Export & Import
Exporting goods and services from Kenya and importing: customs documentation, logistics and multi-currency invoicing.
Zero-rated Exports & VAT
Zero-rated VAT on exports from Kenya: correct invoice treatment, evidence requirements and input VAT reclaim.
COMESA Trade
COMESA membership and trade benefits for Kenyan businesses: free trade area, customs procedures and regional supply chains.
Posting Workers Abroad
Sending Kenyan employees to work in EAC/COMESA countries: social security obligations, work permits and payroll documentation.
Double Taxation Agreements
Kenya's double taxation agreement network: applying DTAs to reduce withholding tax on cross-border income and the documentation required.
