1. Customs Clearance for Synthetic Resins and Polymers
The importation of synthetic resins and polymers into Nigeria involves several important steps to ensure compliance with local customs regulations. Cargoburg Logistics acts as your clearing agent, managing the following processes to ensure smooth and fast customs clearance:
HS Code Classification: The first step in clearing synthetic resins and polymers is the correct classification of the products under the Harmonized System (HS) code. Cargoburg’s experts accurately determine the correct HS code for each product, ensuring that it is processed without delay.
Form M and PAAR Processing: Every import to Nigeria requires the submission of Form M (for import registration) and obtaining a Pre-Arrival Assessment Report (PAAR) from the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS). Cargoburg handles the Form M application and PAAR generation, ensuring that your goods can be processed efficiently upon arrival.
Import Duty and Tax Calculation: The Nigerian government imposes duties and taxes on imported synthetic resins and polymers. We ensure that the applicable import duties and taxes are accurately calculated, and we handle all payments to avoid delays during clearance.
Regulatory Approvals: Some synthetic resins and polymers may require additional regulatory approvals from agencies such as the Standards Organization of Nigeria (SON) or the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC). Cargoburg manages the submission and approval processes for all required certifications.
