CTN: What You Need to Know for Sierra Leone

What is the CTN?

The CTN is a mandatory shipment document for cargo destined to Sierra Leone. It provides customs with shipment data before arrival and is required to avoid fines and discharge delays. Required for Freetown-bound cargo.

Why It Matters

Mandatory: No certificate, no clearance - fines apply for non-compliance.
Accuracy: Container numbers, cargo value and consignee details must exactly match the Bill of Lading.
Timing: Submit before vessel departure to avoid origin and destination delays.
