Government import duties are calculated upfront and communicated before shipping

"The £7.99/kg rate covers your shipment end-to-end. We do not add a separate clearance fee when your parcel arrives in Kenya — that's the Triple A difference."
Note: Where KRA import duties or VAT are applicable on your goods, these are government-set charges. We calculate them upfront and communicate them before your shipment departs — no surprises on arrival.

Cargo Guide

What Can Be Shipped?

Air freight is best for time-sensitive, lower-weight cargo. If you have heavy or bulky goods, our sea freight service from £2.95/kg is the better option — we'll advise you on the right choice.

Common Questions

Express Air Freight FAQ

The questions we hear most often about express parcel shipping from the UK to Kenya.

Is the £7.99/kg rate truly one clear price — no fees when it arrives in Kenya?
Yes. Our £7.99/kg covers the full chain — UK warehouse, air freight, and KRA customs clearance processing via Azaanex in Kenya. We do not charge a separate clearance fee on arrival — so there are no surprises when it lands.
What is the cut-off time to make the Monday flight?
Friday midday at our Southall warehouse. Cargo received after cut-off goes on the following weeks shipment. We recommend arriving by Thursday 4pm if you have a large or complex shipment.
Is there a minimum weight for express air freight?
No minimum weight. A single kilogram ships at £7.99. Whether you're sending one parcel or 50kg of business stock, the same rate and schedule applies.
Can I use your Southall warehouse to receive my UK online shopping and forward it to Kenya?
Yes — this is one of our most popular services. Give retailers our warehouse address: Unit Z01, 8a Canal Yard, Hayes Road, London Southall UB2 5NA when ordering from Amazon, eBay, ASOS, or any UK retailer. We receive your parcel, hold it until Monday, and it ships with the weekly departure. No separate receiving fee.
What documents do I need to provide for air freight?
For personal effects: a description of contents and value. For commercial goods: a commercial invoice and packing list. For KEBS-regulated products (electronics, cosmetics, food products, toys): Certificate of Conformity (CoC) / PVoC certificate is required — without it your goods will be held at JKIA. If you're unsure whether your goods are KEBS-regulated, WhatsApp us before shipping.
What if my goods are heavy — is sea freight better?
For cargo above approximately 100kg that isn't time-sensitive, sea freight at £2.95/kg all-inclusive is significantly cheaper. Transit is 40–45 days vs 3 business days by air. We're happy to advise the right service for your shipment — just WhatsApp us the weight and contents.
