Customs and VAT for Nigeria
Nigeria charges 7.5% VAT plus duty by category (typically 10–35%). The customs process is notoriously slow and often complicated. High risk of loss or fraud via regular post — for valuable parcels use only DHL Express or UPS with dedicated customs assistance. Lagos and Abuja are the main logistics hubs.
