At Top China Forwarder, we deliver professional and cost-effective shipping solutions from China to Nigeria. With Apapa Port and Tin Can Island Port in Lagos serving as major maritime gateways and Murtala Muhammed International Airport handling air cargo, we provide sea freight, air freight, and comprehensive door-to-door services tailored to Nigerian importers.
Sea freight is the most popular and cost-efficient solution. We arrange FCL and LCL shipments to Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports in Lagos, with onward trucking to Abuja, Kano, Port Harcourt, and other regions. Common imports include building materials, machinery, consumer electronics, textiles, and vehicles.
For urgent or high-value cargo, we provide air freight to Murtala Muhammed International Airport (Lagos) and Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (Abuja). This option is suitable for electronics, medical supplies, spare parts, and time-sensitive goods.
We offer complete logistics management: supplier pickup in China, international shipping, customs clearance in Lagos, and inland delivery to destinations across Nigeria.
Best for large imports such as industrial machinery, vehicles, construction equipment, and wholesale consumer goods. Dedicated containers ensure security and reduced handling.
For SMEs, LCL is an affordable option to ship smaller volumes of electronics, clothing, packaged food, and retail products. We consolidate shipments in China for direct delivery to Lagos.
Nationwide pickup in China with inland delivery across Nigeria.
Free consolidation and staging before export.
Highly recommended due to heavy traffic and long transit times at Lagos ports.
Expertise in Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) clearance and import procedures.
Supervised loading in China to ensure accuracy and cargo safety.
Customs clearance includes preparing and submitting required documents, paying duties and taxes, and ensuring regulatory compliance. A professional service like Top China Forwarder manages these tasks, ensuring a smooth process and avoiding delays.
Top China Forwarder provides free warehousing services. Coordinate with their team to store your goods securely. They also offer loading solutions to ensure your items are properly packed and loaded into containers for shipment.
Pickup and delivery services involve collecting your goods from the supplier and transporting them to the port or warehouse. Top China Forwarder ensures timely collection and delivery of your items within China, offering efficient pickup services.
To import goods, identify your products, find reliable suppliers, negotiate terms, understand Nigerian import regulations, obtain necessary licenses, arrange shipping, prepare documentation, handle customs clearance, pay duties and taxes, and arrange distribution and sales within Nigeria.
The cost of shipping a container varies based on container size, shipping method (FCL or LCL), and additional services (insurance, warehousing). A 20-foot container may cost between $1,000 to $2,500 on average. Contact Top China Forwarder for a tailored quote.
