The Liquified Petroleum Gas Cylinder, commonly known as LPG Cylinder, is regarded by the Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON) as a high-risk item of import. This is due to its use in gas storage for domestic cooking and several other purposes in Nigeria. To protect the end users, the SON has taken measures to ensure that the item passes through repeated scrutiny before being imported into Nigeria.
To import LPG Cylinders into the country, the Importer must contact SON directly, as the necessary Product Certificate and SONCAP Certificates cannot be issued by the IAFs.
*Note that for this products including its accessories, Product Certificates (PCs) and SONCAP Certificates (SCs) cannot be issued by the IAFs.
For further information, or to obtain the required certification for LPG Cylinders, please contact:
