The Nigeria Customs Service has extended the deadline for the Fast Track migration exercise to January 2026, giving importers more time to comply.
The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has announced an extension of the deadline for the Fast Track migration exercise from December 2025 to January 2026. The extension was granted following requests from stakeholders who cited the need for more time to complete the migration process. The Fast Track system is designed to facilitate faster clearance of goods at Nigerian ports and borders. Comptroller-General of Customs emphasized that the extension should not be seen as a lack of commitment to the reform process, but rather as a demonstration of the service's willingness to work with stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition.
