Import Documentation for Flour Shipments – What Cargoburg Offers
Importing flour into Nigeria involves multiple regulatory requirements overseen by agencies like NAFDAC (National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control) and SON (Standards Organisation of Nigeria). As an experienced logistics company, Cargoburg Nigeria manages all aspects of import documentation to ensure compliance and fast processing.
End-to-End Regulatory Documentation Support
Flour is classified as a food product and must adhere to Nigerian health, safety, and quality control standards. Our documentation process includes:
Obtaining Import Permits: We secure mandatory NAFDAC approvals and permits for every flour consignment, helping our clients comply with food safety laws.
Form M Processing: Cargoburg assists in the accurate preparation and submission of Form M, which is a pre-import requirement through the Central Bank of Nigeria.
PAAR (Pre-Arrival Assessment Report): We liaise with Nigeria Customs to generate the PAAR document, ensuring transparency in tariff application and duty payments.
SONCAP Certification: We manage the acquisition of SON conformity certificates to ensure flour shipments meet Nigeria’s technical and packaging standards.
Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoices & Packing Lists: Our team verifies and files all relevant shipping documents, guaranteeing accurate customs declarations.
We also guide clients through registration, labeling, and health standards that must be met before flour products are cleared for market sale in Nigeria.

Customs Duty Assessment and Payment Coordination
