HOW CAN I CLEAR MY GOODS / CONSIGNMENT IN LAGOS "NIGERIA"

I really want to be brief in dealing with this commonly asked question. Shipping your goods from U.S.A, Canada, Asia, and Europe to Nigeria begins from you.

It is better that you first get the attention of a reliable Shipper/freight agent, whose duty is to advice you in those areas you might want to consider "technical".. We recommend you call Freight and Clearance service section Phone- +234 8032241768 for your shipment from U.S to Nigeria

But before visiting or calling a Freight and Clearance service section, you must get yourself prepared to answer few questions .. Consider it a patient and Doctor transaction.. Freight and Clearance service section needs to know what exactly, before offering his advice / or recommendation on what shipping plan / budget is good for your shipment...

Your Freight and Clearance service section would Ask Questions such as;
1. Nature of Goods / Commodity (i.e, whether personal effects, equipment, household goods, manufacturing plants, Heavy Duty equipment, Chemicals, and or brand in case of Car)
2. Estimate Weight in Kilo OR pound (If no idea, not problems as your shipper would help resolve that later)
3. Country of Origin (i.e. City where the goods are coming from)
4. Preferred mode of Transportation (Air Freight OR Sea Freight)
5. Delivery timeline ( Normal is 5-6days OR Emergency/ express delivery - 2-3days)
6. Delivery Address (i.e, whether Lagos, Abuja, Owerri, P/H, Kano, Osun and so on)

Note: Other relevant question, related to Form "M", RAR, insurance and Invoice are usually reserve for importers of goods for Corporate organizations and merchandise.

For getting cargo and ships cleared in any corner of the world one needs to comply with the said nations rules and regulations and for this one should be familiar with all the rules and required documents that should be required for getting clearance from the clearing dept of that country.
