Autos › Re: Lagos Automobile Dealers Protest Sealing Of Their Businesses By Customs by dotedote: 4:10pm On Nov 20, 2019
You're welcome Bro
That which you've mentioned is called Underpayment of customs duties. This is when your customs agent didn't pay up to the recommended amount (into FG's account). This however, is mostly caused by the greedy nature of the agent. For instance, you're clearing a Toyota Corolla 2004 at the port and your agent tells you it's 420k. This 420k is a summation of every payment he's going to make to the necessary quarters (including his own service charge) So underpayment appears in the payment he makes to the bank into Customs Account. That's the one customs see on the road and start their wahala.
NOTE: Your car cannot be permanently impounded by law under this circumstance. You can only pay the balance (that'll be mentioned to you AT THE CUSTOMS OFFICE & INTO FG's customs account)




9jatriot:
Thanks for the enlightenment without resulting to insults like one chronique. Anyway, I will be lying if I said I understand how the ports and clearing operate. My comment is however based on the experiences of people who buy cars and go away with the belief that they have full duties paid only to be stopped on the road by customs and their cars impounded.
Most of the time, you see them making frantic calls to whoever they bought the car from but end up paying the duty to get their car whereas the car dealer no longer cares since he has sold the car already. There was even a news report as recent as a day or 2 days before of fraudulent clearing agents.
Like you said, I do not know what is going on, my comment was based on the side of the elephant I was touching.

9jatriot:
They should go and pay the custom duties before selling the cars. They want to sell the cars without paying the required custom duties so that unsuspecting car buyers will be stopped along Benin road and made to go and pay the required sum. I support custom holding dealers responsible rather than individuals who confidently go around thinking the dealers have paid their duties.
You obviously don't know what's going on. The customs aren't closing the lots because the vehicles aren't having genuine papers. They're closing them up after collecting the papers on every vehicle on the lot and now tell them to come to their office for the results of verification exercise (that would be done on their server). After the collection of these papers, they lock up the car lots and place the FG sticker. Now the owners of the locked companies visit customs office at Ikeja and are told to come back, that it's not yet their turn. They ask for bribe for their documents to be verified faster and still, nothing is done.
You can imagine someone who brought all his vehicles into the country through TinCan port going through all this. IT'S SO PATHETIC.

This is a lesson for some ignorant Igbo's calling Jonathan, peter obi, ekweremadu etc their leaders. apc and nigeria are both fulani projects while pdp is still as corrupt as ever. secondus sold PDP candidacy to dickson for dollars while imbecilic jonathan sold his state to apc for his ego. They dont care about you.

as far as they are Nigerian politicians, all are same. The solution is a new system where power will belong to the people. That is Biafra.

I knew from the beginning I wasn't gonna see a single name of any of the governors complaining cos how can a piece be this long and the writer wouldn't be identified. So it goes to show that this write-up is apparently from Oshiomole's opposition camp.
Oshiomole's direct and combative nature which clearly depict him as a selfish leader aren't helping him at all. Bad leadership qualities.

Autos › Re: How Much To Ship A Car To Nigeria From The USA? by dotedote: 6:45am On Oct 30, 2019
[Great

quote author=aamadmin post=82181873]Ninety percent of used vehicles bought and sold in the Nigerian market are imported. This represents between 200,000 thousand and half a million imported vehicles a year, depending on estimates. However, this reliance on imported used vehicles has come under threat lately. The Nigerian government has recently worked to protect the domestic car industry in Nigeria by introducing levies on used car imports from June 2015 onwards. The market, however, has endured a bad spell as the government set out to protect its domestic car industry and introduced levies on used car imports starting June 2015. We look at how long it takes to ship, and how much to ship a car to Nigeria from the USA.

If you’re interested in buying a used car in Nigeria, you will be happy to learn that there are better options than to just go to your local dealer. In fact, you can buy your imported vehicle directly from the United States. How? By buying from online auto auctions through a third-party proxy company like Auto Auction Mall. This will let you get your hands on a cheap US vehicle from the comfort of your home.

Auto Auction Mall

Through Auto Auction Mall, you’ll have access to hundreds of thousands of vehicles. You will need to set up and account, and then it’s just a matter of browsing, examining all the details and choose the vehicle you want. With help from Auto Auction Mall’s expert customer support, you will be able to get the vehicle of your dreams at a very affordable price.

Now that that is all taken care of, all you need to do is have the car delivered to you in Nigeria. This, as you probably imagine, can be a complex logistical problem and may take some time. Fortunately, the whole process can be streamlined if you work with Auto Auction Mall. Auto Auction Mall will put you in touch with brokers who can assist you in shipping the car from the auction house to Nigeria as well as in dealing with the necessary paperwork.

How to Ship a Car to Nigeria

Generally speaking, there are two ways you can ship your car to Nigeria. Ro/Ro shipping requires your car to be able to move under its own power, since the car will be driven on to the ship and then off it when it reaches its destiantion. Container Shipping is a much safer option because the car is enclosed in a container and shielded from the elements.This option is also more expensive.

Six ports provide Ro/Ro shipping from the United States to Nigeria. These are: Galveston, Texas, Jacksonville, Florida, Savannah, Georgia, Portsmouth, Virginia, Bayonne, New Jersey and Baltimore, Maryland.

As for container shipping, you can use the following ports: Oakland and Long Beach in California, Houston, Texas, Miami, Florida, Savannah, Georgia and Newark, New Jersey.

The vessels can arrive at two ports in Lagos: Tin Can Island (Ro/Ro) and Apapa (container ships). Once the vessel arrives, import duties and other requirements are your own responsibility.

So, How Much Does it Cost to Ship a Car to Nigeria from the USA?

The cost depends on the method of transport. Here is a table of shipping prices that we offer for port-to-port shipping.

Coupe/Hatchback Sedan/Wagon SUV/Long Sedan 40’hc Full Container Load Transit Time
Prices to Ship $1070 $1080 $1150 $3200 3-5 weeks

On top of this, there may be a fee for transporting the vehicle to the port of export. As such, we advise you to find vehicles close to these ports for sale:

Ro/Ro Shipping

Galveston, Texas, Jacksonville, Florida, Savannah, Georgia, Portsmouth, Virginia, Bayonne, New Jersey and Baltimore, Maryland.

Container Shipping

Oakland and Long Beach in California, Houston, Texas, Miami, Florida, Savannah, Georgia and Newark, New Jersey.

Your shipment will take less time to transit when sent from an East-Coast port.

Vehicle Duty Rates and Taxes

When importing a vehicle into Nigeria, you will also have to pay the import duty, and a sales tax. This is, however, only based on the price you paid for the vehicle, not the shipping rates. So make sure you are only paying the percentage of your purchase price, and not including any other fees or shipping costs.

Duty rate Sales tax
Nigerian Rates and Taxes 20% 5%
