Please the first thread was hidden for an unknown reason!!

This thread has been created to continue in the programme of enlightenment and assistance of the average motorist in validating and processing his vehicle custom duty in view of the recent grace period granted by the CG Customs.

The go live date remains 13th March.

The grace period is for one month.

There is a 60% rebate on assessed duty for vehicles that are already in use, that is vehicles that are already registered.


You can get further information below or make use of the contact.

Best Regards.

The federal government through the Nigeria Custom Service has issued an ultimatum for all vehicles plying Nigerian roads and within the geographical confines of Nigeria to have valid and correctly paid custom duty. Failing to comply with this directive, vehicles without valid paid custom duty risk impound and the owners prosecution.

The government has issued a grace period of one month ( March 13th - April 12th ) for all owners of vehicles without valid paid custom duty to approach any of the Nigeria Customs zonal command and validate their customs duty document.

For enquiries and assistance, quote or call 07035916733.

I can assist with verifying the validity of your custom duty paper and processing of valid customs duty for any defaulting vehicle.

Once again, for enquiries and assistance, quote or call 07035916733.

The Senate has moved a motion to halt the move by customs just as they did the closure of the land borders..... Monday is not too far away, we would all be alive to witness the resultant outcome.

And no, I am not the spokesperson of the Nigeria Customs Service but a qualified concerned Nigerian who is offering his services.

Yes!

If there is any shred of evidence that the duty on the vehicle was paid, you can provide it and I will see if the information contained in the document is enough to enable a reprint. If there is no evidence then I am afraid you would have to make a fresh duty payment.

The grace period would be a good opportunity to do so as you will be getting a 60% rebate.

So, does that mean that Nigerians that have been constantly hounded by men in uniform and the ones who either rob, rape or kidnap have to contend with yet another set of uniforms on the road.

We ar yet to finish with VIO, FRSC, Kastelea, Lastma, Highway police, SARS, operation yaki, Zenda, Lafia dole and the rest and now customs. This is apart from NDLEA, CTU, Anti robbery squad, Anti bomb suad, and the usless LGA revenue officers. It is out of place for customs to leave borders to start checking vehicle papers in the streets.

My brother please do no worry yourself over what The Customs CG is trying to do.

Please also take note that He took this decision on his own without consultation with anybody, even the most senior management of the Nigerian Customs Service are not in support of this policy because it benefits nobody. He is on his own on this and he should on his own go about seizing peoples cars.

Let the grace period come and go, Nothing is going to happen. PLEAS AND PLEASE, DO NOT PANIC AND DON'T GIVE ANYBODY YOUR MONEY, If u want to verify if your vehicle duty is genuine, u can take a photocopy of the documents to any nearest Customs formation (pls, do not go with the vehicle, just the customs document) to verify and if it is discovered to be fake, demand to know the actual duty to be paid, if You can't afford it, just forget it.

I hope you would be able to advocate for those whose vehicle would face the impound hammer should it occur.

Customs have been impounding registered vehicles on lagos - benin expressway, Abuja - Okene expressway etc before this new signal, i believe they will be more emboldened now than they were before.

Ignore at your own peril.

I am still available to assist with confirming the validity of your customs paper and with processing the duty when the exercise commences should there be a need. grin

Hello there....

There have been conflicting reports about the effectiveness or in some cases the validity of the CG Customs signal on the clampdown of registered vehicles without valid paid customs duty. The senate has also lent it's voice by passing a resolution directing the service to halt it's plan.

The service had responded through its spokesperson, stating that the exercise will go on irrespective. (the response is in the link) http://punchng.com/customs-defies-senate-insists-on-payment-of-duties-on-vehicles/

I am not holding brief for the service but the question remains on which side of the divide would you the vehicle owner want to be?

It is better to be safe than sorry..... know your status today!!!

As we await the result on the tug of war between the Nigeria Customs Service and the Senate, we would like to state that the go live date remains Monday 13th March.

60% rebate will apply (you will be required to show proof of registration and use).

Duration is still one month.

Further information will be passed across as they come in.

Best Regards.

Stay safe!

What the customs are saying is that there will be a reduction by 60% from the current duty payable for all registered but defaulting vehicles.

Though the format is still a bit sketchy but be rest assured that the duty to be paid would be far less than what it would have been if you were to clear the same vehicle today from the ports. The exact valuation and duty payable for each vehicle will be gotten from the customs when the exercise commences upon presentation.

Information as I have it now 4:30pm 10th March!

The 60% rebate will only apply to already registered vehicles.

There will be verification of such vehicles.

The method of verification would be known from Monday 13th March.

Best Regards.

Thats a technical issue, It is better u contact d seller, since there is no single document to confirm if he truly pays custom duty, ask if he can provide d BL there we can get a solution. Thanks

Good morning,

Trust you had a good night. Today presents another opportunity for you to take advantage of the grace period granted by the Nigeria Customs Service to validate your vehicles' customs document and if found not to be valid, make proper payment.

The 60% rebate will still apply.

The exercise will still be for one month March 13th - April 12th (we don't have to wait for when it is 1 week to its termination).

The 7 years rule is not applying in this case.

Vehicles bought from major dealers such as Elizade, Scoa motors, dana motors etc need not worry their sweet heads. In the case of misplaced customs duty covering paper, they can approach the dealer for a new one.

I can still be reached on 07035916733.


Thanks and have a great day.

Best Regards.
