The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has announced an eight-hour shutdown of its Integrated Customs Management System (iCMS) this Sunday, October 12, from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for scheduled maintenance. This temporary unavailability will affect all customs processes, including import and export declarations, cargo clearance, and duty payments.

• The maintenance is scheduled for Sunday, October 12, 2025, from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., causing an eight-hour disruption.
• The KRA is the organization announcing the shutdown of its flagship digital platform, the iCMS.
• The iCMS, introduced in 2021, automates critical customs functions and its temporary shutdown is expected to cause delays and potential losses for businesses due to halted transactions and possible demurrage charges.
