See how eCUSTOMS is rewriting the story of trade in Kenya.

What used to take days of queues, stamps, and paperwork is now happening in minutes — digitally, transparently, and from anywhere.
From MSMEs to clearing agents to government officials, everyone is feeling the shift: faster clearance, fewer bottlenecks, and a fairer, more predictable trade ecosystem.
eCUSTOMS — where efficiency meets integrity. Trade, simplified.

A new era of trade has officially begun at Busia.

Today, we witnessed history as the eCUSTOMS Mobile Application was unveiled—cutting delays, reducing paperwork, and opening doors for traders across East Africa.

From women cross-border traders to young entrepreneurs on the move, this is the breakthrough they’ve been waiting for.

Trade just got simpler, faster, and fairer.

With Ksh 3.19M in uncustomed goods intercepted and Ksh 1.6M recovered, KRA’s Marine Unit on Lake Victoria is cracking down on smuggling and boosting lawful trade.

Revenue at Kisumu Port surged to Ksh 107M, up from Ksh 30M last year, thanks to increased surveillance, smarter clearance, and enhanced marine operations.

“We’ve greatly reduced illegal cross-border trade while promoting legitimate commerce,” said Dominic Kengara, Chief Manager, Customs Western Region.

What’s flowing now isn’t just goods, it’s trust, taxes, and transformation.

[Commissioner Customs & Border Control @KRA_Customs]

🚨 Record-Breaking Milestone!
A new historic record has been set in customs revenue collection — Ksh 85.1B in September 2025— the highest monthly performance in our history!
The achievement shows revenue growth fueled by customs reforms and growth in trade and petroleum taxes.

I was thrilled to be at Dagoretti Special School today. From beadwork, sewing with the pupils, planting a tree and sharing advice, every moment was inspiring.
This reminded us that nurturing talent is just as important as nurturing knowledge.
