About us

Numbers with a purpose.

Goldstar East Africa Associates is a client-focused accounting, audit and bookkeeping firm in Nairobi — turning clean books and watertight KRA compliance into a real competitive edge for businesses across East Africa.

Our story

A premier, independent practice built on efficiency.

Goldstar East Africa Associates is a premier, client-focused Accounting, Audit & Bookkeeping practice based in Nairobi. We were founded on a simple conviction: that operational efficiency is the bedrock of every successful business.

Too many otherwise-strong Kenyan businesses run inefficiently — losing money to disorganised records and avoidable KRA penalties that quietly erode their margins. We exist to change that. Goldstar adds measurable value through active financial management, meticulous bookkeeping, flawless audit records and uncompromising compliance on iTax, eTIMS, VAT, PAYE, NSSF, SHIF and the Housing Levy.

We are fully independent and conflict-free — your numbers and your name are safe with us. From individuals and SMEs to corporations, SACCOs, NGOs and collective investment schemes, we serve clients right across East Africa with the same precision, integrity and genuine care. Karibu.
