Send a Package from Benin City to Any North American Country — Air & Sea Freight.

We deliver to Canada, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. Our coverage includes Canada (Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary, Ottawa, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Halifax, Quebec City, Mississauga, Brampton, Surrey, Hamilton), Mexico (Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Puebla, Tijuana, Cancún, Mérida, Querétaro, León, Juárez), Central America (Guatemala City, San Salvador, Tegucigalpa, Managua, San José, Panama City, Belize City) and the Caribbean (Kingston, Santo Domingo, Port-au-Prince, Havana, San Juan, Nassau, Bridgetown, Port of Spain, Castries, St. George's, Basseterre, Roseau, St. John's, Willemstad, Oranjestad). We also have a dedicated service page for the United States — message us for details. Some destinations have sanctions or restricted access — Cuba has US embargo-related banking complexity, Haiti has ongoing instability, and Venezuela (South America) has sanctions. Message us with the exact destination and we'll confirm current feasibility.

Simply message us on WhatsApp at 0813 094 7747 with your pickup address in Benin City, the destination country and city, and your item description and approximate weight. We'll recommend air or sea freight and reply with a price. Our rider collects from your door, and we handle all documentation, customs clearance and delivery to your recipient.

Every shipment is quoted individually because the rate depends on the weight and dimensions of your item, the chosen mode (air or sea), your pickup location in Benin City, the destination country and city, and any applicable customs duty and taxes. Air freight is faster and priced higher. Sea freight is more cost-effective for heavy or bulky cargo. Canada and Mexico generally have the highest volume of traffic, so rates to Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Mexico City are often the most competitive. Message us on WhatsApp with your item details and destination and we'll send you an exact, no-obligation price within minutes.

Air freight from Benin City to North America typically takes 4 to 9 business days door-to-door, depending on the destination. Canada (Toronto, Montreal) and Mexico City usually arrive within the shorter end of that range. Caribbean and Central American destinations sometimes take longer due to fewer direct connections. Sea freight takes 18 to 40 days depending on the destination port — US East Coast is faster than West Coast, and Caribbean ports are often among the faster options. Express documents can arrive in 3 to 5 business days.

Yes. We prepare the Nigerian export documentation, clear your shipment through Nigerian customs, and coordinate with Canadian customs brokers (CBSA — Canada Border Services Agency) for import clearance. Required documents typically include a commercial invoice, packing list, and depending on the item, a certificate of origin or specific health certificates. Canada charges GST/HST (5–15% depending on province) plus customs duty under the Customs Tariff. Personal gifts below CAD 60 may qualify for relief. We guide you through exactly what is needed.

Yes. Mexico has strict import rules — we coordinate with Mexican customs brokers (SAT — Servicio de Administración Tributaria) and prepare the required documentation under the TIGIE tariff schedule. Mexico charges 16% IVA on most imports. Personal shipments under USD 50 may qualify for relief, and shipments under USD 1,000 have a simplified clearance process. Commercial shipments require a Mexican tax ID (RFC) and possibly an import license. We advise you upfront on the requirements.

Yes. Each Caribbean and Central American country has its own customs regime, and we coordinate with local brokers in each. CAFTA-DR (Central America-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement) applies to goods originating within the member states — since Nigerian goods don't originate in the region, they're subject to each country's external tariff. CARICOM (Caribbean Community) similarly applies preferential rates only to intra-CARICOM trade. We prepare the correct documentation for each destination.

USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement) replaced NAFTA in 2020 and governs trade between the three North American countries. USMCA preferential tariffs apply only to goods that originate within the US, Mexico or Canada. Since Nigerian goods don't qualify under USMCA rules of origin, they're subject to each country's standard external tariff — HTSUS in the US, TIGIE in Mexico, and the Customs Tariff in Canada. We advise you on the correct tariff classification for your goods.

Yes, but with significant complexity due to the ongoing US embargo. Shipping to Cuba requires careful compliance with OFAC regulations — shipments must not involve US-origin goods, US financial institutions, or US persons in a way that would violate the embargo. We handle Cuba-bound shipments on a case-by-case basis and advise you upfront on the documentation and routing requirements. Shipments are typically routed via Mexico or Panama to avoid US jurisdiction.

Yes, but Haiti has ongoing security and infrastructure challenges that can affect delivery. Port-au-Prince and major cities remain reachable, but transit times and reliability can vary. We advise checking with us before shipping anything urgent to Haiti and can provide a realistic assessment of current conditions. Deliveries to the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and other Caribbean islands are generally more reliable.

Restrictions vary by country but common prohibitions include narcotics, firearms and ammunition, explosives, counterfeit goods, certain agricultural products, meat and dairy products, fresh produce, some medicines, endangered wildlife products, and hazardous materials. Canada has strict food import rules via the CFIA. Mexico restricts certain agricultural products. The US has additional restrictions (separate page). Caribbean countries vary. Message us before shipping anything unusual and we will advise you.

Yes, with country-specific limitations. Packaged, shelf-stable foods such as dried pepper, egusi, ogbono, garri, smoked fish, packaged snacks and non-perishable Nigerian groceries are typically allowed in most North American countries. Canada and the US have stricter rules on meat and dairy. Some Caribbean countries require specific health certificates. Fresh meat, dairy and fresh produce are restricted almost everywhere. We'll advise on packaging and declaration requirements for your destination.

Yes. Vehicles are shipped via roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) or in a container by sea freight. Transit time is typically 20 to 40 days to North America depending on the destination port. Import regulations vary significantly — Canada requires the vehicle to meet Transport Canada regulations (15-year rule for non-compliant vehicles), Mexico has strict rules on used vehicle imports, and Caribbean countries have their own regimes. Contact us for a vehicle shipping quote and guidance for your specific destination.

Yes. We handle commercial shipments of any size — air freight for time-sensitive stock, less than container loads (LCL) and full container loads (FCL) by sea freight for bulk cargo. Canada and Mexico are Nigeria's largest trading partners in the region. We work with importers, distributors and e-commerce sellers who ship regularly to North America. Ask about our business account rates.

Yes. Every shipment is handled with care, and we offer cargo insurance on request. Coverage is comprehensive across all North American destinations. For valuable items, declare the correct value when booking so you are fully covered against loss or damage in transit.

Yes. Every shipment on this route is assigned a tracking reference and you receive status updates by WhatsApp or phone from pickup, through Nigerian customs, during transit, and after destination-country customs clearance until final delivery. Send your tracking ID to 0813 094 7747 on WhatsApp for a real-time update.

Yes. If you ship regularly from Nigeria to one or more North American countries — for e-commerce, distribution, corporate supply or retail — we offer business account rates, scheduled pickups and monthly invoicing. Ask us about the business account when you message.

We accept bank transfers, cash on pickup and online payments. Corporate clients can request invoicing and monthly account billing.

Our Benin City office is open Monday to Sunday, 8:00am to 8:00pm. WhatsApp and phone support is available 24/7 for urgent shipments and enquiries.
