In a move to boost tradeefficiency in Nigeria, the Nigeria Customs Service NCS has integrated the Central Bank of Nigeria CBN, the Federal Ministry of Finance, the Federal Inland Revenue Service FIRS, and other key stakeholders in the trade value chain of BOdogwu platform.
The BOdogwu platform is a newly introduced digital trade facilitation and integration system developed by the Nigeria Customs Service NCS to streamline and harmonize the countrys international trade processes.
Designed as a centralized platform, BOdogwu connects key government agencies connected to the Federal Governments finances and others with Customs systems to enable real-time data sharing, faster decision-making, and seamless clearance of goods.
The platform is aimed at reducing bureaucratic bottlenecks, increasing transparency, and enhancing compliance through automation and inter-agency collaboration. It aligns with global best practices in single-window trade facilitation and supports Nigerias drive toward a more efficient, digitized, and investor-friendly trade environment.
