Breaking: Customs removes ban on importation of rice, re-introduces import duty.

-

Wale Adeniyi, the spokesperson of the Nigeria Customs Service has revealed that the

Comptroller-General of the body, Colonel Hameed Ali (rtd), has removed the ban on importation of

rice.


He also stated in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the import duty

payment at land borders has been reintroduced.

According to him, the restriction used to be applied only at land border stations, adding that all

rice imports through land borders by rice traders would attract the prevailing import duty of 10

per cent with 60 per cent levy.

“Over the years importation has been restricted to the seaports because border authorities have

found it difficult to effectively monitor and control importation of rice.
