Do I Need To Pay Custom Duty If I Buy Innoson Car? by Nowujeda(m): 8:53am On Oct 28, 2017 |
I've been wondering, since Innoson's car isn't imported, do I need to still pay custom duty if I decide to get one of their vehicles? Cc: lalasticlala 2 Likes |

Nowujeda: You have answered the question. Custom duty is for imported items. However, anything can happen in Nigeria. A custom officer might stop you on the road to request for its customers papers. It's now left for you to explain things to him; pray he isn't drunk and armed. 265 Likes 10 Shares |

Nowujeda: Innoson vehicles were brought in as a CKD (completely knockdown kit) and assembled in Nigeria, there is zero import duty on such vehicles so you don't need a custom document for it. If you are forcefully stopped, don't fret, let them take the car, you just get a lawyer and sue their ass for damages that will leave the Nigerian economy in recession till thy kingdom come. It's the same privilege Peugeot cars enjoy, no custom officer would stop all those old Peugeot because they came into Nigeria as CKD too and its hard to differentiate an imported one from bought brand new in Nigeria. 80 Likes 4 Shares |

buyer/seller/manufacturer is required to pay an excise duty, the bearer can be any of the three depending on how the manufacturer wishes to, but ultimately, buyer pays, excise duty is just the opposite of import duty, so the custom is meant to collect it also and a certificate is to be issued. modified op, i just checked through customs site, motor vehicle isnt eligible according to our excise duty list of eligible products, however, there is a clause on it, which is govt policy might include a product not on the list, but i cant say if there is any current policy to that effect. https://www.customs.gov.ng/Guidelines/Excise/ 2 Likes |

No na. Custom Duty is only paid on imported items. All new vehicles, purchased in Nigeria don't have custom duty on them. 2 Likes 1 Share |

You would have to produce evidence that you paid an excise duty. Don't forget their mandate is to collect Custom and excise dutues for the government. 3 Likes |

All you need is verifiable receipt of your brand new car. No need for customs paper if you bought a brand new car in Nigeria. |

nurey: I don't think Peugeot enjoys any privilege. As long as you have a receipt showing you bought the car brand new within the country, you're excempted from paying Custom duty but if you don't have any receipt of internal purchase especially for a newer model of car, you're on your own, whether it's Peugeot or Honda or any other foreign brand. 3 Likes |

No, OP you do not need to. I know you already have the answer to this question since you are educated. Customs are present in production plants as well recording and taking duties on production so no need to pay that twice from owners side as the company has factored same into the face value of the car already. But u see what fear can do to a man. You have started asking obvious questions not because you do not know the answers but because you are AFRAID. Afraid of what an uneducated custom officer will do to an educated car owner on the high way. Yes you could be killed with an AK 47 for driving a brand new car without custom papers and the story carried by P. M news and forgotten by A. M the next day Now this is what a nation gets when they allow the uneducated rule the educated. Fear of the unknown sets in, if this trend continues, I would not be surprised when someone will ask "will government allow my children to attend good schools in Lagos even when I am just a good grade 8 civil servant? " Let me break your fears down to you for proper understanding: The case here is: 1. You 2. The illiterate custom officer 3. Your car Similarly. 1. You 2. The illiterate ruler 3. Your country Hope y'all see that whatever may happen to your car will happen to your country because illiteracy is promoted in the system 14 Likes 1 Share |

Right is wrong in this country. Likewise, wrong is right. Shakespeare said it that year, Fair is Foul and Foul is Fair ; but we all laughed at how absurd Shakespeare's thought process must be. |
