CBN Stops Price Verification System As Criteria For Imports 

We refer to the circular dated August 17, 2023 referenced TED/FEM/PUB/FPC/001/008 and titled “GO-LIVE OF THE CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA PRICE VERIFICATION SYSTEM PORTAL” on the deployment of the Price Verification System (PVS). 

In view of recent developments in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market, the CBN hereby discontinues the Price Verification System (PVS). 

Consequently, with effect from July 01, 2024 all applications for Form ‘M’ shall be validated without the Price Verification Report generated from the Price Verification Portal. 

For the avoidance of doubt, by this circular the Price Verification Report is no longer a requirement for the completion of a Form ‘M’. 

Please note and be guided accordingly.
