Both. Private owners and local dealers list on Shopi, and you message whoever listed the car directly — there's no broker in between. Open a listing to see the seller's profile and their other listings.

A foreign used car was imported second hand, most often from Japan, and registered in Kenya on arrival; Kenya only allows used imports up to eight years old. A Kenyan used car has already been driven in Kenya. Foreign used usually costs more; a Kenyan used car with service records can be the better buy.

Check the e-Logbook yourself by its QR code or an eCitizen search, confirm the seller's name matches their ID and no lender is on the record, have a mechanic inspect the car, and never pay a deposit for a car you haven't seen. Sign a sale agreement and pay by bank.

The seller starts the transfer on the NTSA service portal in eCitizen and you accept it from your eCitizen notifications; the e-Logbook then shows you as the owner. You need your ID, KRA PIN and an active eCitizen account.
