Clearance Port

Cotonou

Benin is less a destination than a doorway. Buyers who use Cotonou well are distributing into the wider region, not keeping the car at home.

A re-export port

Cotonou functions as a redistribution hub with relatively light duty on used imports, so a unit can be landed and moved onward with less cost than entering some neighbours directly.

Paperwork for onward movement

If the car will leave Benin, the export documents have to anticipate that from the start. We prepare the invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin with the onward move in mind.

For whom

Left-hand drive is standard. This route suits traders and regional dealers; tell us where the car is ultimately going and we will quote into the port so you can compare with shipping direct.
