On average, shipping a car from the UK to Mombasa, Kenya takes 21 to 30 days. Transit time depends on the vessel schedule and customs clearance process, so early booking helps avoid unnecessary delays at the port.
You will need the V5C logbook, purchase invoice, passport copy, Import Declaration Form (IDF), and Certificate of Conformity (CoC). Having these documents ready ensures smooth customs clearance and compliance with Kenyan import regulations.
