thanks so much. really appreciate you.
please I'm a first timer. any insight on how I can cross the goods without hitches? on the bank, is it over the counter that I can get the money in togo or through the ATM

1) To assist you on how to cross your goods, i would first ask you, what is the quantity of the goods?

2) over the counter.

You mean very much. thanks so very much.

I don't really know what the volume would be. however, I'll be going there with N250, 000, which will be spent on
male and female fairly used shoes

With that sum of money, it would get you some resonable quantity, i.e if you bargain very well.

You should know that if you buy goods from togo, you would have to cross the goods to cotonue first and secondly, from cotonue to Nigeria.

Direction from lagos. fom mile 2, board a bus or taxi going to semi boader. Bus charges #300, taxi charges #600. They would stop you inside one filling station by name, conoil filling station. Then trek front a bit, by the right hand side, you would see a park , go into the park and you would see okada. Those okada's inside the parks are the one's that would cross you the border with out problems as a new cormer. But those that are out side, even they come to the bus that drops you and ask you if you ar
e going. Just ignore them. Then when you are across the border, you would see taxi's that are going to cotonue. They charge 600 cefa. Thanks.


Thanks house,I really appreciate your patience in educating us thereby, making crossing Seme border look less fearsome despite the bad encounter I had in 2009.

Now it's 2015 and,I will be extremely grateful for the following:

AIM OF TRAVELLING: To make Personal Inquires at Songhai.

1:an UPDATED(if any) info on crossing at present WITH and WITHOUT international passport.

2: Directions to Songhai after crossing the border.
