using sallaum line or Grimaldi shipping line

Budget $2000 for the shipping charges to lagos

These two lines you’re proposing, are there any specific reason why I should use them?

because they are the only roro shipping line

Jaid, can you please explain the dangers of compromise clearing? Can the vehicle be impounded once it is on the road? The difference between full and compromise is high biko

Please guys, I thought they said shipping cars from US to Nigeria takes 6 weeks ( a month and 2 weeks).

How come I have been tracking on grimaldi website,

Booked on 3/3/ 25

Loaded on vessel 8/ 4/25

Now the ETA estimated arrival date keeps changing, from from 5/ 5/ 25 to 14th now it is 17/ 5/ 25.

Heading to 2 months.

What really play here is that

First is to get ur car book for the next ship,during this period ur agent loading to the ship over there would fighting for this,if delayed maybe some document needs to complete for the customs to allow it be loaded more so before now one ship normally loaded a particular port but now one ship had to go to all various seaport to pick vehicles to have a full ship loads

Since it's loaded and the date keep changing it might be due to congestion here so they will ont want vessel to just jam parked here,so they'll have to create space for it to unload

no dangers on it

The vehicle can't be impounded because it's having duty,ur vehicle can be impounded based on ur rapour with them,u just need to be rude when stopped and comply to what ever ure been told do,which they can't tell u to go cut ur head off,even if u do full duty customs this days would still demand because the form clearing vehicle is based on one tactics which 846,so they'll believe it's still compromise

Like I said ur rapour matters when stopped to let u go

but the custom checkpoints are just too many. does settling 1 checkpoint cover you for the others? between benin and onitcha alone...i have counted 5 custom checkpoints...... so chances are high 2 or 3 points will stop you..and you settle....will that stop them from stopping you again next 3 or 4months again?...cos they might hv even done crew change...so the crew u settled don waka

ure right

But they mostly stop tokunbo vehicles,once it's plated and u have a good rapour with them

As for the month later on,like I said once u have u have ur plate number it's different

Manlinee:
I know you’re just doing your job, and you don’t have the power to change things . But honestly, I feel like one of the biggest problems in Nigeria is that nobody questions anything.

That’s why you’ll go to a dealership platform today, see a car that originally costs $200k, and suddenly hear a price like ₦1 billion. You’ll just sit there wondering, how come ? , how come ?!
It’s because of things like this. The government squeezes the dealers with these thoughtless insane policies, and then the greedy & foolish dealers turn around and take advantage of the common man. It’s a never-ending cycle, and nobody seems to care enough to fix it

You are very correct. I went to 606 Car in Lekki early March, 2025, I priced their 2016 Escalade Suburban and they 280 Million nairas and also priced 2026 Mercedes S 550 and they said 260 million nairas. For the Escalade Suburban, it cannot be more than $12,000 at the auction in America. That is less than 20 million nairas and they are talking about 280 million nairas. I live in America and I will rather buy auction and ship down to Nigeria than to buy car from the dealers in Nigeria.
