Kenya enforces mandatory Advance Cargo Declaration for container imports

Kenya is enforcing its Advance Cargo Declaration (ACD) requirement for containerized imports, with carriers warning that non-compliant shipments could face delays or be rolled to another vessel. The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) introduced the requirement from 3 August 2026. Strict compliance has been enforced since 1 September, according to a CMA CGM customer advisory. The requirement applies to containerized cargo imported through Kenyan ports. Cargo transiting through Kenya for destinations outside the country is excluded.
