The Pre-Arrival Assessment Report (PAAR) system is an online
application designed and used by the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) for the
generation of the PAAR. The Nigeria Customs Service receives e-Form M with other necessary
pre-import documents from the Authorized Dealer Bank and carries out
preliminary preview using the information provided. The e-Form M where accepted
is registered on the system by the NCS. Read also: 15 important things to know about Form M
The
following are therefore the steps in submitting your PAAR consignment form
online:
1.
Open a new PAAR Consignment form: On the left NCS Services menu, open the PAAR
Consignment’s dropdown menu and select the Fill operation.
2.
Automatically pre-fill the PAAR Consignment form with e-Form M data: On Header
Tab’s Form M segment, enter the BA number of the corresponding form M, then
click on the load icon. Form M data will be automatically loaded into the PAAR
Consignment blank form.
3.
Load voyage information from the e-Bill of Lading: In the Transport Tab, once
you have keyed-in Transport Document Number & date, Voyage number and
Departure Date, click on the Load BL icon. All B/L details, including the list
of containers will be automatically loaded into the PAAR Consignment’s
corresponding fields.
4.
Fill remaining data elements from the various tabs of the PAAR Consignment form:
Complete the all data entries required in all Tabs: Header, Names and Parties,
Transport, Financial and Goods, and scan and attach required final documents,
indicating proper document types using the Attachment tab.
5.
Edit items: Goods tab: Some of the items inherited from the form M may not be
part of the consignment, or be of a lesser quantity and therefore value. This
is particularly the case for partial shipments. Items loaded from the form M
can be edited in the Goods tab, in the goods summary table, using the
Edit/Delete button.
6.
Check the PAAR Consignment form: You can verify at any time the correctness of
your data by clicking on the Verify ( ) button. Eventual errors will be listed
on the top of the page and will have to be corrected before submission.
7.
Save your work in progress: You can export the PAAR Consignment form being
prepared into an XML file that will be stored locally on your computer, using
the Export XML button (use the Import XML button to reload it). You can also
save it on the NSW Trade Portal server, using the Store button. A Consignment number
is assigned to your document, for further retrieval using the “Search” function
in the PAAR Consignment dropdown menu. Stored consignments can be updated,
submitted or deleted.
8.
Submit the PAAR Consignment form: After having completed the all data entries
of PAAR Consignment Form and attached necessary scanned documents, click on the
Submit ( ) button. The system will automatically assign a PAAR Consignment
number, date and type that will be displayed on the Header tab. The PAAR
Consignment form and all attached documents becomes immediately available to
Bank’s Validator for final quality check.
