Nigeria Shippers Council have implemented an Advenced Cargo Declaration (ACD) Scheme. The Scheme is based on an internet platform accessed via www.acdnigeria.com

The ACD is aimed at ensuring that:
– All import cargo into Nigeria has Entry Summary Number (ENS)
– All export cargo out Nigeria has Entry Summary Number (EXS)
To ensure compliance, kindly note that for import to Nigeria ENS is expected to be included in all Shipping Instructions submitted as from 17th November 2015. This also applies to export out of Nigeria for which EXS is applicable.

Prior to loading cargo for Nigeria shippers are expected to obtain an Entry Summary Number (ENS) which must be advised to the shipping line agent and incorporated on the bill of lading and manifest by the shipping line agent.

Greenshields Project Cargo is registered on the platform and is able to proceed with ACD for obtaining ENS.
