In the ever-evolving landscape of international trade, customs compliance has become a vital pillar of successful import and export operations. At Cargoburg Logistics Limited, we specialize in providing expert customs compliance services tailored to meet the strict regulatory requirements of Nigerian ports and international trade laws. As a licensed customs clearing agent and freight forwarding leader in Nigeria, Cargoburg guarantees your shipments clear customs efficiently, legally, and without costly delays.

Customs regulations in Nigeria are complex and continually changing, affecting tariffs, duties, taxes, and required documentation.

Cargoburg’s customs compliance services are available at all major Nigerian seaports, including:

  • Lagos (Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports)

  • Port Harcourt

  • Onne

  • Warri

Our extensive coverage means whether your cargo arrives in the commercial hub of Lagos or the oil and gas gateways of Port Harcourt and Onne, Cargoburg ensures full compliance with local customs regulations and international trade standards.

What is Customs Compliance and Why It Matters?

Customs compliance refers to adhering strictly to all customs laws, rules, and regulations governing the import and export of goods. It involves:

  • Correct classification of goods using the Harmonized System (HS) codes

  • Accurate declaration of shipment value, origin, and contents

  • Proper licensing and certification (SONCAP, NAFDAC, NAQS, etc.)

  • Timely submission of customs documentation (Form M, Bill of Lading, Invoice, etc.)

  • Payment of duties, tariffs, taxes, and fees

  • Compliance with import/export restrictions and prohibitions

Failure to comply can lead to costly penalties, shipment holds, or even legal action. That’s why companies entrust Cargoburg’s experienced customs compliance team to manage these critical processes, ensuring your cargo moves smoothly through customs.

We prepare and submit all required documentation, including:

  • Form M applications

  • Bill of Lading and Airway Bills

  • Commercial Invoices and Packing Lists

By ensuring documents are error-free and submitted promptly, we prevent clearance delays and demurrage costs.

4. Duty and Tax Calculation & Payment

Cargoburg calculates the precise amount of customs duties, levies, and taxes applicable to your shipment, taking into account tariff schedules, exemptions, and trade agreements. We manage payment processes so that cargo clearance is seamless.

5. Risk Management and Audits
