The dataset comprises the detailed results of the ex-ante assessment of the AfCFTA impacts on the Nigerian economy. The assessment was conducted using the JRC DEMETRA model calibrated with the 2019 Social Accounting Matrix of Nigeria (El Meligi et al. 2024). The results comprise two liberalisation schedules (tariff-only and tariffs&NTMs) across four alternative liberalisation schedules (REV, AGR, INT,

RCA). The timeframe for the analysis is 2021-2035.
