Nigerians will pay more to procure Nigerian Standard Passport.
This was disclosed on Thursday by the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS).
NIS Public Relations Officer (PRO), ACI A.S. Akinlabi, announced the upward review which will take effect from September 1, 2025.
According to a statement by Akinlabi, the new fees will apply only to applications made within Nigeria.
“The review which only affects Passport Application fees made in Nigeria, now set a new fee threshold for 32-page with 5-year validity at N100,000 and 64-page with 10-year validity at N200,000,” the statement read.
It further clarified that application fees for Nigerians in the diaspora remain unchanged at $150 for the 32-page, five-year passport and $230 for the 64-page, 10-year passport.
The service said the adjustment was aimed at maintaining the quality and integrity of the Nigerian passport while ensuring accessibility for citizens.
