Key China-to-Kenya import facts buyers should plan around:
| Main air gateways | the primary international airport |
|---|---|
| Destination customs authority | the national customs service |
| De-minimis / duty-free threshold | No practical de-minimis on most routes |
| Import tax & duty regime | Import VAT plus duty 5–35%; pre-shipment inspection common |
| Local currency | USD (freight priced in USD) |
| Typical port/airport dwell time | 7–21 days (congestion common) |
| Peak / busy season | Oct–Dec |
| Conformity & certification | Pre-shipment conformity certificate often mandatory |
Thresholds and duty bands are buyer-planning references, not formal customs rulings — confirm the exact HS-code rate for your goods before shipping.
At 100 KG, you're in the commercial freight category — large enough for competitive rates but still within the range where air freight often beats sea freight on cost per delivery cycle. This weight is common for electronics, clothing, and general merchandise restocking shipments going to Kenya.

Current rates for shipping from China to Kenya start at USD 27.40/KG via Air DDP Cleared. For 100 KG, the estimated total is approximately USD 2,740, with all duties paid under DDP. Final landed cost depends on the Import VAT plus duty 5–35%; pre-shipment inspection common applied by the national customs service.
Imports into Kenya are assessed by the national customs service. The applicable regime is: Import VAT plus duty 5–35%; pre-shipment inspection common. The duty-free / de-minimis position is No practical de-minimis on most routes. Under our DDP service these charges are pre-paid and included in the per-KG price, so there is nothing to settle on arrival.
Battery cargo by air to Kenya is accepted with handling controls: built-in batteries follow IATA PI966/PI967, standalone cells need separate classification. We run certified battery channels through the primary international airport; surcharges add roughly USD 3–8/KG.
Freight to Kenya is quoted and invoiced in USD; the local currency on the destination side is USD (freight priced in USD). Payment is typically due before departure (T/T or PayPal), and because it's DDP you settle the full landed cost once — no destination collect charges.
the national customs service typically requires: (1) commercial invoice with HS codes and declared value; (2) packing list with weights and dimensions; (3) bill of lading or air waybill; (4) certificate of origin (may lower duty); and (5) any product-specific certification (Pre-shipment conformity certificate often mandatory). Under DDP we prepare and file these for you.
We compare actual gross weight against volumetric weight (L×W×H ÷ 6000 for air) and charge whichever is greater, rounded up to the next kilogram. For 100 KG this matters most when cargo is light but bulky — consolidating cartons can drop you into a cheaper bracket.
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) to Kenya means one all-inclusive price covering freight, the duty/tax due to the national customs service, and last-mile delivery to your door. The No practical de-minimis on most routes de-minimis position is handled for you, and there are no surprise charges at destination.
Capacity to Kenya tightens around Oct–Dec, on top of the China-side surcharge windows of Chinese New Year (Jan/Feb) and Golden Week (early Oct). Booking 1–2 weeks earlier during these windows protects both space and rate.
