Hello Fonelanders. So I want to purchase a phone from AliExpress and I need to know how much custom charges for import duties. Mind you, the phone is within the range of $150-$180.

Tell your seller to quote it as $50 phone or tell him to put the phone in an earphone carton.

Else, you might end up paying the cost of that phone to clear it
But how can one do this? To contact the seller before shipment.

Please save the naira, shun the dollar. Buy your phone in a credible store here in Naija.

One of the issues (major) we've been having is enlightment (information dissemination) by the FG. It's building their economy and killing ours.

even if i could, would they listen. I'm just of that school of thought that 'change' starts with the individual. I still love my abused country, I will protect her interest even in my privacy.

As someone using Aliexpress for 7 years plus now, it's relatably safe. Your item has a 90% probability of not arriving if you use free shipping (like cainao shipping.......) that arrives in two months plus. Use Aliexpress shipping, it'll arrive (through speedaf).

The custom fees are paid together during purchase. But in some rare cases (very rare) you'd pay at the post office (if they sent it to post office) I've paid maximum of 1k at post office so it's not bad.

At the OP, I bought an item of 300+ USD and didn't pay a dime for customs. But if you're skeptical, tell the vendor to label it as gift. Ndewo

You don't have to go through customs to get your purchased items.
They are delivered by dispatch riders (Speedaf) to your destination address.
Shipping fee is paid during purchase.

i kid you not. I have never made a move to purchase anything having to do with deliveries. I go just carry myself go shop/mall/market...e get why. Simply put too many 'edited' befors and after realities. All choice yours though. It's a lotta money still. T'care.
Re: How much does custom charge to Import a phone from Aliexpress? by foxxydude: 1:10pm On Dec 31, 2022
Customs charge you 17% of the phone worth
Even if you tell the seller to reduce the price or label as gift it will not work
Customs have AliExpress prices for all phones they will calculate and give you your bill at the post office no worry yourself grin

Bro, That is not the actual price of that phone, I will cost more, way more than what you are seeing there.

I don't know the exchange rate Aliexpress uses but it is not correct.

That is by the way, how do intend to pay for the item?
Re: How much does custom charge to Import a phone from Aliexpress? by Chukwudi098: 2:09pm On Dec 31, 2022
Aliexpress is a good online shopping store. I do use it. In aliexpress, there's no fixed price for shipping any product you ordered, and mind you, there are some products that have free delivery.

So what you have to do is that when registering in aliepress make sure that's their store because scammers are now developing shopping stores like that. And their aim is just to get your credit card details and then redirect it to another store and use it to shop for themselves.

Im aware of that. But its still not as expensive as jumia. My current phone is from aliexpress 4 years ago. Price on ali was 49 but i was debited 52. As for the payment plan i have no idea yet.

You should see my orders. The only time some idiot tried to con me was for 22k worth of li-ion battery. Gave me a fake tracking number. Live Customer service chat came to my rescue. I prefer ali to jumia any day
