Japan Export Vehicle Inspection Centre (JEVIC) is the inspection body mandated by KEBS to carry out mechanical inspection on all Road Vehicles destined to Kenya from the following countries;
-
Japan
-
Dubai
-
Singapore
-
United Kingdom
-
South Africa
Other than verifying the roadworthiness of vehicles in accordance with KS 1515:2000, JEVIC will commence verification of odometer reading with effect from 1st August, 2009.
Any discrepancies established between the regulatory/supporting documents e.g. export certificates, registration documents, de-registration documents, regulatory periodic inspection documents, auction sheets etc., and the actual odometer reading at the time of inspection, will constitute a failure and such vehicles will be issued with a Non- Conformity Report (NCR) in which case they shall not be allowed into Kenya.

Vehicles originating from countries other the above mentioned ones will be subject to local inspection at a fee provided that such vehicles are Right Hand Drive and not more than eight (8) years old from the year of first registration (the difference between this year and the year of manufacture should not be more than one year).
