Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) Set to Increase Tariffs for Infrastructure Upgrades


The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) has secured the necessary approvals to raise its tariffs, a decision aimed at enhancing port infrastructure and upgrading equipment across the country. This move is expected to improve efficiency, reduce delays, and modernize port operations to meet international standards.


The tariff adjustment comes as part of NPA’s broader efforts to attract investment, boost trade, and ensure that Nigeria’s ports remain competitive within the region. By increasing revenue through these revised charges, the authority plans to invest in modern cargo handling equipment, expand port facilities, and improve overall service delivery.


While this development may lead to higher costs for shipping and logistics companies, industry stakeholders hope that the long-term benefits—such as faster turnaround times and improved operational capacity—will outweigh the immediate financial impact.


The NPA remains committed to working with port users and stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition and minimize disruptions.
