Do I pay customs duty sending from Algeria to Nigeria?
That depends on the customs relationship between Algeria and Nigeria. Parcels moving inside one customs territory, such as between two EU member states, need no declaration. They attract no import duty and no import VAT.
Where the corridor crosses a customs border, a declaration accompanies every parcel. Booking from Algeria generates the required form from the contents and value you enter. The recipient in Nigeria pays any import duty and local VAT on arrival. Customs calculates both on the declared value. Declare honestly. Understated values are the most common cause of parcels held at the border.
Gifts below the local de-minimis threshold are often exempt from duty. Nigeria sets that threshold, not the carrier. Restrictions on excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco apply on every corridor. They apply even inside the EU.
Keep the commercial invoice or receipt available until the parcel arrives in Nigeria. Customs may ask for proof of value on shipments from Algeria.What cannot be sent from Algeria to Nigeria?
