At Cargoburg, we understand that international retailers face unique challenges when importing goods into Nigeria. From compliance with Nigerian regulations to managing complex documentation, our services are designed to take the burden off your shoulders, ensuring a seamless experience.

1. Customs Clearance

One of the most critical aspects of logistics is ensuring your goods pass through customs quickly and efficiently. Our customs clearing service is tailored to the unique requirements of international retailers, ensuring that all paperwork is in order, regulatory requirements are met, and your goods clear Nigerian customs without delays.

• Preparation of Required Documents: We handle all documentation, including import declaration forms (IDF), proforma invoices, bill of lading, and NAFDAC certification where necessary.

• Customs Duty Calculation: We ensure your goods are classified correctly and calculate the duty and taxes based on the accurate tariff rates, optimizing your costs.

• Special Permits and Certifications: For goods like medicines, electronics, or food products, we handle the required regulatory approvals, including NAFDAC registration and SONCAP certification.

By streamlining the customs clearance process, we help you avoid unnecessary delays and ensure your goods arrive on time, every time.

2. Freight Forwarding Services
