Cost of Clearing Vehicles at the PORT in Nigeria


Cost of Clearing Cars in Nigeria 2020… 

Its no longer news that Nigeria still does not manufacture cars (except for a few cases where we hear of cars being assembled in Nigeria).

Cost of Clearing Cars in Nigeria

This post will list out the current cost of clearing cars in Nigeria Tin can port, Cotonou (Seme Border), Apapa Port and other ports to deliver them to a client in Nigeria. Charges such as Nigerian custom duty charge on imported cars, port charges and clearing agent charges will also need to be paid for this to be successfully carried out.

As of two years ago, the system by which the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) charges for clearing cars changed. Instead of charging according to year of manufacture, they now charge according to the cost of the car (Which they determine), not the year of manufacture.

The charge is 35% of whatever you paid for used vehicles, then an extra levy of 35% for new cars making it 70% of what you paid for new car . So assuming you bought a new car for N2 million, you will pay N1.4 million to as Customs Surface Duty. You can easily do the math yourself.

These price can be brought down if you can find a good clearing agent. Some agents gave us the estimated cost of clearing some cars manufactured in the following year:

12 Steps to Clear a Vehicle from the Port

Ordinarily, clearing a car from the PORT should be an easy and largely automated task as it's usually done in other advanced part of the world. However, it is plagued with bureaucracies, system downtime, crowd of people to struggle against and dangerous traffic on the Apapa roads to contend with when clearing a vehicle in Lagos.

I will be breaking down the steps involved.

Below are 12 Steps you have to pass through before clearing a Vehicle at the NIGERIA PORT ðŸ‘‡:


1. Get the vehicle’s Bill of Lading
2. Apply for import duty valuation
3. Input the valuation into the custom server (DTI)
4. Pay import duty
5. Physical inspection and releasing from customs
6. Print exit at the Terminal
7. Release from Shipping Company
8. Sign Gate at Custom Office
9. Collect TDO (Terminal Delivery Order)
10. Receive delivery of the vehicle at the floor
11. Final custom check
12. Final fees


Have you ever cleared a car at the port yourself? Tell us your experience in the comment section so we can all learn together.
Don't forget to drop a comment below.


Note: These steps are subject to change without notice and may vary from one shipping line or terminal to another. We used cars shipped through Grimaldi and Sallaum RORO (Roll-on/Roll-off) as case study for this write up.







If you have any vehicle at the Port, I can help clear it at an affordable price.
