya kufukuza @patco na uunde handle ingine haraka upesi ya normal communication with the masses.
Export from China to Uganda/Tz then import back into Kenya tax free.
Cheza na moto
Ship na woria hata kama ni container mzima, walipe tu cbm zao
When you rush to import without asking others how it’s done matokeo ndio hayo. Our condolences lakini
Not workable,say similar goods maybe in uganda and tz,othrwise eac certificate hupati too exempt you.or maybe nichanue maybe wewe ni deep state
boss valuation kilindini is pain in the ass ,no sane officer,for every file forwaded to valuation they must uplift if no TT is provided
Mimi ndio maji baridi.
It’s very workable, done it for the past 6 years. Sio lazima uwe deep state, just have connections regionally.
Why long routes sijui ship to tz etc. Si mtu tu unatumia kina Nurex, Rolling cargo and Salihiya na hii mambo umeondokea
Our tax regime is high when compared to that of our neighbouring countries, that’s a loophole to exploit, if you want to make some mad loot
But when you use these shipping agents you don’t pay shit to customs.
Hapa tu uneconplicate things for your business going long routes for no purpose.
Nani unaeza sema sre fast & reliable kuleta stuff from China?
I have been thinking of using Tanzania via Silent Ocean cargo , watched them on their youtube channel.They seem tobe open,reliable , go far and beyond customer satsfaction.I also think CBM and TRA rate in tanzania is way cheaper.Issue is how to get it through the TZ /Kenya border .Hapo ndio unaeza saidia ujanja kiongozi
All these are basically the same level of service I would say. Nurex and Rolling are my preferences
What are the CBM and TRA rates offered by this company from China?
Sande will give them a try.
