Buying Electronics From Abroad? Is It Worth It? by niyooo(m): 12:25pm On Dec 07, 2011 |
Hi folks, Don't know where else to post this but I just want to find out from those that know. Does it make sense getting electronics from abroad? Will Nigeria customs not disturb the person at the airports? By electronics, I mean personal stuff for myself and not for sale. Stuff like TV, Home theater etc. Your thoughts and advise would be appreciated. Thanks. |

Hello, once they are not contraband items, there's no problem, you only have to pay the appropriate custom dutties and that depend on the prices of the items, which you can do yourself some little good by having relatively low prices written on the receipts. |

FAST-LINK: IDEALLY, if you are not buying for sale (maybe one pieces each), you are not expected to pay custom duties because they can be classified as your personal effect especially if you have stayed 'long' abroad. However, knowing Nigerians, everyone will be looking to extort money from you ![]() |
