One agent for the whole paperwork chain, so you don't queue.
Every crossing needs the same chain of documents. We run that chain for you, from the C32 at the counter to the last immigration stamp.
We prepare and lodge your C32 export/import declaration with Kenya Revenue Authority, match it to your vehicle logbook and chassis, and walk it through the Malaba counter so your car is released without a re-queue.
Bring: logbook, ID or passport, and the vehicle.
A valid COMESA Yellow Card covers you in the countries beyond Uganda. We check your existing cover, arrange a compliant policy where yours falls short, and make sure the certificate names match your vehicle before you reach the desk.
Valid across COMESA member states.
Staying longer than 14 days in the country you visited? Your C32 must be renewed before you head back. We track the date, file the renewal and keep you legal on the return leg instead of paying a penalty at the border.
We'll remind you before the deadline.
Small commercial vehicles, minibuses and buses pay road user charges on top of clearance. We calculate the correct band for your vehicle class, pay it and hand you the receipt — no arguing about tonnage at the window.
Receipts issued in your name.
We coordinate swift stamping and validation of your Interstate Pass, Temporary Permit or international passport, so your entry and exit records line up with your vehicle documents and nothing is queried on the way out.
Entry and exit stamps coordinated.
Send us your documents on WhatsApp before you reach the border and we start the work early. You arrive, we hand you the file, and you drive on — that is the whole point of using one agent.
Documents checked before you travel.
Alpine and Cove limited is a small clearing and forwarding agency working the Kenya–Uganda border every day. Our clients are private motorists driving to Kampala, tour operators taking groups further into East Africa, and small transport owners running minibuses and buses on cross-border routes.
We know the order the desks want things in. A C32 that isn't matched to the logbook, an insurance certificate with the wrong registration, a pass that expires two days into the trip — each of those costs a driver a day at the border. We check them before you leave home.
You keep your vehicle, your keys and your schedule. We keep the file moving.
Border gates, queues, documents and the long highways beyond Malaba — the places your paperwork has to hold up.
Transporters, tour operators and private motorists who cross at Malaba regularly.
We run four minibuses on the Kampala route. Road user charges used to eat half a day on their own. Now the receipts are ready when the vehicles reach the gate and the drivers are through in the morning.
Our guests were heading on to Rwanda and Tanzania, so the COMESA cover had to be right. They checked every certificate against the registrations and we had no questions at any of the crossings.
I drove my own Land Cruiser to Kampala and stayed three weeks. They renewed the C32 while I was still there and messaged me the day before it was due. Coming back was the easiest part of the trip.
