Hello. I need advise from NL users that have the experience pls:

Am about to order some goods from Japan and China. How do I get collect them at the ports? I have never cleared any item before so I dont even have the faintest idea on what to expect. All I'v heard is how goods get missing, and how custom officers size containers and cratess demanding money before release and some confisticated even for good. I'd like to be well informed before placing my orders.

Any info on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I understand ur point but for you to clear ur goods from the port, the first thing u need to do is get in touch with the company in japan telling them to send u a manifest on the goods then all u need next is a clearing agent. u can't just go to the port to collect ur goods u need a custom license agent to do that. well am a clearing agent base in lagos and i can help u to clear the goods at an affordable rate all u need to do is give me a call on 07028222847 and u can also check our website on www.abelabosede.com for more info.
thanks

Thanks kenex.
This is getting clearer now. In other words I cannot clear goods myself. I have to employ the services of a clearing agent?
