What Do You Do If Your Car Has No Custom Papers. by Nobody: 9:47am On Nov 26, 2016
Hello all.
I was driving to Owerri and on the road I saw over 12 already registered vehicles impounded by the custom officials who have a check point there.

Can someone experienced tell me what to do if your car has no valid custom papers,

Can the custom papers be gotten?

Is there a legislation that protects innocent car owners who do not know they were given fake custom papers.

Is there a fine to redeem impounded vehicles

or will a car be forfeited once it is impounded by customs officials for not having custom papers.


Thank you

Most Nigerian drivers need this information to avoid getting into such unimaginable situation.

Go and get an affidavit at any court that your custom papers were misplaced. Keep a copy of the sworn affidavit in your car.

You will thank me and my irunmoles with a bottle of Eagle Aromatic Schnapps & a Crocodile.

Thanks elshanAutos,

You sound really informed on the subject, can you explain in details or better still answer the questions below,

How can one apply for the custom papers

Can't a sworn affidavit be used in lieu of custom papers?

Thank you in advance.

But,

Do these custom officials respect court affidavits?

Be not dismayed. Ofcourse, there are always some custom officers who will want to take advantage of neophytes like yourself with shakara once you present them with your sworn affidavit.

Don't even try to plead or quarrel with them unless you're willing to grease their palm.

Leave your car with them, get a professional lawyer and sue them to court. Yaasin - if the Comptroller General of Customs (Hameed Ali) does not contact you directly, be rest assured that a DCG definitely will.

Just make sure the lawsuit settlement starts from 1Billion Naira and above - Goodnyte!

The answer is simple: It's either you go get the custom papers done or you avoid driving your car interstate.
