Customs
The receiver in Nigeria will need to be registered with the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) and have a Tax Identification Number (TIN). No customs clearance can take place without this TIN number and failure to obtain the TIN number before the arrival of the consignment will result in delays and potential additional costs.
Passports, credit cards, jewellery, cosmetics, toiletries, etc are prohibited for import into Nigeria.
Before sending your parcel to Nigeria, please make sure that none of the items in your parcels contravene the restrictions imposed by customs at destination.

Documents Needed
After you have paid for a shipping service to Nigeria, you will be redirected
to a page where you can download and print out the relevant shipping labels, i.e
AWB (Courier Air Waybills - barcode) - Proforma or Commercial invoice - Address label.
The above documents are standard for any international shipment.
Please note, if additional documentation is required for the import of any particular item, it is the
customer's responsibility to provide them at destination.
Restrictions
Goods travelling by 'Cargo' are subject to different restrictions to those travelling as carry-on
luggage.
A shipment to Nigeria is deemed unacceptable if: it is classified as
hazardous material, dangerous goods, prohibited or restricted articles by IATA (International Air
Transport Association), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation) or other relevant organisation.
Many items which appear harmless in everyday use can pose danger on air transport and are consequently
forbidden for transport.
The following page displays a sampling of common prohibited and restricted goods.

Packing Advice
Your parcel must be boxed and well packaged. This will reduce the risk of damage to any item during
transit or any associated automated distribution process.
Please be aware the item is not taken by hand from collection to destination and will visit many sorted
facilities on its journey. For that reason, you need to protect the items to ensure they make it from A
to B safely.
The following packaging guidelines are recommendations to assist you in packaging your shipment:

Terms & Conditions and subject to your
parcel passing minimum packaging requirements.
Please note that the declared value for customs purposes is not related to the declared value selected

When you've worked extensively in the world of international shipping for as many years as we have, you're keenly aware that there are certain things a customer takes for granted when they're booking a Kaduna package delivery. Besides offering value for money and a firm commitment to processing your Kaduna shipping with the highest level of care and consideration, we aim to make the experience of arranging a Kaduna parcel delivery as quick and simple as it possibly can be.
Kaduna is a city in central Nigeria, which, thanks to its geographical positioning and as a junction of important road and rail links, is a vital shipping and transportation centre for the entire country. Kaduna is also key to the aluminium, petroleum, textiles and steel manufacturing industry in Nigeria. Economics aside, Kaduna also thrives as a national centre for higher education, being home to Kaduna Polytechnic and Ahmadu Bello University amongst others. Kaduna is also famous for the production of distinctive local pottery made by the Nok, an ancient culture which pre-dates the city's more dominant cultures and still survives in the region to this day.
No matter what it is you want shipping to Kaduna, either a personal family gift or something of vital commercial importance, RapidParcel.com is the first and only place worth looking when trying to track down a deal that suits both your pocket and your specific shipping needs. We work for corporate customers who need to arrange shipping to Kaduna on either a repeat basis or on a large scale, often both, and also individuals, for whom this package delivery to Kaduna may well be the first and possibly the only time they have to organise international shipping. In both cases we want to be certain that the process of organising Kaduna shipping is as simple and easy as possible.
For commercial customers, it's important that this regular task uses up little of the time that could be better spent on activities that will generate greater profits, while personal customers will be happy to find just how easy it is to book a parcel delivery to Kaduna. Just six simple steps must be completed for you to send your shipping to Kaduna on its way, with the first step being to make a choice from our list of top-class couriers and the exclusive deals they offer, choosing the company and price that suit you best. We've taken the toil out of making a package delivery to Kaduna and to anywhere else in Nigeria, so the same simple process applies to sending a parcel delivery to Ibadan or a package delivery to Kano. RapidParcel.com is designed with your ease of use at the heart of organising every Kaduna package delivery.
