Car shipping to Kenya
We ship vehicles to Kenya — RoRo or container
Kenya is one of the destinations we move cars to regularly, through the Port of Mombasa. We recommend the most economical method for your car’s value and the arrival port, and prepare the entry documents before departure, not after the vehicle arrives.
- RoRo: The vehicle drives on by its own wheels — the most economical for used cars.
- Container: Secured with four straps and chocks under the tyres — more protective for luxury and classic cars.
- Triptyque: Temporary-entry procedures and release documents ready before shipping.
About this route
What sets shipping to Kenya apart
What its customs look at
Kenya registers only right-hand-drive cars no more than eight years from first registration, after a pre-shipment roadworthiness inspection. So cars from the Kingdom, being left-hand drive, do not enter for use there, apart from special-purpose vehicles. They do, however, transit Mombasa to neighbouring countries.
What we ship there most
- Vehicles in transit to neighbouring countries
- Equipment and machinery
- Commercial goods
- Personal effects
A tip from experience
If your final destination is South Sudan, Rwanda or eastern Congo, left-hand drive is accepted there and Mombasa is your transit port.
