How much does it cost to ship a 2021 Toyota Highlander from Dubai to Tema?⌄
The total landed cost is approximately $35,478 (about ₦51,443,100). This includes the vehicle price, ocean freight ($2,300), Nigerian import duty ($4,860), the NAC levy ($1,215), VAT, CISS and the other customs charges. Marine insurance is optional and only added if you ask for it.
How is the customs duty calculated?⌄
Nigerian Customs charges 20% of the CIF value (vehicle cost + insurance + freight) as import duty, plus a separate 5% National Automotive Council (NAC) levy on the same base — the NAC levy was cut from 15% to 5% on 1 July 2026. Vehicles over 12 years old incur an additional 35% levy. AFRIKARS uses these exact rates in the estimate above.
How long does shipping take?⌄
Ocean freight from Dubai to Tema takes 25–35 days. Add 3–7 days for clearing at the port. AFRIKARS coordinates door-to-port logistics on both ends.
Can I use AFRIKARS if I already bought the car?⌄
Yes. AFRIKARS handles shipping, customs and clearing as standalone services. We clear on our own customs licence, and coordinate from pickup to delivery, with funds held in escrow by a licensed partner and released as each step is verified.
