The Nigerian government has updated its online immigration portal for submitting applications for tourism and business visas, visa-on-arrival and passports.
Key Points:
- Beginning May 7, those applying for tourism and business visas, visa-on-arrival and new passports must use a new portal website to submit applications.
- Passport and business and tourism visa applications can be submitted through this website.
- Visa-on-arrival applications must be submitted through this website.
