Service Description: Professional Cargo Valuation by Cargoburg

Valuation plays a critical role in global trade and import logistics. Accurate cargo valuation not only ensures compliance with Nigeria Customs regulations but also directly impacts the calculation of import duties, VAT, excise taxes, and insurance premiums. At Cargoburg Logistics, we offer a complete cargo valuation service that supports importers with:

  • Customs Valuation

  • Insurance Valuation

  • Commercial Valuation for Trade

  • Market Valuation

  • Dispute Resolution and Appeal Support

1. Customs Valuation for Accurate Import Duties

Our customs valuation service ensures that all imported goods are assessed in accordance with Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) valuation rules, particularly the World Trade Organization (WTO) Valuation Agreement, which Nigeria adopts. We handle classification using the Harmonized System (HS) codes and determine transaction values based on invoice verification, freight costs, and applicable duty structures.

By working with Cargoburg, clients reduce the risk of under- or overvaluation, which can lead to heavy fines, delayed clearance, or seizure. Our customs brokers are trained in cross-border valuation practices, ensuring full compliance and documentation accuracy.

2. Insurance Valuation for Complete Cargo Protection

In the event of damage, loss, or theft during transportation, having a correct valuation ensures that your insurance claim is honored in full. Cargoburg’s valuation team conducts accurate assessments of goods before transit, assigning the appropriate value based on product condition, quantity, and prevailing market rates. We work with top cargo insurance providers to ensure your shipments are covered according to verified valuations.

Whether your goods are shipped via sea, air, or road, our insurance valuation minimizes risk and ensures you receive fair compensation in case of unexpected disruptions.

3. Commercial Valuation for Trade and Retailers

Importers who plan to sell goods locally in Nigeria rely on fair market valuations to determine pricing, retail margins, and inventory value. At Cargoburg, we offer commercial valuation reports that reflect real-time pricing for similar goods in the Nigerian market. This is particularly beneficial for global retailers, FMCG importers, and electronics distributors aiming for compliance with both Nigerian tax regulations and market positioning.

With access to current trade data and commodity indexes, our valuation reports are both timely and precise, helping businesses plan pricing strategies, manage inventory costs, and enhance competitiveness.

4. Dispute Resolution and Valuation Appeals

If your shipment’s declared value is disputed by customs or undervalued by an external authority, Cargoburg provides full support for lodging appeals and submitting additional documentation. Our experienced team prepares detailed audit trails, transactional history, comparable value analysis, and formal representations to support valuation disputes.

Our clients benefit from reduced downtime and faster conflict resolution, allowing their goods to be cleared with minimal disruption.

Why Valuation Matters in Freight Forwarding

✔️ Compliance with Customs Law

Undervalued or incorrectly declared goods can result in clearance delays, seizure, or severe penalties. With Cargoburg’s valuation expertise, every shipment is aligned with regulatory expectations from the start.

✔️ Accurate Duty and Tax Payments

Since valuation determines the amount you pay in duties and taxes, getting it right can result in substantial savings and prevent costly overpayments. Our professionals ensure clients never pay more—or less—than they should.

✔️ Smooth Insurance Claims

Inaccurate or missing valuation records can result in partial or denied insurance claims. Our valuation ensures your cargo is fully covered, so in the event of loss or damage, your claim is quick and undisputed.

✔️ Data-Driven Business Decisions

Accurate cargo valuation helps businesses plan better, set realistic budgets, and optimize pricing. Whether you’re managing procurement or preparing for audits, our valuation records give you clarity.

✔️ Peace of Mind
