Nigeria Rolls Out New Visa On Arrival Policy For Africans

In December 2019, President Muhammadu Buhari said the country will start issuing a visa on arrival at the point of entry to all persons holding passports of African countries, effective January 2020. Speaking at the 2019 Aswan Forum for Sustainable Peace and Development in Africa, in Egypt, the president said the decision was to bring down barriers that have hindered the free movement of people within the continent. Checks on the Nigeria Immigration portal showed that the Service (NIS) has rolled out a new Visa on Arrival Application Process for all Business Travelers and African Union Countries except ECOWAS member Countries.
