Export License
Nigerian Export Promotion Council registration to legally export goods from Nigeria.
Quick overview
Export licensing registers your business with the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC), the legal requirement for exporting goods from Nigeria.
Businesses looking to export agricultural produce, manufactured goods, solid minerals, or other products from Nigeria.
Exporting without NEPC registration is illegal and can result in goods being held at ports, fines, or an inability to access export incentive schemes.
Register before your first export shipment, and well ahead of any deadline tied to an international buyer or contract.
Why Export License matters
Business value
Export License keeps your business in good standing, which matters every time you're assessed by a bank, investor, or partner.
Compliance value
Regulatory bodies can penalise or restrict non-compliant businesses, sometimes without much notice.
Strategic benefit
Clean compliance records speed up due diligence during funding rounds, tenders, and partnerships.
Risk of skipping this
Missed or incomplete filings compound over time and become more expensive and complex to resolve.
