The Nairobi County government announced that applications for 2027 loading and off‑loading zones must be submitted between 1 Nov 2026 and 30 Nov 2026, with the deadline fixed at 30 Nov 2026.

Applicants are required to submit two copies of their application to the Office of the County Chief Officer for Mobility, located on the 14th floor of the City Hall Annex, and retain the acknowledged copy for their records.

Each application must clearly state the exact location sought, including the road or street name and the nearest identifiable landmark.

Existing loading‑zone holders who are fully paid up and compliant with county requirements will receive priority, provided they attach a copy of their latest valid approval.

The allocation exercise is slated for completion by 15 Dec 2026, after which successful applicants must settle the applicable charges through official county payment channels by 31 Dec 2026.

The notice cautions that submitting an application does not guarantee a loading zone; approval depends on the availability and suitability of the requested location and formal departmental endorsement.

Applications received outside the stipulated window will not be considered, and no zones will be granted beyond the stated timelines.

The allocation process is governed by the Nairobi City County Transport Act 2020 (Section 54), the Revenue Administration Act 2021, the Finance Act and other relevant statutes.

Further information, including application forms and payment details, is available on the county’s website at www.nairobi.go.ke.
