Car dealers cry foul as NTSA tightens rules on ‘KD’ plates
Independent motor vehicle dealers demonstrate in Mombasa on June 15, 2026, over NTSA regulations governing Kenya Dealer (KD) number plates, which they say have disrupted vehicle movements and hurt business.
Motor vehicle dealers in Mombasa have raised alarm over what they describe as harsh enforcement of National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) rules governing Kenya Dealer (KD) number plates, saying the changes have disrupted their businesses and left many counting losses.
The dealers say that while they support efforts to improve accountability and curb misuse of dealer plates, the latest interpretation of the regulations has created operational challenges that threaten the survival of hundreds of small and medium-sized dealerships.
