My brother, I included the bold part because smuggling happens everyday in this country. How do you think used tires, used fridges, okirika, foreign rice enter this country?

jaymichael:
I am speaking from a professional angle as I have 12 years+ experience i as a customs clearing agent.

1. I'm not assisting the OP. I'm just telling him there's a way out...

omonla10:
4. Theres what we call ammendment. Even some cars are wrongly manifested. Custom can still establish or add d car to any port of choice officially.

3.what if used land borders 3 years ago and didn't pay duty.. Will u still forfeit Ur car? No.. U can still approach custom offices and process assessment notice to pay duty on such cars.

Bizibi:

And is the duty expensive though I heard it has been reduced.

You see this questions . How and Why . thats the koko behind everything,
that is the magic that is not disclosed to the jews.


As much as there are lots of fake papers for cars from land borders.

There are geniune walk arounds. But it will look like a mystery to you because its not your specialization.


As corrupt as nigeria is today with ceritificate forgery e.t.c
You think ordinary custom duty will be a big deal.



P.s I'm not a custom officer neither do i sell vehicles in cotonou

MrMcJay:
The land borders were shut to vehicles from Benin Cotonou because it was the point of origin for most smuggled vehicles into Nigeria. Most vehicles from Cotonou do not pay Customs Duty and were usually smuggled. Hence, they decided to throw away the baby with the bath water by closing the land border.

Now, if a vehicle is bought from Cotonou and Customs duty is paid on it at Tincan to give the fraudulent impression that it was brought in from Tincan, no problem. You're attempting to help the FG achieve what they wanted howbeit illegally. It's not outrightly illegal but you're exploiting the weakness of the law. One day, you'll pay for that.

The day an overzealous customs officer insists on sighting supporting documents which you used to obtain your C-number, you may fall into a deep pit. That's the day you'll explain how a vehicle imported into Port of Cotonou found its way into Tincan Port at a time the land borders from Benin to Nigeria were closed to vehicle imports.

oviecardealer:
is simple though is a technical process ....beside this is Nigeria I work with the authority to obtain it.......please kindly settle down and read my write up to understand it well because I have explained it before.....but for security reasons I would not explain step by step but the bottom line is at the end we get the desire results Thanks !

olumide4christ:
Mr oviecardealer, you're completely wrong on this one.
Even your fellow customs agent, @saintjoel here on Nairaland has told me categorically that there is nothing like "Tincan Custom Papers for Cotonou Vehicles". He has even put that disclaimer on his threads on Nairaland due to his sincerity.
He even explained to me what agents like you do in conjunction with customs at Tincan to conjure these phony papers for Cotonou vehicles AND how the customs officials on the road can determine the fake status of these papers IF THEY WANT TO.
Mind you, I went with him to Cotonou in 2014 to get my car when the border was still open & he got original custom papers for the car from Seme border command. But according to him, that cannot happen for now due to the border closure to imported cars.

Therefore, you should come & prove @saintjoel, your colleague wrong and also answer @Cosplay's question successfully.
Otherwise, this thread of yours will be seen as a means to scam innocent Nairalanders.

oviecardealer:
laughing out loud....firstly, with respect to saintjoel.nothing is impossible....beside, everybody has a limit as to how they carry out their job..we have different connections and technical know how.
I have been in nairaland for years now please take a look at all my threads, you would not see any body complied that i have don fake customs duty for them before in the past and recently that because i do not involve my self with that.....in my other trends i post pictures of vehicles and their customs duty online so any body can verify their authenticity .
I stop pasting customs document because most client want to keep their privacy
Having said that as the saying goes.... physical evident clears all doubts.....i will provide you with proves.....now i am going to obtain permeation from the clients i posted their vehicles pictures here to allow me paste the customs (C-NUMBERS ) so you and others can go to any customs command to verify if they are genuine.

If you cannot explain it, then it is illegal.

omonla10:
so Ur custom friend says it's impossible to pay duty on a smuggled car.. It's either he's incompetent or he's naive.. People pay duty on cars daily at fou ikeja. Go there and confirm for urself.. So u mean all seize cars are destroyed or what.. Once the car is not seized, they can still raise u a DN which u can use to pay duty to Nigerian customs
