I wonder why people are so adamant about buying vehicle in Cotonuo...what is so special in Cotonuo?

Last year, we paid for more than 5 vehicles in Nigeria here after coming through Cotonuo, the same amount of duty we usualy pay on vehicles coming through Nigerian Port.

Is there no Import duty to be paid in Cotonuo Port? Even if there's no import duty to be paid in Cotonuo, can you drive your vehicle peacefuly in Nigeria without paying import duty?...then why are we still going to Cotonuo?.

The truth is simple. THERE IS NO WAY TO PAY CORRECT DUTY IN COTONUE AND NIGERIA WITOUT THE CAR BEING MORE COSTLY. Most cars that comes through Cotonue only do that for 1 reason: To avoid paying duty.

There is no way to avoid duty in Cotonue. But there is a way around it in Nigeria. And that is what people do. Regardless of what they tell you, don't buy the story.

Any car that ship from america and deliver to cotonue will pay BOTH duty in cotonue and Nigeria if you want to follow the law. That will make car more expensive.

Otherwise you get around the nigerian duty to save money. Truth is biter buy poeple will not listen.

Good luck

Thank you. But will our people ever listen?
