Beating Tax Hikes in Kenya with Badili’s Affordable Smartphones
The Burden of Rising Taxes on Smartphones
It is becoming costlier to afford a smartphone in Kenya this year, as the smartphone market is facing the brunt of increasing taxes. A stringent 100 percent verification process on imports imposed by the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has taken a toll on small-scale traders, including smartphone dealers.
The government’s new cargo consolidation policy has resulted in higher tax rates since it is now based on the transaction value of smartphones. This is as opposed to the rate of Sh200 per kilogram as it was before.
Consequently, prices of new smartphones have skyrocketed, putting a strain on consumers’ budgets. The availability of affordable smartphones has dwindled, and consumers are seeking alternative options.
Refurbished Phones as a Smart Alternative
In response to these challenges, refurbished smartphones have emerged as a smart alternative for budget-conscious consumers. Refurbished phones offer a compelling option for those looking to upgrade their devices while avoiding the exorbitant prices of new smartphones.
As a pioneer in the re-commerce industry, Badili Africa has positioned itself as the most reliable marketplace for refurbished smartphones in Kenya.
