Cost of Clearing Cars in Nigeria 2019

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).

This post will explain the method of charging duties and will list out the current cost of clearing some cars in Nigeria Tin can port, Cotonou (Seme Border), Apapa Port and other ports to deliver them to a client in Nigeria.

To clear a car from the port, Charges such as Nigeria Customs 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 last year, 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 not the year of manufacture.

For USED CARS, the charge is 35% of whatever you paid for the vehicle as Duty and an additional payment for Tax (Surcharge, ETLS and VAT), while for NEW CARS, the charge is 35% of whatever you paid for the vehicle as Duty and additional levy of 35% making 70% of what you purchase.

So assuming you bought a used car for N2 million, you will pay Customs duty of N879,000, i.e 35% of #2,000,000 x (1.28 for tax) = #879,000.

NB: You will still have to pay for shipping company, terminal and other charges.

These price can be brought down if you can find a good clearing agent. Check below for some estimated cost of clearing some cars manufactured in the following year:

Zonal Offices Where to Clear Your Cars.

The popular ports in Nigeria through which cars are brought in are Tin Can port and Apapa port. You will only clear at Seme border if you’re importing your car from Cotonou. The various fees to pay at this border includes the custom duty, the port charge and the clearing agent fee.

Verification of car status can be done at any of the four zonal centres of the Nigerian Customs Service. It is at this place you pay the fees for your car’s uncleared status. The four zonal offices includes:

Zone A Headquarters, No. 1 Harvey Road, Yaba, Lagos;
Zone B Headquarters, Kabala Doki, Kaduna;
Zone C Headquarters, Nigeria Ports Authority, Port Harcourt and;
Zone D Headquarters, Yelwa Tudu Road, Bauchi State.

Another method of verification is to call or send an SMS to the following NCS numbers along side you C-number, the year you paid your duty and the port or location through which your car was brought into the country. The numbers to call are: 094621597, 094621598 and 094621599. You should receive a custom clearance after some few minutes.

N/B: Even though the process of ascertaining the status of your car can be tedious at-times, it is better to do so as the law states that any car that hasn’t been duly cleared shall be tagged “a smuggled car” and can lead to fines or arrest of car owner or dealer by the law enforcement agencies that clear vehicles in Nigeria.

The charge is 35% of whatever you paid for the vehicle and a levy of 35% making 70% of what you paid for the car. So assuming you bought a car for N2 million, you will spend N1.4 million to clear the car. You can easily do the math yourself.
