The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has launched a locally developed registration portal, B-Odogwu to provide a unified system for stakeholders, including shippers, terminal operators, and traders, to access and manage their information system.
The Comptroller Kano/Jigawa Command Dalhat Abubakar, unveiled the program in Kano Tuesday and described it safer, faster, and indigenous-owned system designed by the NCS for easy transactions.
He said the introduction of the B-Bodogwu system was a significant step towards achieving a single National entry window and promoting transparency in trade facilitation.
According to him, “The new system is designed to ensure reliability, transparency, and compliance in trade facilitation.”
Abubakar however stressed that the NCS has demonstrated competence and dedication in transitioning from service providers to the new system.
He added that the key features and benefits of the B-Odogwu system include faster processing and reduced downtime, enhanced reliability, and transparency.
Other benefits are improved compliance and reduced lack of compliance, a single national entry window with a single data movement, and trade facilitation and transparency.
He disclosed that “The NCS has commenced training for terminal operators, shippers, traders, and licensed agents to ensure a smooth transition to the new system.“
He further stated that ” Over 16,000 declarations have been made on the B’Odogwu system since its introduction in January 2025.”
