Frequently asked

How much does it cost to ship a 2023 Mercedes-Benz C-Class from Tilbury to Tema?

The total landed cost is approximately $31,399 (about ₦45,528,550). This includes the vehicle price, ocean freight ($1,450), Nigerian import duty ($4,290), the NAC levy ($1,073), 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 Tilbury 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.
