About Customs Clearance on Travo.ng.
How long does customs clearance take?
With complete, correct documentation, clearance is usually a few days — delays come from missing papers or classification issues, which we handle up front.

Can you estimate my duty before the cargo arrives?
Yes — we classify the goods and estimate duty in advance so there are no surprises at the port.
Which ports do you clear at?
Apapa, Tin Can Island and the international airports, with onward delivery arranged.
