Dakar port: self-checks before arrival clearance
Before clearance at Dakar, check documents and the arrival process, then plan collection.

Key points
- French is the official document language; invoice and packing list must match the certificate.
- Dakar serves Mali and Burkina Faso; check axle-load and height limits before inland transfer.
- This compiles public rules for pre-shipment checks; applicable categories, inspection bodies and documents are confirmed by the destination authority and the importer.
