Changes in International Shipping Laws
For those international car shipping companies shipping cars overseas to Nigeria, please be advised that beginning May 1st, 2014; there will be a change in the law for Shipping Cars to Nigeria. Effective May 1st, 2014, Nigerian Customs has implemented a new regulation requiring a more comprehensive manifest for every vehicle imported into Nigeria. This means that international car shipping companies will now have to provide additional information such as the chassis number, model and make of the vehicle, year of manufacture, and the VIN number (Vehicle Identification Number). The aim of this new regulation is to enhance transparency and accountability in the importation process, as well as to streamline the customs clearance process. As a reliable international car shipping company, we understand the importance of complying with these regulations and will work closely with Nigerian Customs to ensure that all necessary information is provided promptly and accurately.
Here is the additional information that will be required:
- Chassis Number
- Model & Make of Vehicle

Also, please note that only vehicles 15 years old or newer will be allowed into Nigeria.
