The Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON), has notified IOE&IT Corporate Member XDS Solutions that the Federal Ministry of Finance (Nigeria) has introduced an additional requirement of the SONCAP program.
XDS Solutions advises fellow members that the new requirement mandates that all courier shipments valid, or not valid for Forex, must now also apply for a Form M and follow SONCAP procedures.
This affects products being exported to Nigeria and will be required for shipment clearance at Nigeria Customs Ports and Borders.
