Why SLP Express for the Nigeria lane
We have worked the Nigeria lane since 2008, and trust on a route like this is earned parcel by parcel — most of them family boxes. SLP Express has served Hyderabad since 2008 as an independent multi-carrier service, comparing suitable DHL, FedEx, UPS & more options by route, contents and weight. None of that saving is buried: the box is weighed and measured with you watching, photographed on your side and ours, then closed with our branded SLP seal so it stays recognisably ours right up to the doorstep in Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt. A real Hyderabad team answers on WhatsApp day and night.
Sending a parcel from Hyderabad to Nigeria
Picture it: you have a box of clothes and home medicines for your brother in Lagos, and you want it moving by the weekend. One WhatsApp message is all it takes — what's inside, a rough weight, and the Hyderabad area where we should call. Our team checks the contents against current NCS rules, comes back with a wholesale DHL or FedEx figure, and agrees a pickup window once your exact address is on file. No depot, no paper forms, no queuing — the entire arrangement lives on WhatsApp and at your doorstep.
The parcel is weighed in the open and packed to our three-layer standard while you watch. Our team draws up the commercial invoice and customs declaration, and by that same evening a tracking number is in your hands. From there the box moves door-to-door on DHL or FedEx into Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt, with a WhatsApp update at every milestone.

Nigeria customs & duty reality
Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) clears every arrival. The key point for senders: a de-minimis relief in force since September 2025 lets eligible express consignments up to USD 300 through free of import duty and related taxes — capped at four importations per person per year.
📋 We prepare
- Commercial invoice with an honest, itemised value — we prepare this
- Recipient's full Nigerian address, including city/state and a working phone number
- Sender ID (passport or Aadhaar) for export KYC
- For medicines: prescription or doctor's letter on letterhead
⚖️ Limits to know
- Eligible express consignments valued at USD 300 or less are exempt from import duties and related taxes
- The de-minimis exemption is limited to four importations per person per year
- Goods over the threshold, or that are prohibited or restricted, are not covered by the relief
- NCS enforces strict checks against invoice under-declaration and duty evasion
🚫 Common hold reasons
- Vague item descriptions on the invoice — the most common hold reason
- Declared value that doesn't match the actual contents
- Undeclared high-value items
- Banned items: fresh produce, meat, narcotics, weapons
💰 Duty reality
Destination customs duty for a parcel to Nigeria depends on the contents, declared value, tariff classification, and the decision of Nigeria Customs Service (NCS). We prepare an accurate itemised invoice and explain known requirements before dispatch, but we do not promise a duty amount, clearance outcome, or release date. If the carrier or authority requests more information, we help you respond with the shipment records available to us.
How we pack your Nigeria parcel — right in front of you
Nothing leaves Hyderabad unsealed. Each Nigeria box is assembled to our three-layer standard — a sealed inner layer, cushioning, corner protection and an export-grade carton — and finished with the branded SLP mark so it's unmistakably ours in the network. The materials travel with us, so you simply hand over the goods. Fragile and heirloom pieces ride in a wooden crate lined with bubble-wrap; food, pickles and liquids are double-sealed and leak-proof as our default.
What the process actually looks like
Sending to Nigeria for the first time?
A first parcel to Nigeria runs in four simple steps, all handled for you. First, message the item list and your Hyderabad area on WhatsApp, and our team confirms what NCS allows and rates a wholesale figure. Second, we collect free of charge, arriving with the packing materials. Third, the box is weighed in the open and packed in front of you. Fourth, that same evening a tracking number reaches your phone — and through to delivery in Nigeria, our people stay reachable around the clock if customs has a question.
📦 Tracking
Expect a DHL or FedEx number by the night of pickup, then a short WhatsApp note at each real stage of the journey — collection in Hyderabad, departure from India, in transit, Nigeria arrival, customs clearance, out for delivery and the final confirmed handover.
🚪 Recipient not home?
If nobody answers at the door, the carrier retries or parks the parcel at a local pickup point. We keep an eye on the scans and message you to arrange the redelivery, so a box never drifts back to India.
