Vehicle directory · Coming soon

Canada to Ghana and Nigeria, vehicle trade without the guesswork.

We are building a directory that connects Canadian vehicle sellers with buyers, importers, shippers, clearing agents and inspectors in West Africa. Join the waitlist and we will contact you before launch.

How it works

Citi Sighs is a directory and introductions service. We list vetted participants and pass on enquiries. We never hold money, vehicle titles or vehicles, and every sale is agreed directly between buyer and seller.

Know Ghana's rules before you ship

Since October 1, 2026, the Ghana Standards Authority has been enforcing its used-vehicle import guidelines. Vehicles that do not comply are refused entry on arrival.

  • No vehicles more than 10 years past their date of manufacture.
  • Left-hand drive only; right-hand-drive vehicles are barred.
  • No salvaged vehicles with major flood, fire or structural damage.
  • A Certificate of Conformance from an approved inspection body before shipment.
