Niger International Moving Services

Could be you are a corporate dealer and would like to import your fleet of cars or you are an individual relocating to other parts of Niger or abroad. You have all kinds of luggage to move; you even have a family to move with and are contemplating on leaving them behind due to logistics. Getting the right documents from the ministry of immigration is a nightmare. That is why you need a professional International mover who will walk with you from start to finish. A-1 Auto Transport has done both local and international moving for over two decades now.

How Much Does It Cost to Move to Niger?

The cost of moving internationally to Niger can range anywhere from $2,000-$12,000 depending on a variety of factors such as the size of move, total distance, route, transportation method, and current market trends.

There are numerous additional factors that influence the cost of shipping household items to Niger in addition to the size of the house that must be emptied before export. In order to export a two-bedroom house to Niger, you will have to pay between $3900 and $8100.

There are a number of other factors that should be taken into account, in addition to the size of the house. There are a number of important points such as international exporters you need to consider and the packing and unpacking of your goods. The lawyer who will represent you is also crucial.

Packing and Unpacking

There may be some moving companies that charge for packing and unloading, but not all of them do. The idea of moving overseas is typical for people who are planning to migrate. The process of clearing international shipments is very important. Besides ensuring the authenticity of imported goods, a moving company should also prevent the delivery of any illicit items.

Due to this fact, many moving companies pack and unpack their own items. It is likely that their company would suffer if their company was penalized for exporting illegal items. There may be additional expenses associated with this service. In the event that you decide to package your own items in an effort to save money, you are still required to get packing materials.

Lawyer

A transfer to another country can be confusing and difficult when it comes to documentation. Legal counsel is frequently sought in such cases. An attorney handles these matters. It will make the process go much more smoothly and quickly with their knowledge on hand. The service will cost money, however. The cost of hiring an experienced lawyer may vary depending on where you live and whether you select hourly or case-by-case representation.

International Shipping

Planning ahead is key to successfully crossing a foreign border. Loading the items into the vehicle is only the first step. International relocation will be a breeze if you pick a reputable moving company. Shipping internationally will be the most expensive expense. It can cost up to $10,000 to do such.

The import duties you’ll pay for household goods

It’s important to note before discussing any duties you’ll face, that the U.S. State Department currently has a Level 3 Travel Advisory in place for Niger. This means that they recommend reconsidering your travel plans to the country. The reasons given are the terrori1sm and crime (especially violent crime) which is present in Niger at this time (1).

Duty Exemption is Available

If you still plan to go ahead with your move, you’ll be pleased to learn that customs is kind enough to extend import duty exemption. To be eligible, your household items must have been purchased at least six months ago. You’re also required to have personally used them during this time, and to have resided outside of Niger for the last 12 months. Even if you meet these criteria, you still must have a Certificate for Free Entry issued by the Head Office of customs. If duty is waived on your shipment, then you won’t be permitted to sell, lend out to others or get rid of these goods while you’re in the country (2).

A Separate Tax Still Applies

Bear in mind that a government or statistical tax is still levied on duty-free shipments. Different sources list varying rates for this tax, with the International Association of Movers stating that it is 2% of the shipment’s CIF value (3). Another trusted source holds that the tax rate is 5% instead - meaning you should verify which is correct by speaking with customs. You should also know, that it’s possible to avoid paying this tax, but only if you’re a member of an organization that’s been granted tax exoneration by the government (4).

The import documents you’ll need for household goods

You must have a full packing list, as well as a separate detailed inventory that includes values. This is to be written in French and you must sign and date it. Also required is your passport, Original Bill of Lading or Air Waybill and a Non-Sale Certificate confirming that you won’t transfer ownership of any duty-free items while in Niger. A Resident Permit, Work Permit and Letter of Employment may all be necessary - or just one of these documents may suffice (5).

A Certificate of Change of Residence issued by city hall or the municipal authority in your origin city, is also mandatory documentation. If you wish to have an agent work with customs on your behalf, then a Power of Attorney must be filed. It appears that an International Health Certificate which proves that you’ve received a vaccination for yellow fever is also a required form (6).

The import duties you’ll pay for a vehicle

Unfortunately, the well-informed sources consulted, indicate that no duty exemption for vehicle imports is offered by Niger. You should be prepared to pay the going duty rate, which is currently set at 57% of the CIF value. This is the combined amount of the vehicle’s value, along with the cost to ship and insure it (7).

Just as with your household goods, an additional statistical tax of 5% is also levied by customs. It has been reported that customs may be flexible on these import fees, and you may be able to obtain a cheaper rate (8).

Also, there is some conflicting information available, concerning exactly how the duty rate is calculated. It may be dependant on certain factors about your vehicle, such as the year of manufacture and engine size (in addition to the CIF value) (9). Or, import duty may be based upon the vehicle’s weight instead (10). In order to clear up any confusion, it’s best that you consult customs to learn which information is accurate.

The import documents you’ll need for a vehicle

When shipping a vehicle to Niger, you must have your passport, purchase receipt and proof of insurance coverage. Documents confirming your ownership of the vehicle are also required (11). Customs must be given a Change of Residence Certificate and the Original Bill of Lading (or possibly the Air Waybill). The OBL must list certain details, such as the make, model, chassis and engine numbers, year and the engine size (12). The vehicle’s title and registration from the origin country and your driver’s license are also required. Finally, the log book for the vehicle may be requested by customs (13).

Customs regulations are subject to change at any time, and the above list also isn’t comprehensive. This means that while planning your move to Niger, it’s important that you take the time to speak with customs. They can provide the latest information about the requirements for your particular shipments.
