Comprehensive Customs Clearance Solutions for Importers

Clearing cargo through Nigeria Customs Services (NCS) requires specialized knowledge and coordination, especially given the ever-changing regulatory landscape. Delays, incorrect classification, and missing documentation can result in expensive demurrage fees and lost business opportunities. With Cargoburg, those worries disappear.

Cargoburg Logistics Limited offers a comprehensive customs clearance package, including:

• Import document verification and preparation

• Tariff classification and duty computation

• Pre-Arrival Assessment Report (PAAR) processing

• SONCAP and NAFDAC approvals (where applicable)

• Physical examination coordination and representation

• Duty and tax payment assistance

• Terminal handling and port fee settlements

• Escort and delivery to final destination

Our team of licensed customs clearing agents ensures all documentation is prepared and submitted accurately, streamlining interactions with customs, regulatory bodies, and terminal operators. This thorough, end-to-end approach significantly reduces clearance time, especially at congested ports like Apapa and Tin Can Island.

Moreover, we have the capability to process various types of import declarations, including Form M-based imports, temporary importation, bonded terminal movements, and Free Trade Zone cargo handling. Whether your imports require simple release or complex documentation tied to regulatory approvals, Cargoburg can navigate the process efficiently.

Integrated Freight Forwarding and Logistics Capabilities

Cargoburg is more than just a customs clearance agent—we are a fully integrated logistics solutions provider. By combining customs clearance with freight forwarding, haulage, warehousing, and marine logistics, we eliminate the friction that typically occurs between multiple logistics vendors. Clients enjoy a single point of contact, streamlined communication, and better coordination throughout the cargo lifecycle.

Our freight forwarding team ensures cargo arrives safely from origin ports to Nigerian terminals via air or sea. Upon arrival, our clearance team takes over, liaising with customs and terminal authorities. Once cleared, our dedicated haulage division moves your goods using our modern fleet of trucks, while short- or long-term storage needs are met at our secure warehouses.

This unified, end-to-end logistics chain ensures cargo never gets “stuck in transit,” giving importers the confidence to operate on tighter schedules and higher volumes.
