Kenya’s competition bill would let a regulator police how Uber and Bolt treat drivers - July 2026
Kenya's Competition (Amendment) Bill, 2026 proposes new regulations empowering the Competition Authority of Kenya to police business practices concerning ride-hailing platform drivers. Separately, the Kenya Revenue Authority has effectively doubled its tax on foreign digital platforms to 3% under a new Significant Economic Presence Tax, targeting companies selling digital services in Kenya without a physical presence. At the same time, Google has introduced a new account recovery method requiring users to record a short video of their face, which has drawn significant criticism due to privacy concerns. These developments highlight growing regulatory scrutiny of digital platforms across Africa.
