The Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) has announced a 100% waiver on accrued storage and warehouse rent charges for long-stay containerized cargo at the Port of Mombasa. This waiver, valid until December 6, 2025, aims to relieve importers of high demurrage costs.

• The waiver applies to port storage charges and customs warehouse rent for long-stay containerized cargo.
• The Managing Director of KPA is William Ruto.
• The waiver benefits Kenyan importers and traders from land-locked countries like Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan, and the DRC, potentially saving them millions of shillings.
