Customs Clearance Lagos

Cargoburg Logistics Limited is a trusted leader in customs clearance in Lagos, offering efficient, compliant, and professional import clearing solutions tailored to meet the needs of businesses of all sizes. As one of Nigeria’s most respected logistics companies, Cargoburg has built a solid reputation for excellence in the import-export industry through our unwavering commitment to quality service, technical expertise, and client satisfaction.

We are not only a licensed customs clearing and forwarding agency; we are also a full-service logistics provider, operating as a freight forwarder, freight broker, warehouse operator, and drayage carrier. With end-to-end service offerings that include air freight, sea freight forwarding, project logistics, haulage, warehousing, and marine services, Cargoburg ensures a smooth and timely flow of goods from any global origin to your preferred Nigerian destination.

Our professional team is dedicated to providing you with the most reliable and cost-effective solutions for navigating the often complex and time-sensitive customs procedures in Nigeria. With decades of experience and advanced logistics technologies, we make customs clearance simple, transparent, and fast.

Nationwide Coverage Across Major Nigerian Ports

While our customs clearance operations in Lagos are among the most active and efficient, Cargoburg Logistics Limited proudly extends its reach to all major port cities in Nigeria. Our services are available in:

• Lagos (Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports)

• Port Harcourt (Onne and Port Harcourt Wharf)

• Tin Can Island (including Roll-On/Roll-Off Terminals)
