Estimates are based on the ECOWAS CET 2022–2026 tariff bands and Nigeria's published import charges (7.5% VAT, 7% surcharge, 0.5% ETLS, 4% FOB charge) as at 2026. Your official assessment is issued by the Nigeria Customs Service via PAAR and may differ by HS classification, valuation and current exchange rate. Excludes port, terminal, shipping-line and agency fees. Wigmore Trading is an independent company and is not affiliated with the Nigeria Customs Service.
Our licensed clearing partners process shipments through Apapa, Tin Can and Lekki Deep Sea Port every working day — we know exactly how assessments are raised, queried and resolved.
Form M, PAAR, NAFDAC, SONCAP, quarantine — we work with Nigeria Customs Service processes and regulator requirements day in, day out, so your file moves instead of sitting.
Wrong classification is the most expensive mistake in Nigerian importing — in both directions. We verify your HS code before shipment so you pay what the tariff actually says.
Duty deferment through our Lekki Free Zone hub, ECOWAS ETLS origin benefits, exemption schemes for machinery and pharma — if the law gives you a break, we make sure you get it.
Paying ₦280k duty on ₦800k of goods — after they've shipped — is how importers get burned once and never import again. We give you a fixed landed-cost quote before your goods move, so the number you budget is the number you pay.
A parcel sitting silent in a Lagos warehouse while support ignores your calls is the single most common importing horror story. Every Wigmore shipment sends you WhatsApp milestone alerts at each stage — you'll never have to ask "where's my container?"
Phones that vanish in inspection, cargo that never arrives — even with big-name carriers. Our insured lane covers high-value cargo at declared value, with sealed handling, photographed check-in and accountability at every hand-off.
The official prohibition rules are hard to find, harder to read, and getting them wrong means seizure. That's literally why this calculator exists — and before anything ships, we screen your exact HS codes against the current list.
Every day your container sits, the port charges you. Documentation prepared before vessel arrival and same-day processing at Lekki mean your goods move, not sit.
Paying the full customs bill on landing strangles cash flow. Our Lekki Free Zone hub lets you defer duty and release stock in tranches, paying only as you sell.
Most logistics companies make you chase them. We message you first. Every Wigmore shipment comes with WhatsApp milestone alerts at each stage of its journey — and a human Exception Desk that tells you about delays before you feel them.
Send us your product list and volumes on WhatsApp — we'll confirm classification, screen for prohibitions, and return a full landed-cost quote with clearing handled end to end.
