Packing for Nigeria customs
Keep medicines in original sealed packs, cushion glass and liquids, use a rigid carton, and attach prescription plus invoice on the outside. Cold-chain items need 2°C–8°C insulated packaging sized to transit time into Nigeria.
- Do not decant tablets or syrups into unlabelled containers.
- 2–3 inches of cushioning around glass, vials, and bottles; fill empty space so nothing rattles.
- Documents (prescription, pharmacy bill, KYC, declaration) go in a waterproof pouch on the carton exterior.
- Insulated gel-pack packaging only when the medicine requires 2°C–8°C — never freeze insulin.
