8 Years Or 5 Years On Limitation For Car Importing To Nigeria? by layifioren(m): 1:32am On Feb 28, 2007 |
I heard from a source that the 8 year boundary for car importation to Nigeria has been changed to 5 years i.e you can't import cars older than five years. Can someone please shed more light on this as I know someone who is thinking of shipping a 2001 Mazda Tribute to Nigeria. Also, how much would this vehicle worth in Nigeria? |

Layi If you want to sell it fast, you should be looking about N1.8-N2.2 Million. It will cost you about $1500 to ship and another N350k to Clear customs. Make sure it is worth you trouble. And yes you can ship cars 8yrs or Younger to Nigeria. 1999 and Up!! |

@user but considering the average nigerian living in this country where car financing doesn't really work for certain car budgets, i think it still isn't a bad idea. even at that, people still bring in cars of 9yrs and older from Benin/Togo/Ghana. |

I think I understand your point of view but it wasnt just cars that were banned then. Used refridgerators, air conditioners etc were also on the list and believe me those items were turning our major cities into junkyards. Even now they are still smuggled in somehow but the influx is unlike when it was totally legal. IBB Fan:That was confusing, what exactly did u mean? |

@user oops! i was just trying to say it isn't a bad idea to still allow the car importations of 8yrs and older. the authorities would have just been checking the status of such cars coming in and faced the ban on the "scraps". after all, some new model "melons" still come into the country. |

Yeah your conception is right, but can we trust naija authorities? Its almost pointless to rely on the discretion of govt officials, thats why in naija we either allow something. . . or ban it outright, no in-betweens Imagine what'll happen in that case, people bringing crappy vehicles and paying bribes to pass through the checks . . . . |
