CUSTOMS & DOCUMENTS

Does shipping to Africa require customs clearance?

Shipments entering an African country from another customs territory will normally need to go through customs clearance. Requirements are determined by the destination country, so the documents, import restrictions and applicable duties can differ considerably between destinations.

Make sure the shipment information is complete and accurate before collection. Customs authorities may need information about the goods, their value, origin and purpose before releasing the shipment for delivery.

When customs clearance applies, you may need to provide:

  • Detailed description of the goods

  • Declared value

  • Country of origin

  • Commercial or proforma invoice

  • Reason for sending the goods

  • Commodity or tariff information

  • Sender and recipient details

DELIVERY SPEED

How long does shipping to Africa take?

Delivery time depends on the departure country, destination and selected service. For urgent parcel deliveries, Priority Express can reach international destinations worldwide in approximately 24–72 hours.

Freight and less urgent services may require additional transit time, particularly when shipments need customs processing or are being delivered outside major logistics hubs. The estimated delivery time for your exact route is shown when you enter your shipment details.

Delivery may take longer because of:

  • Customs clearance

  • Remote collection or delivery locations

  • Public holidays and non-working days

  • Incorrect or incomplete delivery information

  • Special handling requirements

  • Disruptions within the transport network
