In Kenya, since 2013, there have been several revisions of the VAT and Customs Management Act vis-à-vis application of taxes and duties on solar PV modules, balance of system components and appliances designed for use on solar PV systems.
In September 2013 the newly introduced Value Added Tax Act 2013 (“The Kenyan VAT Act 2013”) did not contain any provisions providing for VAT exemption or zero-rating of solar equipment and accessories. This meant that with efect from 1st September 2013 imported solar equipment and accessories were subject to VAT at 16%.
Kenya applies tariffs based on the international harmonized system of product classification and applies duties and tariffs of the EAC Common External Tariff. Customs duties can be levied at rates between 0% and 100%, with an average of 25%.
The purpose of these guidelines is to provide clarity to the solar PV industry (solar PV companies and clearing and forwarding agents (C&F)) on the importation process, requirement and qualification for exemption for all relevant solar products in Kenya through the production of a standardised importation guideline.
