Jelad ventures is an advocate for a clean and successful entry for vehicles coming into NIGERIA through the port OR land borders. Vehicles could be cars, SUV, heavy machineries etc but as long as custom duty is paid,no issues will hinder it's movement.

Our crew was at the Federal Operations unit in Ikeja to help retrieve two vehicles that were impounded by the patrol. When we tell prospective importers that it's all about getting an agent that will quote low prices but getting an agent that will quote low prices and also get the vehicles into NIGERIA with no hassles. Many importers are always Penny wise but pound foolish when it comes to duty payment and with the new authorization from customs HQ that even registered vehicles should be seized when they are underpaid OR smuggled,many vehicle owners will have their vehicles impounded on the highways.

The two Camry cars were impounded because they were underpaid, the agents that were given the jobs paid N220,000 each instead of N300,000 - N350,000 in connivance with the importers but unfortunately they were all seized by f.o.u and each was released after spending almost N700,000 in their office. One of the importers had earlier contacted the JELAD crew to ask for the duty and he was given a quote of N380,000 **** CHARGED WITH THE NEW RATE OF N313 - 1$**** but someone somewhere decided to give the job to another agent for N280,000 which at the end backfired and they later had to seek for JELAD ventures' help to retrieve the cars from customs in Ikeja,they spent almost N700,000 extra on each car before they could be retrieved.

*** CHECKING YOUR DOCUMENTS DOESN'T COST MUCH AND ALLOWING AGENTS TO RAISE DEBIT NOTES FOR YOU TO AUGMENT WHAT THE INITIAL PAYMENT DOESN'T COST MUCH TOO.

*** ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU PAY THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF MONEY/DUTY BEFORE YOUR VEHICLE'S ENTRY INTO NIGERIA..

That's why we at JELAD ventures make sure that we strike a balance between what you've to pay for duty and what you can afford to pay as an importer. We make sure that what you pay doesn't go beyond what you're supposed to pay and you don't need to drain your bank account while paying...

Have u ever wondered how you can identify fake custom papers?

All you need to check is what we call "CUSTOMS REFERENCE NUMBER" or c-number on your SGD form *single goods declaration form*.

This particular number is actually used to input details of your vehicle and payment of duty into the customs' database. It shows information like the consignee info ( agency handling your job),the means of entry (road for vehicles through land borders and ports for sea),office of entry (idiroko customs command or seme customs command or tincan port),location of vehicle and place of discharge(idiroko border/seme border,tincan),name and address of person/persons responsible for financial settlement (the owner of the vehicle) etc.

What fraudulent dealers do is called MO or machined outside-this is a process where a forger forges the bank receipts and all customs documentation. The documents look genuine but are not in the customs data base. It is a giant syndicate in the ports and borders because the vehicles are ultimately smuggled out of the ports/borders with conivance of fraudulent customs officials.

At the top right hand corner of your document is a very bold set of numbers. This is the "C" number. You can not miss it because it is so bold and prominent. Underneath it is a date. That date is to reflect the date duty was paid at the bank and stored in the customs ASSYCUDA data base. ASSYCUA means "automated system customs data". And the date under the C number means that that C number was computed into the data system on that date plus all the charges paid. If the payment reflects on the data base it means your documents are genuine,on the other hand if it does not reflect it means your car documents are duds/fake and your vehicle is liable to seizure and confiscation if you are stopped at any check point,if you are on a long distance journey.

My advise to any one buying a car from anybody is to request for the relevant documents in particular the SGD form which means "single goods declaration form" and has the C number boldly written at the top right hand corner. Under the C number is the date that document was posted into the data system.
No two vehicles can have the same C number and date. So armed with this you can visit any customs station to know if your documents are genuine.

With some cotonou smuggled cars showing up on our streets with forged documents as lagos cleared cars and vehicles been M.Od out of ports,this is a stress-free method of verifying your papers.

We have opened this thread for verification of C-numbers from the following points of entry -

1. Lagos port
2. Seme
3. Idiroko.

All you need to do is supply your name,address,VIN and the C-number of the vehicle and we run checks on it.THERE'S NO FIXED CHARGE FOR THE CHECKS BUT WHATEVER THE LORD PUTS IN YOUR HEART AS TIPS CAN BE SENT THROUGH OUR ACCOUNT...

If any importer falls into these category,he/she can approach a licensed AGENT to raise what is called a DEBIT NOTE (D.N). A debit note is raised with the importers consent,its raised between the C. A. C,post clearance unit and the valuations units.

The D. N is used to cover-up for the balance of what was supposed to be paid as duty initially and believe me, a DN will save you from embarrassment when custom officers stop you on the highway.

Please note that before a DN can be raised, your papers must be original and the original year of declaration must be known, also the cheapest you can process a DN is N170,000 but please note that it's also subject to the model of the vehicle you're declaring.

Picture one shows the initial payment of N158,000

Hello,
What do you advise I do about this.?
I bought a Toyota Camry 2011 at Berger in November 2014. Among the papers given to me by the dealer, was the customs paper showing they had paid N650k.
For the first time, this past August, I travelled to the North, via Ondo State. I was accosted by the custom people at Owena... long story short, my car was impounded. After calling everyone I knew, I paid another duty (N400k at Union Bank in Akure, and N120k as penalty) at the customs office before collecting my car the next day.
All this while, iI was calling the dealer, he told me, I should not worry, when I get back to Lagos, he will settle me.
Alas, he gave me N150k last week and threatened me not to call him again...
What do you think I should do. I have taken a lawyer already, but I am just hoping, I will not lose more than the N150k he has given to me...
What do you think?

lawalta:
New custom papers for the car.

What papers were you given when you paid N400k in AKURE?

saintjoel:
So what do you want me to do now sir?

valarinz:
lol, u dey vex oo

saintjoel:
I'm so sorry if the question sounds rude but from what I can understand, the man has paid duty and he has the papers to prove it. I believe that whatever is going on between him and the cat dealer is a civil case that can be resolved by the police or law courts.

OUTSIDE EXIT.

This is when an agent captures and makes payment through designated Banks to the Nigerian Customs Service but doesn't do the necessary documentation before releasing papers to the importer. In other words, the importer is handed a file with original bank teller and acknowledgement slip while every other paper in the file is fake,the vehicles are later smuggled out at the end.

Most of these "OUTSIDE EXIT" jobs are usually done for car dealer, third party relatives or end users that are greedy and want to shortchange the government but what they fail to realise Is that immediately the payment was made, an alert will be see will be seen in Abuja and every other assycuda unit. That alert will always work against the vehicle's free movement cos any checkpoint it gets to, officers especially the eagle eyes ones from the federal operations unit will always spot it and deal with the offending importer appropriately.

Please note that in the issue of raising a D.N,the initial document must go through proper processing before a D. N can be raised. Photocopies can not be Processed, only the original documents must be presented before the alert can be cleared. If any agent claims he/she can process the job with the original documents,don't listen or you'll end up with fake papers again.

**** A D. N IS RAISED TO BOOST INITIAL BANK PAYMENTS TO A LEVEL THAT WILL BE ACCEPTABLE TO CUSTOM OFFICERS. THE LEAST AMOUNT THAT CAN BE RAISED IS N100,000 BUT IT ALSO DEPENDS ON THE TYPE OF VEHICLE.

After the alert has been erased, the D.N can now be raised.

*** in summary, please note that an outside exit is almost like having fake papers with you, the only genuine paper is the bank teller and acknowledgement slip.
