As of April 10, 2025, Kenya’s imports remain unaffected by the 90-day tariff pause. The 10% import tax still applies.
Kenya is among the countries that will be impacted by the new tariffs announced by the US government.In fact, all Kenyan exports will have a baseline tariff rate of 10% applied, inclusive of coffee – as far as we could tell. The Kenyan government is is planning to petition for a waiver, especially considering that the US has limited domestic production of coffee in Hawaii.
This is a short post as we continue to monitor responses to the announcement.
