We have received notification from the Nigerian Port Authority of a requirement for a Cargo tracking note by Nigerian authorities. We understand this  is effective from a bill of lading date of 11th January, 2010. For a copy of the notification please contact customer service. We apologize for the late notice , however this has only recently been received.  We are continuing our investigations in Nigeria to gain further information on the requirements. We expect  a meeting to be held between the shipping community and the Nigerian Ports Authority next week to clarify the requirements.

In the meantime we encourage all shippers to Nigerian ports to contact the CTN issuing agency and proceed with the required application. Form M requirements are not changed. We will update when further info is received.

We understand that the below is the sole agent of Antanser Afrique which has been nominated by the NPA as the only authorized agent to issue CTN.
