Work out your own numbers before you ask anyone
Four free tools that answer the questions people normally have to phone up for: what it will cost, whether it will fit, whether you are allowed to send it, and what Customs will charge at the other end. No sign-up, no email required.
They work in a natural order. Start with the Can I Send It? checker — a minute spent here saves losing a barrel at the port, because several everyday items (cooking oil, retail-pack soap, common tablets like paracetamol) are prohibited imports even in personal shipments.
Once you know everything can travel, the barrel planner tells you whether it fits in one drum or two — weight usually runs out before space does, which surprises almost everyone. Then the price list gives you every air and sea rate in one place, and the quote form prices your actual shipment.
The import duty calculator stands apart: it's for commercial goods and vehicles, where Nigeria Customs charges duty on arrival. If you're buying a car to ship, run the numbers on the exact vehicle before you buy it — the duty band and the 12-year age rule catch out more first-time importers than anything else on this route.
Our guides explain the thinking behind the numbers — air versus sea, how volumetric weight works, how to pack a barrel, and when the seasonal deadlines fall.
