NewsOnline Nigeria reports that the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has again adjusted the foreign exchange (FX) rate for duties to N1, 238.17 per dollar.
This represents a 6.8 per cent decrease compared to N1,246.66/$ displayed on April 8.
The rate adopted by customs was observed yesterday.
It fell below the official foreign exchange rate, which closed at N1,248.5/$ on Tuesday at the Nigerian Autonomous Foreign Exchange Market (NAFEM).
The drop in the FX rate for customs tariffs and duties is coming amid the Central Bank of Nigeria‘s (CBN) effort to stabilise the naira.
On Monday, the apex bank announced the sales of forex to the bureau de change (BDC) operators at the rate of N1,101/$.
The bank reduced its rate for dollar allocation to BDCs from N1,251/$ announced on March 25.
To further strengthen the naira, the financial regulator also directed all banks to stop the use of foreign currency-denominated collaterals for naira loans.
