According to a case filed before the High Court, a Japanese company - Quality Inspection Services Inc. Japan Limited (QIS Japan) - has allegedly been overcharging and withholding more fees than laid out in the contract. The plaintiff says he represents consumers who are affected by the actions of the firm that was hired by Kebs. According to the case documents, the contract provided that QIS charge $155 (Sh16,585) for each vehicle submitted to it for inspection from Japan for importation to Kenya. Odhiambo alleges that QIS in the last financial year overcharged importers by $30.66 (Sh3,280) per vehicle. Odhiambo claims that other inspection service providers hired by Kebs have been charging less than the Japanese company.
