Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to import a vehicle to Nigeria?
Standard transit from Shanghai to Apapa Port, Lagos is 25–35 days by RoRo vessel. Total timeline from order confirmation to delivery — including SON documentation, NCS customs clearance, and port release — is typically 8–12 weeks.
What is included in your Nigeria import pricing?
Every quote includes factory vehicle price, pre-shipment inspection, export documentation, port handling in China, ocean freight, and cargo insurance. Nigerian import duties — Customs Duty, VAT, and CISS levy — are calculated separately and disclosed in full before you commit.
Do you handle Nigerian import documentation and customs?
We prepare all China-side export documentation required for your NCS import declaration, including the commercial invoice, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and SON conformity files. We also recommend experienced customs agents at Apapa and Tin Can Island ports for final clearance.
Are vehicles inspected before shipping to Nigeria?
Yes. Every vehicle undergoes a comprehensive pre-shipment inspection by a certified independent third-party inspector. You receive a 10–15 page report, 30+ photographs, and a video walkthrough confirming SON-compliant roadworthy condition before loading.
Do you offer warranty coverage on imported vehicles?
Yes. All vehicles include a standard 12-month mechanical warranty covering major powertrain components. Extended warranties of 24 or 36 months are available. Claims are processed through Chinese Car in Nigeria at sales@evsnigeria.com with a 48-hour response guarantee.
