16 October 2026 - Naira Briefing

The process

  • Buy and ship — RoRo or container, priced in dollars.
  • Clear at the port — duty and charges on the customs value.
  • Estimate the total — use our import landing-cost calculator.

The dollar cost

Because every step is dollar-linked, the exchange rate drives the final naira cost — the same force behind car prices. Budget for duty and clearing, not just the car and freight, and plan your FX; our calculator gives a working estimate.
