KEBS-Certified & eTIMS-Compliant Building Materials in Kenya (2026) | BHD

Are your building materials in Kenya KEBS-certified and eTIMS-compliant?

Every genuine building-material purchase in Kenya should carry two things: KEBS certification (proof the material meets Kenyan standards) and a valid KRA eTIMS electronic tax invoice (proof of VAT and your right to claim it). BHD supplies KEBS-certified steel, polycarbonate sheets and Alucobond panels with a compliant eTIMS invoice on every order — so your project passes audits and your input VAT stays claimable.

• KEBS-certified materials — genuine gauge, thickness and grade
• Valid KRA eTIMS invoice on every purchase — VAT-claimable
• Proper documentation for contractors, procurement and audits

Why compliant building materials matter for your project

In 2026, KRA's eTIMS (Electronic Tax Invoice Management System) applies to material purchases across the construction sector. Buying from a compliant supplier protects you three ways:

• Your tax deductions hold up. Only purchases backed by a valid eTIMS invoice can be claimed against VAT and income tax.
• Audits stay painless. Matching invoices to deliveries gives KRA a clean paper trail.
• Materials are genuine. KEBS certification means the steel gauge, sheet thickness and panel grade are exactly what you paid for — not under-spec substitutes.

What BHD supplies — fully documented

Every order from BHD ships with a KEBS-certified, eTIMS-compliant invoice. Our building materials include:

• MS steel — beams, channels, flat bars, TMT, chequered sheets and hollow sections
• Polycarbonate roofing sheets — hollow, solid and corrugated
• Alucobond / ACP panels — for cladding and facades
• Pipes, perspex sheets, WPC wall panels and marble boards

How to verify an eTIMS invoice in 4 steps

1. Check the format — it must show the supplier PIN, eTIMS control number, date, material description and quantity.
2. Look for the KRA authentication — a QR code or verification watermark.
3. Validate on the KRA portal — confirm the invoice number resolves to the registered supplier.
4. Match it to delivery — quantities and descriptions should match what arrived on site.
