Nigeria · Customs planning

Know the cost.
Verify the classification.

Build a landed-cost worksheet from the HS duty rate and quotes you have actually checked. The calculator applies Nigeria's 7.5% standard VAT to the statutory import base, but it never guesses your product classification or customs exchange rate.

No account, upload or network calculation

The calculation and PDF run in this browser. This page does not save values to local storage or send them to AI, email, analytics, or a server.

Sharing is route-only

The share action sends the calculator URL without item values, HS codes, rates or quotes.

PDF is a worksheet, not an assessment

The downloaded report repeats your inputs and the official-verification warning so it cannot be mistaken for an NCS document.

Estimate landed cost before you import

Quick answer

Import costs across Africa usually start with CIF, then stack customs duty, VAT, and market-specific levies. If you only budget for the headline duty rate, you usually underprice the true landed cost.

What costs are usually missed on import budgets?
Freight, insurance, customs levies, VAT on a duty-inclusive base, port charges, and FX swings are the most common blind spots.
When should I use the calculator?
Use it before placing the order, again when freight is confirmed, and once more before final customs clearance.
