Building on AUTO24.africa’s Success in EV Sales

The introduction of EV24.africa leverages the expertise and success of AUTO24.africa, which has already facilitated the sale of electric vehicles in more than 15 African countries, such as Morocco, Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Rwanda, Gabon, Republic of the Congo, Benin, Togo, and several others. AUTO24.africa has built a reputation as a reliable platform for automotive sales, offering specialized knowledge in vehicle certification, logistics, and customer service. With this solid foundation, EV24.africa is well-positioned to become the preferred marketplace for electric vehicle buyers throughout Africa.

Leveraging AUTO24.africa’s Success in Electric Vehicle Sales

The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is steadily gaining traction across Africa, yet it is still faced with challenges due to the complexity of customs regulations, which differ greatly between countries. To tackle this issue, EV24.africa, a pan-African platform specializing in the importation of electric vehicles, provides tailored support to its clients by offering clear and up-to-date information on customs duties, tax exemptions, and available incentives. This information is made accessible through a network of logistics partners, forwarding agents, and local teams. By leveraging its local expertise, EV24.africa highlights the most promising regulatory environments for EV adoption across the continent:

Morocco: Import duties for EVs have been reduced to 2.5% (compared to 17.5% for internal combustion vehicles), with an annual road tax exemption.
Togo & Benin: Full exemption from import duties on new electric vehicles, strongly supporting their adoption.
Ethiopia: Import duties for EVs are capped at 5%, with a ban on non-CKD thermal vehicles in place.
South Africa: Import duties remain high at 25%, though industrial tax credits and regulatory reforms are currently under consideration.
Nigeria: While there is no specific exemption for EVs, a reduced 5% duty applies to locally assembled (CKD) vehicles, regardless of energy type; the market primarily focuses on used vehicles
Senegal: The government aims to introduce 37,000 electric vehicles by 2030. Tax exemptions and incentives for local EV production are being considered to support this target.
Côte d’Ivoire: Authorities are working to promote EV adoption through potential reductions in customs taxes and the development of a regulatory framework to facilitate imports and usage—this initiative is driven by APEME-CI, of which Auto24.ci is a member.
Cameroon: Import duties for electric vehicles are reduced by 50%.
Rwanda: Full exemption from import duties and taxes for 100% battery electric vehicles (BEVs).

With in-depth, country-specific regulatory analysis, EV24.africa helps its clients streamline the importation process, secure fiscal benefits, and eliminate uncertainties as they transition to electric mobility across Africa.
