PRICE answer

How much does a used Caterpillar 336 cost delivered to Lagos?

A used Caterpillar 336 delivered to Lagos (Apapa / Tin Can) is quoted in two parts: the FOB price of the unit and the freight and insurance to your port. We do not publish one landed figure, because duty, VAT and port charges depend on the HS code and on your clearing agent. The FOB figure for a specific unit is confirmed in writing within 24 hours.

What the delivered price is made of

Machine price, FOB the Chinese loading port.
Ocean freight: a 20-tonne excavator normally moves on a flat rack or by RoRo; it does not fit a standard 40ft container.
Insurance, usually a small percentage of CIF value.
Duty and VAT in Nigeria, assessed on the HS code and the declared value.
Port charges and inland delivery after clearance.

Import notes for Nigeria

Main ports: Apapa and Tin Can Island, Lagos.
Duty on used excavators is assessed per HS code and declared value; total charges of roughly 20-35% of CIF are commonly quoted. Confirm with your broker.
SONCAP certification can be arranged before shipment when the buyer requires it.

We quote FOB in writing first and add freight only after the port and sailing are confirmed. That way the number you compare is the machine, not a freight estimate that changes next week.

When this answer does not apply

This answer does not give a landed total. Duty, VAT and port charges at Lagos (Apapa / Tin Can) depend on the HS code, the declared value and your clearing agent. Any figure we quote for freight is tied to a sailing and is re-confirmed before booking.

How the price is built

The machine price is quoted FOB the Chinese loading port and confirmed in writing. Ocean freight and marine insurance are quoted separately for your port, and duty, VAT and port charges are confirmed by your clearing agent. That is why no single landed figure is published here.

Where to go next

What to send for a firm answer

The model, or the tonnage class if you have not chosen a model.
The destination port, so the CIF figure is for the port you will actually clear at.
Whether an inspection or a third-party report is required before the balance.
Any certificate the destination asks for, such as SONCAP, PVoC or SABER.

Common questions

Why is there no single delivered price on this page?

Because duty, VAT and port charges change with the HS code and the clearing agent. We publish the FOB basis and quote freight to your port separately, so the number you compare is the machine.

How fast is the CIF quote?

Within 24 hours after the destination port and inspection scope are confirmed. If a sailing has to be checked, we say so instead of giving a guess.

Is the price negotiable?

The FOB figure depends on the specific unit, its hours and its condition. Ask for the unit file first; the number follows the machine.
