The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) slashed the time it took for its customs agents to release imported goods from different entry points by more than half, or slightly over two days, in the financial year ending June.
In a statement, the taxman noted that the duration of time to release goods dropped to an average of 51.43 hours in the review period from 112.6 hours in the previous period, with the taxman attributing the improvement to the increased adoption of Pre-Arrival Cargo-processing.
