Clearing your imported cars through the ports, airports, seaports, and border does not come cheap; pay the clearance fees to
- The Nigerian Customs (NCS)
- The carrier of your car to the port, i.e., the shipping company or the airline.
- The terminal where it was offloaded.
- Clearing charges or agent fees.
Furthermore, Nigerian Customs will receive the duty on the imported car. These duties vary by size, capacity, and the year of manufacture of the car.
Nigeria Customs has a fixed import value they place on every vehicle; hence, used and new vehicles will pay a 20% duty, 15% levy, 7% SUR, 0.5% ETL, and 7.5% VAT of the fixed import value. See the CET Tariff Table below
The carrier of your car, for example, a shipping company, will receive their shipping charges. These shipping charges vary only by the weight and size of your vehicle.
Trucks and SUVs attract higher shipping charges. These amount to the total cost of clearing cars in Nigeria.
Nigeria Customs Import Duty On Imported Goods
Whether by a private individual or a commercial entity, import duty and taxes are owed while shipping goods toward Nigeria.
Importantly, the mode in which they value the imported goods is by CIF (cost, insurance, and freight), which signifies that the import duty and taxes due are estimated at the entire shipping value.
This entire shipping value includes the value of the imported goods, the charge of freight, and the cost of insurance.
Besides duty, imports are subject to sales tax and other taxes specified for certain products, such as excise duty, rice levy, automotive levy, sugar levy, and cigarette levy.
Duty Rates
In addition, duty rates in Nigeria vary from 0% to 35%, with the average duty rate at 16.96%. We can import some products free of duty (e.g., books).
Sales Tax
They levied VAT on imports at a standard rate of 7.5% on the sum of the CIF value, duty, excise, and other taxes, if applicable.
Hence, there is no minimum threshold in Nigeria. Therefore, imports are subject to duty and taxes, regardless of their value.

Cost Of Clearing Cars in Nigeria
The cost of clearing cars in Nigeria has changed from 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. The reason for this is the current change in the exchange rate. The exchange rate used by customs is $1 to ₦1,537.82 at this moment. This exchange rate is subject to change at intervals (depending on the strength of ₦). There is also a new VIN valuation policy implemented by customs that has hiked the value of underaged vehicles (vehicles from 2014 downwards), which then increases the total cost to clear vehicles.

Hence, we will keep you informed of any change in the exchange rate, thus affecting the cost of clearing cars in Nigeria.
In addition, this has increased the total duty on all vehicles and other imports.
Nigerian customs have a fixed dollar value for all cars and other imports coming to Nigeria. While they fix this value, the exchange rate affects the cost of clearing cars in Nigeria.
