🚘 Code & Clutch: Turning Dreams Into Driving Reality

Your Trusted Partner for Car Importing in Kenya


🌍 Welcome to Code & Clutch

Whether you're eyeing a fuel-efficient Toyota from Japan, a rugged Land Rover from the UK, or a sleek luxury ride from Dubai, importing a car to Kenya can feel overwhelming. Between customs duty, KRA calculations, port clearance, and shady dealers — the journey from dream to driveway can be filled with stress, confusion, and hidden costs.

That’s why Code & Clutch exists — to simplify everything for you.

We’re not just a blog. We’re your digital co-driver, here to guide you with powerful tools, accurate tax calculators, trusted insights, and one-on-one quote support. Every article, calculator, and update on this site is designed to help you import smarter, save money, and avoid costly mistakes.


🚗 Why Importing a Car to Kenya Feels So Complicated

Let’s face it — the process is layered. Many Kenyans struggle with:

  • 💰 Understanding the real total cost (duty, freight, clearing, registration, etc.)

  • 📉 Estimating taxes using outdated or confusing tools

  • 🕵️‍♂️ Avoiding fraud when buying from auction platforms or fake clearing agents

  • 🚢 Dealing with import delays or missing documents

  • 📄 Navigating KRA's requirements, NTSA, and KEBS compliance

This confusion has led many buyers to either overpay, get scammed, or abandon their dream entirely.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.


🔧 Code & Clutch Was Built To Fix This

Our mission is simple:

Make car importation to Kenya transparent, affordable, and empowering.

We do this by combining:

  • Real-time import calculators using KRA’s formula

  • Custom quote tools so you know your full cost before you commit

  • Easy explanations of the step-by-step process

  • Direct contact tools (WhatsApp, Email) to speak with an expert

  • Safe payment gateways via Pesapal

Every line of code, every article, and every quote tool was crafted with your needs in mind.

🧮 Don’t Guess – Calculate First

The biggest mistake most car importers make is guessing their costs.

Guess wrong, and you could:

  • Pay hundreds of thousands extra

  • Lose money to hidden charges

  • Get stuck at Mombasa port due to paperwork

  • Be denied registration by NTSA

That’s why we always recommend starting with our free KRA-based import calculator.
