Are you a holder of an African passport looking to get a Visa-on-Arrival (VoA) for Nigeria?

Here's what you need to know:
Online applications only.

Before applying you need to have the following:

- Valid Passport with minimum of six months validity
- Valid return ticket
- Address in Nigeria or Hotel Reservation
- Payment card (online payments only)
- Minimum of 72 hours (3 working days) pre-travel
Application Portal: portal.immigration.gov.ng/visa/freshVisa

Apply online,submit required docs & pay using a card

Application is processed & approval confirmation/letter emailed within 2 working days(approval mandatory pre-travel)

Arrive at Port of Entry for Biometric Enrolment & Visa Issuance
.@nigimmigration says: "Successful online payment is not an approval. Applicant should not proceed to Nigeria until receipt of Visa-on-Arrival Approval Letter."
@nigimmigration IMPORTANT TO NOTE: Nigeria's Visa-on-Arrival is not a 'just show up & pay for a visa at a port of entry' Visa. There are guidelines that need to be followed.
@nigimmigration You will obtain the VoA at a Nigerian port of entry but you need to have paid an applied ONLINE, & received approval PRE-TRAVEL. @nigimmigration promises a 48-hour (2 working days) turnaround time for the required approval.
