US Mission in Nigeria Announces Changes in Visa Rules

Posted by Justtours News

The US government has announced that most Nigerians applying for non-immigrant visas will now only get single-entry three-month visas.

The US Mission in Nigeria said this was to reciprocate Nigeria’s visa policy for Americans.

“Effective today, most non-immigrant & non-official visas for Nigerian citizens will be single-entry with 3-month validity,” the embassy stated.
Before this new policy, the US used to issue a two-year visa validity with multiple entries to many Nigerians.
Many others got a five-year visa with multiple entries.

However, in a statement issued on Tuesday, the embassy described the new policy as part of its global visa reciprocity process, which addresses the treatment American citizens receive in other countries.
