The Federal Government through the Nigerian Immigration Service has increased the fee for the Nigerian Passport by 42%.
In a statement signed by the Public Relations Officer of the Service, DCI KT Udo, in Abuja, the service said the review will take effect from 1st September, 2024.

According to the statement, based on the review, 32-page Passport booklet with 5 year validity previously charged at Thirty-five Thousand Naira (N35,000.00) will now be Fifty Thousand Naira (N50,000.00) only; while 64-page Passport booklet with 10 year validity which was Seventy Thousand Naira (N70,000.00) will be One Hundred Thousand Naira (N100,000.00) only.

The statement noted that the fees remain unchanged in Diaspora.

While it regrets any inconvenience this increase might cause prospective applicants, the Nigerian immigrant Service assured Nigerians of unwavering commitment to transparency and quality service delivery at all times.
