ProtectMyMoney: Basically , vehicles like Lexus has so much of value placed on it . The customs looks at the MRSP before they give valuation. .And that is 30% which they use to arrive at . |
Re: Total Cost Of Clearing A Vehicle In Nigeria by aspiring44: 9:41am On Dec 01, 2019 |
@protectmymoney With 10million you can clear the 2018 Lexus out . With 8.5million. You can clear the 2017 out.. Just go and meet the DC and get a good vAQaluation and you won't regret doing that The shipping line is equally important . what is applicable at sallaum as regard valuation , is different from what you will get at Grimaldi . Sallaum "s valuation is always higher than Grimaldi's valuation. |

aspiring44: Thank you for your input above, but your summations appear faulty if the vehicle is not a brand new car and you have not told me how much will show on paper. Inside Life gives me the knowledge to know that 35% duty applies to Value (purchase price of car) if it is a used car by Mileage 7% surcharge 5% vat 0.5% Ess I can show you how customs calculate their duty on here if you want me to...but what i don't get is why you have not shown reason you need 10m and 8.5m to clear 2018 and 2017 Lexus if they are not brand new.

I await your response You are quite right with your analysis . very undisputable. What the custom usually do is to multiply the cost of the car For example The supposed cost of 2018 Lexus 470 it Hovers between US$72,900 to 84,000 So with the above thet will arrive at 72,900* 363*= 26million *30% and this is what they refer to as their compromise The total duty will be 7.9million That gives you lkie 7,9milllion ..the other monies will go into SSS, , releasing , gate control., shipping + terminal charges This is the way they will calculate it for you. Go and meet any valuation officer . At best see the DC valuation. |

[quote author=aspiring44 post=84536200][/quote] Your recent summation is still faulty. Customs do not use 363 to calculate us dollar exchange rate.. Official Customs exchange rate is 306 naira to 1 usd What i know is that duty is calculated based on the purchase price of the car if the vehicle is used, and not assumed value just because the car is 2018 or 2017 . A Lexus that is 2017 and has 50,000miles is not same as that of 2017 with only 2000 miles. 1 Like |

Sorry , I meant 306 in that . moreover custom has a template on how they arrive at their valuation . if its PAAR job wie will know what to arrive at duty base components. And they don't use mileage in arriving at their valuation . Please just clear your doubt by seeing the DC on valuation For instance , any car from 2006 to 2010 This is how I calculate my duty on Corolla 2006 . 232* 1281 which gives you a total duty to be paid I will try to get the template valuation to a serve as a guide for us |

[quote author=aspiring44 post=84537947][/quote] "And they don't use mileage in arriving at their valuation" Reference your above, one fact i know is that : Any vehicle no matter the year, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 that is more than 3000 miles is classified as a used car. Used car attracts 35% duty and no levy. Any vehicle even if it is 2015 and the mileage is less than 3000 miles is classified as a new car. New car you must pay 35% duty and 35% levy I stand for you to dispute my facts above Awaiting your response. 1 Like |

Re: Total Cost Of Clearing A Vehicle In Nigeria by ProtectMyMoney: 11:51pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
aspiring44: I am not bursting any brain ..it's a known fact that no clearing agent will tell the customers these secrets, likewise it is a known fact that no clearing agent will tell the customer that what is the most important thing is how much is the correct amount that will show for paper and it is a known fact that no clearing agent will tell the customer that they can walk into any bank to pay their custom duty themselves after they receive the valuation from customs and then give the payment teller to the clearing agent It is a known fact that the cost of clearing a car is the correct amount showing on paper. Anything more than that does not have account. That is when you will hear greasing palms etc etc. I stand to be disputed with my above facts I await your response. 3 Likes |

ProtectMyMoney: Your facts are good to go with . But I will dispute you in a way that not all agent will tell you that you Dont have the right to pay your duty. The right is basically yours to walk intto any bank and pay your duty . If you can clear a vehicle out without the usual greasing of palms . in fact Nigeria would be much more better . |
Re: Total Cost Of Clearing A Vehicle In Nigeria by aspiring44: 7:46am On Dec 02, 2019 |
@ protectmymoney. You are quite right but the fact remains that if you have to do things to the letter . one will definitely pay a price on demurrage. I once worked with a manufacturing firm far back in year 2000. The clearing agent informed my management that what is holding the container is the NDLEA and I was summoned by the management to look into the issue. All other agencies have been signed just the NDLEA and before they could release it that will should pay 50k . Alas , I met with the NDLEA and he asked a lot of question which I answered correctly and he even said if they should bring their dogs to sniff the container I told him we can re- book for examination . Lo and behold I didn't part with any dime. It's always good stand your ground once your conscience is clear that you have done the statutory things. No one will fault you on that. Another case in point is a chemical I ought to clear out and it was only the gate that should allow me to go but he insiisted that my duty should have been 10% and not 5% that I paid if not because of my chairman that knew their bigger boss at Abuja . Eventually , the goods were released without paying a dime. If you can do the time with them and stand to be corrected they will respect you for that, but clearing agents sheepishly swallowed what is shoved down their throat. In essence , we should all brace up and challenge the status quo . |

aspiring44: Thank you for your inputs. I get alarmed when agents quote costs of clearing vehicles from 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 at ridiculous prices eg 9m , 10m, 12m, etc etc when the car is classified as used car and not a brand new car. This to me seems like total ripoff of customers. 2 Likes |

This to me seems like total ripoff of customers. You are right . The more reason you have to get the valuation done yourself and you surely be at peace. Just last week I gave a quote and the person giving me the job said my quote is too low..imagine........ Whatever I gain from a transaction is good enough . it does not necessarily have to be a do or die affair , its better to make little gains and increase clientele and be truthful than to make gains that won't give you peace at the end of the day 1 Like |

ETWs: Capital No You can only pay duty . You leave the rest for clearing agent to do for you. The clearing agent is licensed to broker between the custom and importer .. If you are a very big importer and you see the need to get a license . You can apply for self clearance with Nigeria custom service. |
